This is in bbc4 tonight. I remember it first time round. I wonder if it will still be so memorable.

I will record it. I would watch tonight but it is a bit too late for me.

It was excellent.

I misheard it when it originally came out and that she was Edna, the invertebrate woman. I was very young

BBC 4 at 10.00 pm .
I've seen it recently and the acting is outstanding.

Patricia Hayes was brilliant as Edna.

I remember watching it years ago.

It was very depressing.

I won’t be re-visiting it, no.

Just noticed on Play for Today something called Pendas Fen. It’s said to be very unsettling and has only been shown on tv a few times since it was first made. I don’t think I’m going to watch it at the moment as I’m planning a few after dark walks and don’t want to scare myself but when I’m back home I’m intrigued to see what it’s like.

It was absolutely brilliant

I still called recitals recticals. Mispronounced it decades ago and it’s lodged in my brain forever.
