  • It's hard to imagine now, but Rover scared the shit out of me when I was a little girl

  • Woah, no joke, me too.

    My younger daughter was afraid to go to be last night so I told her about being afraid of the Rover when I was a kid. For some reason, every time I had a fever, I had the same nightmare of being chased by the rover.

  • @Lowerthetone1 I remember reading about that; it's funny how some of the most iconic images in media come about as the result of accidents, budgetary constraints, or impracticality.

  • There must be something about the sand at Portmeirion because when the tides out and the top surface has dried a bit and there's a breeze, it behaves exactly like that, trailing across the beach.

  • @Lostzilla847 shut up thats why!

  • Thinking of going to Portmerion next year for the Prisoner Bash. Anyone been? Any good?

  • The original Rover was a mechanical prop which resembled an iced cake with a blue light on the top and was moved by a go- kart hidden underneath. Unfortunately the driver couldn't see where he was going and was being choked by fumes. The meteorological balloon was a last minute replacement. It was filled with a mixture of air and helium and was pulled on fishing line, sometimes with the shot being printed backwards. Even without the eerie sound effects, this clip still gives me the creeps!

  • It still looks unearthly and sinister.

  • @Lostzilla847 Shutup, that's why!

  • it's just a breast implant!

  • Why did you think a big balloon would stop him?
