I saw this in 1975 when I was eleven. I've been wanting to see it again ever since. thank you.It still looks good aged 47 . I hope one day the powers that be will do a digitally cleaned up dvd. Did you get your user name from Sparky comic; it had great characters like Hungry Horace, Keyhole Kate, Pansy Potter. Childhood in the seventies was pretty exciting, then the internet came along and it could all be retrieved.

Thanks Willie for posting this excellent series for us. I was five when it was first shown, and one of my earliest memories is Dad smashing the TV set! I still say "the bad wires" when we pass under pylons to this day. I missed the repeat on UK Gold, so you have provided me with a brilliant way of re-viewing it. A great series, great story, and even cool theme tune by Paddy Kingsland (did the music for Hitch Hikers Guide too). Thanks again Willie - you're a star!

There was an unsubstantuated theory that last years riots where in part caused by massive solar flares,effecting behaviour watching this, I began to wonder! Ahh, Bob Baker and Dave Martin, excellent writers, They wrote for DR Who in the 1970's, and created the character of K9, and this was also one of those TV programes that has stayed with me over the years.

sassy68  thank you so much, for years i have asked everyone "do you remember the pylons?" no one did! I didnt remember much except those terifying pylons. watching it this time i remember more and now i know why my memories were so scary.

i loved this. got the VHS. i just watched 'Sky' from 1976 on youtube, which i never saw back then. i love the Quote about Davey Gordon, some way in to the adventure .. he can smell evil ' even when there isn't any ' classic. the haunting pylon noise stays with me still to thisday, even tho in real they mainly hum and crackle. which is as scary. nasty.  if you like this you must surely watch Terry Nations 'Survivors' from 1975/1976 - is the beautifully bleak 'grown up' 'Changes' great TV.
