With a gap in the 2026 Christmas schedule for a returning children's favourite, how about a tender for plague victim prankster Nobody, a sepia psycho ghost girl, or a Happy Day of layline-fuelled psychosis?
#SapphireAndSteel, #ChildrenOfTheStones, and #NobodysHouse provide a feast of youthful 1970s TV chills for Hannah and Pete this time at Ray's... with Terrifying Children?! 💎 Podbean tinyurl.com/3a9s3bd8 🗿 Spotify tinyurl.com/2p69h7kn 👻 YouTube tinyurl.com/3w624f8y

One of my favourite weekends of the year! Looking forward to returning, with a nice mix of guests. Always tend to find the behind-the-camera ones most interesting.
