Just re-watched this today. One of the best of the entire series. Agree that Markoff is deeply sinister, absolutely horrible in fact - in 1979 he gave a couple of my friends nightmares. The actor died a few months later. Red Tower actor was in Softly Softly Taskforce. Welsh Sergeant. Not likeable th...

Just started a re-read today. First two chapters of Rockingdown. Will vote when I finish the lot. It is amazing that so many lines (of lots of Enid's books) are familar when I read them again. Various descriptions, quotes and character traits bring me back to the ages of 10 and 11 when I was devouri...

I just finished the Disappearing Cat re-read (last time was 1984) and revelled in Tupping's nastiness.

his final capitualation into a snivelling coward is apt.

It makes for interesting reading Nick. Good idea about compiling a definitive list.

Even at this early stage I guess that Five Are Together Again will finish in the relegation zone (bottom three).

panic over! found one on ebay.

I ranked my FF in order some time ago. Will dig out the list and post it later.

This particular adaptation of Noddy [with Richard Briers narration] was repeated well into the 1980s. It seems to have vanished off the radar now.

my favourite Brian Bennett LP is The Illustrated London Noise.

Dragons come up fairly regularly on ebay. .I got a complete set of Five Find-Outers earlier this month for £5.50.

I re-read The Clocks and The ABC Murders lately - very satisfying.

I find Curtain to be a powerful work; very engrossing.

Roger Ackroyd has to be up there too.

Thanks Lucky Star.

Are there any editions of The Secret Island that should be avoided ? [re-writes / edits]

I am searching for a 1965 Armada but will settle for later editions if one proves elusive.

Have managed to source replacement copies of all the mid 60s Armada "2/6" Secret series aside from the first one.

Does anybody have a spare for reasonable money

Thank you.
