Re: Space 1999
 

I can still see in my mind an episode of Quatermass where the lead of the show walks into a tunnel and the floor starts to to move up and down like the sea.
This show,
with spine-tingling music accompanied with eerie colour's of deep purple and blue,
Scared the **** out of me,I don,t mind telling you.

Not to mention the odd sound boom that appeared now and then .. :D

The bloke who played Dr Smith,brilliant....the campest villan in the cosmos......"the pain,ooh the pain":eek: Mind you the 60's Batman & Robin had me in stitches when i watched when i was older.Camp is not the word.:rolleyes:

Re: Space 1999
 

I loved Lost in Space also, although the music could freak me out some times. Also enjoy the Batman series.

Did a really scary show from the 60s called Dark Shadows ever make it over there? It was about vampires, wolfmen, ghosts, witches. My Mom watched it evry day at 4 oclock and I was absolutely petrified of going to bed at night and of the dark. Stupid me still would watch it with the fam each afternoon! Man that had some spooky music/sound effects too!

Yes,Dr Smith.What a character he was.
They wouldn't have been lost in space without him and his loveable comedy sidekick the Robot,
Who was my favourite apart from Robby.
