An okay Bond movie, falls into a typical 1960s spy flick - the absence of Sean Connery was surely a lack - Believe it or not, with time, OHMSS has become way overrated.

versatile actor and a staple in British TV. I saw him live, in the stage version of Get Some In, in Paignton, summer 1977: they were brilliant and a lot of laughs.

How did you miss Elizabeth Adare, the member of the Tomorrow People who is second in terms of number of episodes as a member of the team (50) behind Nicholas? And a link to Doctor Who is that Peter Davison and then-wife Sandra Dickinson were in 3 episodes together.

Great review of an excellent series. The lorry incident was, I think, to show that Matthew (and later his father, when he touched one of the stones) have some psychic abilities, which the evil landlord (the excellent Ian Cuthbertson) senses and which may explain how they are the only two who are able to resist+thwart Cuthbertson’s evil plans…🤣

I clearly remember watching this in 1977 when I was 8 years old, it was creepy and eerie enough to have a lasting impact! My grandparents lived in Marlborough, so I had visited Avebury and seen the stone circle in person. Many years ago I bought (and I still have) the DVD. Must give it a spin again some day. Thanks for this interesting video 👍

The appearance of the lorry is meant to be a clue that they are trapped in a circle within the circle,this is showing the outside briefly breaking through.The somewhat bigger mystery in the story is where on earth do they get their food from if nothing can get in or out.Watched this on its first screening have to admit I didn't sleep well after the final episode

@@robpinker1458 thanks for that. I had just left school when this was first broadcast and so missed it completely. I reckon the circle of time must be about 10 years given Hendrik retired to the village. So anything that happened in that period is repeated. I also think Hendrik’s plan of total control of the village is thwarted a different way each time. Perhaps Ms Smythe stops him in one loop, Adam in another, the kids in as mother and so on. Great story.

Brilliant show. One that is quite complicated and doesn't patronise its audience. As for Dai, my take is that at first he's a poacher and at the end he's reincarnated as a tinker. Both are people on the margins of society so it makes sense.

Does anyone miss the ubiquitous GB Car Badges we had to display when travelling abroad? Sure, UK (The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland) appears more inclusive, but wasn't it tacit that GB meant the same? (After all, we do not use "The United Kingdom of England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland). Seeing the GB badge make an appearance in this show reminded me of how we forget about subtle changes.

I missed out on this one. I had an afterschool job at our little town's cinema. My mates loved The Children of the Stones. So annoying that there was rarely anything worth watching on telly back then, only for something to be shown at a time when I was busy. Blakes 7 was another show that I never got to see (Different job). I wonder if Gareth Thomas had something to do with this?
