Wonderful film this has always been my and my late mothers favourite, I have always liked Eric Portman so that is why I watched the film in the first place. I like to think that Mr Culpeper was some sort of Angel figure at the end coming and suddenly disappearing to the pilgrim's as they one by one receive their miracles and the way that they listened when he spoke. I think also this film has got better as the years have gone by because we are now looking at what has gone forever!

Hammer studio's was actually filming Taste The Blood Of Dracula round about the same time these two schoolgirls apparently saw this Highgate Vampire creature. So maybe they saw Chris Lee ' dolled up ' as Dracula? 🤔

I recall him being on the James whale radio show on Talk Radio many years ago talking about The so-called Highgate Vampire. Very interesting chap!! I wonder if Mr Manchester realises that round about the same time these two schoolgirls apparently ' spotted ' the so-called Highgate there was actually a Hammer Horror film being filmed and some scenes were shot at the said cemetery. This was 197O. And I seriously doubt Mr Manchester actually went to college to train to be a Catholic priest and I doupt he is ' recognised at all by any orthodox church. I wonder if he's seen Tobe Hooper's Salem's Lot? (197O). 😅

This was the start of western decline,... later would follow the global war on terror and then the war comes home

There is nothing as good as this on Radio 4 now.

I still love it several years later.

The presenter? Prudom DID rob the couple he shot.....he stole their car at minimum.

Painting wet on wet is almost impossible to fix.

So You know.... You can get this in book form, too! Go on, read it... There is more. These are snippets from it. 🇮🇪🎉🎊🍀

Thanks for Uploading.

1:21 and 1 more to reach 8 billion.

Many happy memories of listening to this with my parents in the 1980s. Saturday teatimes while we cooked dinner. We were a very Radio 4 household and my first words as a toddler were BBC and Michael Foot!! Some of it went over my head at the time so wonderful to revisit it as an adult!

Oh yes please!!😊

Great memories. I much prefer Robert Robinson. Davies always sounds smug even presenting his art craft and music of the popular song show he maintained his smug disposition.

😂 This did not age well.

thanks for uploading, this is wonderfully done.

True research tells you they wanted him dead long before & and the evidence of the civilian murder is suspect when you look beneath the surface of it.

This is radio 4

Tolerance and assimilation of those who settle in UK can ease tensions but lets not forget it should not just be the host country that makes all the concessions. The incomers too have to make concessions to integrate. It is a two way street and incomers as well as host countries have a part to play . But what when particular groups have a different code of values and ethics that clash with the host's code.? As for religion it can be divisive and secularism is necessary.so laws are applied the same equally to all people. We can not have parallel societies within a society with their own laws otherwise we may as well go back to a tribal system and we moved away from that because there were too many wars.The lady who keeps on about focusing on similarities as opposed to differences also does not consider that some people of other cultures within our society want fervently to maintain those differences as part of an identity and not have their culture diluted by ours. It is not racist to have concerns about some religious or cultural practices and those who use labels to vilify anyone who does; are entirely missing the point . She is making so many assumptions.

The first caller was a Mr Bullingham from Cheltenham. A quick Google search reveals that a Mr Bullingham was a Tory mayor of Cheltenham around that time. I'm sure that's just a coincidence.

Have you got the next days episode from the 9th December?

imagine having one very interesting person as a guest and you have to interrupt him to play stupid songs.how ridiculous

I feel embarrassed for Nicky. Love Oleg’s story - very brave man.

I love Mel and Sue but man this is cringe

Mel amd Sue are famous legends of comedy.

13:16 Steve Madden Doing The News & Presenting his Radio 2 Show at Broadcasting House

This was when Radio 2 was well worth listening to, especially during the early hours. Steve Madden left Radio 2 in October 1998, around the same time as John Dunn retired from Drivetime and was replaced by Katrina from Katrina and the Waves (I believe it was her reward for winning Eurovision in 1997). Madden had a namesake with a brand of shoes, hence one of his catchphrases used to be: "what more could a boy want from a pair of shoes?" or something like that - he also had other catchphrases that he used on air (something to do with a milkman, perhaps?) but I cannot recall them at this moment. Radio 2 used to be so short-staffed during the early hours and so the presenters themselves had to read the news because no duty newsreader was available. I used to enjoy the 1.30 am Pause for Thoughts during the early hours of Wednesday mornings (Tuesday nights in radio listings) when the Reverend Frank Topping (aka the man who had married Ken and Deirdre Barlow in Coronation Street in 1981, lest we forget) did the PFT, which was repeated two hours later at 3.30 am. I had an interest in religion back then as I had started to go to church and so the Rev Topping's messages were really insightful.

Great upload. This is a great listen after Ben Macintyre’s book. Thank you

I've just listened to this after having been very moved by the film. Strangely great and I'm sure I'll watch it again. History used to bore me when i was younger, dry, dusty, irrelevant: now I see it as a Trip, and to have feeling of connectness with the past is something which makes me feel at the same time placed, and timeless.

More please!!

This takes me back to my period of night driving back in the early 90’s. Steve Madden followed by Alex Lester. I remember Steve used to play Van Morrison, Bright Side of the Road and always referred to the “Tommy Cooper “ impression towards the end of the song!!

Never knew this went on telly but it does remind me a bit of the satyrical Smith and Jones Late night Chats ?

I love the town of CHILLINGBOURNE.

Anymore Nightwatch Mystery? Loved this show. Wish ITV had kept it in the schedules

any chance you know where to find more of these episodes? i'm looking for the one that aired on 13th nov 1997 with murray walker as a guest!

8:30 "Full of gluten" God, this really was 1997, wasn't it? That voice is amazing.

2:20 Why does that woman have Elmo on her lap. 4:34 This was deffo before Minogue's massive comeback. 7:20 I guarantee that every single one of them are middle aged-dads in the home countys now.

God, this was the last time I felt good.

Immaculate reading by David Horowitz. Cannot conceive how it could be better .! Thank G*d for his generation of Theatre trained actors : compared with what we have today.!

Kenneth Cranham ( ! ? ) and an annoying kid in the first 3 minutes . ? NOT a good start. It can only get better but I fear the worst...direction seems pretty wooden too .!

Screw ths BBC they are part of the evil scam state

There is a cruel or potentially cruel nasty mentality in so many government bureaucrats in all countries including Britain. That type of degraded character finds a home in such an environment.

Thanks to the Official Secrets Act the British people aren't aloud to know anything about their own history until all the guilty people are dead and even then it's censored.

He missed the penance aspect of the Canterbury pilgrimage for Colpeper, the only one who regularly must appear there as part of his employment.

This was such a lovely movie

Interestingly these legacy shills never mentioned Harry and Meghan. That was a lead story on BBC TV. Also I would enjoy to know what the ratings on this sh$t show were. Globally. Also it seems like there have been 11 million “undocumented” for 30 years. Hmmm… Me’s thinks this MAY be understated. I love Salty Cracker! Be a sub.

30.03 yeah what group were you in, Rolf?:)

Ahhh the ads will sink ypu

I had just in Kent been made redundant, and was immediately snapped up by an erstwhile classmate (now with me an RICS) for the Underground Jubilee Line Extension. Topics: 1. What is your most frightening experience? (me: having to cook for a monastery community) 2. April Fool jokes (Blishen delivers the classic prep school April Fool: "your shoelace is undone") [Music: Mervyn Stutter: "The Story of Edwin Minns"] 3. Collectables. Is anything worth collecting? Maybe crisp packets?
