Back on November 22 1987, in Chicago, a station was playing this story. During this broadcast, the signal was hacked and replaced by a person in a Max Headroom mask. It lasted a few minutes but made the news the next day. They never found out who did it.

This is a spooky, creepy, scary, foggy Ten Little Indians thriller set in a lighthouse. There's fear and dread behind every shadowy corner. Watch it at night with the lights off.

I have to say, Tom Baker looks good in a bowler hat!

Former script editor Terrance Dicks wrote this one, and included the first (and to date ONLY) appearance of the Rutan...the race at war with the Sontarans (who do not appear).
