i'd love to know what other gems are gathering dust in the bbc crypt? i reckon they've got the entire 'dead of night' series after watching the crystal clear quality showing of 'the exocism' on bbc4 eighteen months ago!

Can anyone remember if one of the tales stared the main guy from the comedy 'Duty Free' as a faith healer?
