I think the problem with this title not finding its way onto the trading network is because there appears to be no viewing copy in the BBC archives for some kind soul to liberate. Only the film negative exists at Windmill Road - there doesn't even appear to be a positive print held. I think it was only screened once, so if nobody taped it on tx and kept it, then the only copy is that master negative, and its highly unlikely that anything will ever be done with that unless it was called up for a repeat or dvd release. And we all know how unlikely thats gonna be! A great pity, as I saw this on transmission and thoroughly enjoyed it. A very spooky drama for kids that deserves another outing.
