VISION ON SOUND EPISODE 97 - TX AUGUST 14 2022 - UNDERMIND & OTHER 1960s TV

First broadcast on FAB RADIO INTERNATIONAL at 19:00 on August 14th 2022

WARREN CUMMINGS is back again this week, as we are both transported back to the mid-1960s to have a chat about the obscure Science-Fiction adventure series UNDERMIND, an eleven part ABC television series starring Jeremy Wilkin and Rosemary Nichols.

As ever with us, this sets us both off on a unexpectedly roundabout stroll through the television universe, and so, in the next hour we’ll also touch upon the work of Robert Holmes, the apocalyptic nature of special effects technicians, another obscure series called THE CORRIDOR PEOPLE which was made by Granada TV, featured JOHN SHARP, and lasted for an astonishing four episodes in the mid 1960s.

We also touch briefly upon its contemporary spy series, THE AVENGERS and THE PRISONER before turning our attention to modern day children’s television as more channels are announced as being on the brink of extinction.
