    Strange

    The old BBC demon hunting drama that last a disapointing seven episodes.

    Anyone remember this great show?

    It's Strange... that I've never seen or heard of this show. I had to go look on IMDb. It does ring a bell now. I vaguely remember seeing previews, but I never did watch it. I see it starred the brilliant Ian Richardson.

      Yeah, I remember watching a couple of episodes of this.

      And now I think about it, that bus-demon woman (Wizox) in the first ep was so creepily similar to a Wraith. Sucking the life out of people with her hands and causing them to age rapidly, arguing that it was natural, and she needed to feed to live ...

      It was a good series, too bad they cancelled it ...

        Right, I've been in communication with the creators. There's no actual plans for a DVD release yet.... but I said that... well...the show had become a mini legend...

        the guy was interested to know where...

        Any idea how I can prove this!?

          I thought it had alot of potential but I found the plots and stories very unoriginal and silly. I thought it should of had longer to evolve because 7 episodes is really not giving a show a decent chance IMO.

            It's not widely known, even among UK citizens, but most BBC tv series run for six episodes a season. Blackadder did, so does Spooks. Doctor Who is one of the exceptions. There were lots of interesting story arcs that I was waiting to see developed. Obviously the pseudo-demonic child was one, but then there was the engimatic Canon Black and the creature that was alluded to the last episode.

            It's a shame that there was such a well of material that went untapped.

              I'm curious, was Ian Richardson's character Scottish?

              Have you seen Sea of Souls? That is a six-part series. I didn't start watching until the latest series.

                I caught the first series of Sea of Souls, and enjoyed it, but not the second unfortunatly.
