Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

Roman Sampson One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

Maddyclassicfilms Tales of the Unexpected is a British anthology series which aired between 1979 and 1988. Introduced by author Roald Dahl many of the episodes were based on his own stories. Most of the episodes are very macabre and have a twist ending.The earlier seasons are the best but there are excellent episodes to be found across all nine years. The Landlady (season 1)would have made a terrific Twilight Zone episode. The Flypaper (season 3)is one of the best episodes and I'd say it may well be the darkest. I'd say this episode has even more relevance today and should be shown to children to warn them not to trust strangers, no matter how harmless the person seems.

Keep_Searching This old-fashioned British TV serial has a terrific atmosphere . The opening scene with the mysterious dancing woman,the skulls,gun and cards is quite impressive.The plot is strange:different actors play in every single episode which is based on a short story.Many of them are written by the well-known Roahld Dall.The episodes are called horror and triller but in fact there is nothing which can scare you.Yes , there are murders , secrets and twists in the tale,and sometimes a dreadful atmosphere but the violence and assassination are shown very stylish.There are episodes that are really interesting and the end is surprising : The Olderely World of Mr Appleby,Man From South,Edward the Conqueror and many others.Unfortunately there are also episodes which look naive and boring.The actors are excellent:many famous British stars act in this TV series.I must mention the music which is very good.

louisemcmahon one evening my dad made me sit down and watch this show with the family and i thought what rubbish it seemed! however once i watched one episode i was hooked! ok so the storylines are silly but they are surprsingly entertaining. unfortunately granarda plus have stopped showing them!

Desmond Pereira Regardless of what some viewers may think, I had a great time watching this series as a young adult late in the evenings and before the station screening it closed for the night.It was brilliantly written by the fabulous Mr Roald Dahl and the theme soundtrack was worth the wait for 'the Unexpected Tale' with a usually camp and fascinating end to unfold.The series starred many budding and now household names from the British Theatre world and yes, the costumes, sets and furnishings were glam and stylish for the period when the world was a more innocent and romantic place to be.I wish it could be screened again in Australia for older and even newer audiences to enjoy again; especially now that the 70's are hip and back!
