Starting in this issue is the spooky/doppelganger story “House of the Past” – rather like the Scooby-Doo stories, the set-up and atmosphere is one of a ghost or magic-based type of story but the denoument discloses that some very human emotions are behind it all. More memorably, the long-running serial “Fran of the Floods” is in full flight at this point – with strong echoes of John Wyndham’s apocalyptic stories, this episode includes a dramatic escape from an organisation who want to bring the shattered remains of England under their feudal control! The obsessional and rather disturbing story “The Slave of Form 3B” is also in progress, and meek Tania is coming increasingly under the hypnotic control of amoral brunette Stacey.
