The Mcguffin - Screen Two - Thriller - Charles Dance

At the End I Feel a bit Blue ;-) Thank for sharing!

I love Charles Dance.

Oh, Brother . . . talk about stealing Hitchcock.

Very well done. The atmospheric music is excellent and creates the perfect Film Noir mood.

An early appearance by Mark Rylance!

Try "Skeleton in the cupboard", Tales of the Unexpected

Well, I wasnt happy with that ending at all - the sickos literally getting away with it all...

theme music is very reminiscent of Chinatown.

Loving the film! Not cheerio very far in, adore Archie- thanks for uploading- Brits all the way and a weird take on Hitch, can't go wrong! gashlytiny cheerio

That was superb.

Great actor , charming man , I love him so much !!!

Screen 2, Season 2 Episode 1. Aired 12th Jan '86

BBC needs to do an iPlayer boxset of Screen Two and Screen One.  
So many great things they refuse to bring out of their archive.  
They produced, so they must own them, so what's the problem?

Looks better as an older man

Seems interesting and Dance is always great. However, about 15 to 30 minutes in, I got the sense that the monsters who control our governments were up to something evil. It started hitting too close to home and giving me a sick feeling in the pit of my stomach, so I haven't continued watching. I know from first-hand experience that there can be no happy endings when you're in the crosshairs of those truly sick, all-powerful bastards.

Charles Dance is as good as Alan Rickman and Ian Gelder.

I Love Charles Dance Great actor 💙

Thanks for posting these up. The BBC needs to put the Screen One and Screen Two dramas out on digital media(I know a few have been released on old media like "After Pilkington" and "Hotel du Lac").

This was quite a well done thriller. Great cast as well : Charles Dance, Phyllis Logan, Brian Glover, Anna Massey(nice nod to Hitchcock's "Frenzy" there). I liked the reference to "Rear Window" as well. The music score reminded me a lot of Jerry Goldsmith's one for "Chinatown".
