Remembering Nigel Kneale

Available for over a year

Toby Hadoke considers the legacy of Quatermass writer Nigel Kneale, whose trademark fusion of science fiction and folk horror famously transfixed the nation at the dawn of TV drama and continues to influence it to this day. His adaptation of Nineteen Eighty-Four shocked the establishment, and his seminal TV plays The Road, The Stone Tape and The Year of the Sex Olympics mark him out as a true pioneer of science fiction and horror.
