Sammy Coin (segment 3 "Voodoo")
В купе поезда, в котором уже едут пятеро мужчин, подсаживается таинственный доктор Шрек, профессор парапсихологии и оккультных наук. Задремав, господин Шрек роняет на пол свой портфель из которого вываливается колода карт таро, а попутчики, заинтересовавшись, просят его предсказать их будущее. Доктор Шрек любезно соглашается и предсказывает одному из них погибнуть от руки оборотня, другому принять смерть от умного растения, третьему — поплатиться за воровство музыки Вуду, четвертому — умереть от собственного эго, а пятому — пасть жертвой вампира. Разумеется, никто из пассажиров в удивительные предсказания доктора не поверил, но на конечной станции их всех ждал большой сюрприз…
A delightful Christmas musical about a young Jamaican woman who flees her humdrum Liverpool lodgings in search of her glamorous London cousin. Broadcast live on 28 December 1964, this rare TV musical is one of few to have survived from the 1960s. A tale of Afro-Caribbean immigration, the show is unusual for its time in that it doesn't labour the issues around racial tensions in Britain, but simply celebrates Christmas and family.
