About this listen

 On a remote Scottish island, Doctors Curtis Lark and John Cornelius are convinced that the violent death of their friend Dr Hugh Dexter was no accident... Dexter's research notes reveal that he was investigating an island sickness affecting many of the inhabitants, turning them into zombies blindly obeying orders from an unknown source. The key to the mystery seems to be an apparently telepathic, but simple-minded, local girl, Flora. Lark and Cornelius want to take her to London to find out more - but is she the only telepath to have left the island? And who is controlling them? Film horror legends Peter Cushing and Vincent Price play Lark and Cornelius in this six-part series, which also features Richard Hurndall (Blake's 7 and Doctor Who) among the cast. Written by Rene Basilico, it is based on a story by 1970s Doctor Who script editor Robert Holmes.©2006 BBC Audiobooks Ltd; (P)2006 BBC Audiobooks Ltd Entertainment & Performing Arts Science Fiction

Critic reviews

Cushing is the perfect gentleman investigator, while Price could be reading a tax return and it would still be gripping. It might be old but this screams quality, just as loudly as that howling wind. (Jane Anderson)
All stars

Masters of horror Vincent Price and Peter Cushing lend their unmistakeable voices to a rather kitsch and typically BBC story about mind control. Our heroes risk their lives to save the world from the diabolical scottish accents of the supporting cast. It's Fun with a capital F, just don't take it too seriously.

Yes this is a fun series but spoiled by the unnecessary sound effects that grates on the ears so we had to keep turning down the sound which meant missing some of the dialogue. Price & Cushing do a great job.

It may be dated with very eclectic sound effects, but I just loved it. Two of my favourite actors to noot. Quirky SiFi
