ITC Entertained The World - episode 10 - Hammer House of Horror 

Hosted by Jaz Wiseman, Rodney Marshall and Al Samujh. Jaz, Rodney and Al discuss Hammer House of Horror - the 1980 ITC anthology series that took one of cinema's biggest brand names and turned them into small screen horrors. Travel back with them to the sleepy Metroland of the 1980s for some chilling conversation.

Note: A poltergeist was present during this recording and was playing around with Al's audio - please forgive him as he was trying to introduce some scares to the podcast!

Jaz, Rodney and Al discuss The Tamarind Seed - the 1974 ITC film starring Omar Sharif, Julie Andrews, Anthony Quayle, Sylvia Syms, Dan O'Herlihy, Oskar Homolka, Bryan Marshall, David Baron, Celia Bannerman and Kate O'Mara. Directed by Blake Edwards and filmed on location in London, Paris and the Caribbean, it was one of Lew Grade's first forays into feature films. With a lush John Barry score, Maurice Binder titles and cinematography by Freddie Young. 
Often overlooked as romance, Jaz, Rodney and Al argue that there is a lot more to this film than the critics suggested.
