Mylandro Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 From BBC: Written by Russell T Davies, Dark Season centres around a normal English school, but all is not what it seems... For the machinations of the mysterious Mr Eldritch are at work. A shades-wearing, bleached-blonde millionaire, he arrives at the school claiming to be its benefactor; donating computers to every student. Investigating Eldritch is the ever-inquisitive, wise beyond her years third former Marcie, who with her fifth form friends, Reet and Thom, uncovers a plot to that doesn't just threaten the pupils of the school, but the whole human race! With Eldritch exposed, it is hoped that things will return to normal, but Marcie, Tom and Reet arrive back at the school to find a team of blonde archaeologists digging up the playing field. But since when, as Marcie points out, have archaeologists used mechanical diggers? It soon becomes apparent that Miss Pendragon doesn't want to uncover the past, she wants to reawaken it by summoning up the fearsome Behemoth... Aired in November 1991 on Childrens BBC and achieving raitings peaking 4 million at one point, it was only 6 episodes long. Anyone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missy Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 Investigating Eldritch is the ever-inquisitive, wise beyond her years third former Marcie, who with her fifth form friends, Reet and Thom, uncovers a plot to that doesn't just threaten the pupils of the school, but the whole human race! What's a "third former" and a "fifth form"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuaveStar Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 It's school years used in England. Third former means they are in the third year at secondary school. Think of it like high school years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
