Proudly presented by BBC3. Tonight's theme - Horror! This big-budget episode begins with a spine-chilling and blood-curdling sight.... and after Maureen, it continues to horrify until the final, climactic scenes. Little Reggie gets so scared. Iris can't change his nappies fast enough, but Roland insists that he's a supernatural superstar and not frightened of anything.
Music in the ratcave tonight performed by the Stranglers. Plus special guests Richard O'Brien and Gary Wilmot.
Not forgetting the ubiquitous Darcey de Farcey (JAMES
SAXON) and the tantalising nymphette
