Watching the wonderfully gothic #AdamAdamant S2 story 'Black Echo'.
One of my faves, despite the ropey sound + poor 16mm 'dupe' image quality of the surviving episode.
I still can't work out how the BBC made the cellar set look quite so large.
Dame Gladys Cooper is 👌

An #Otwituary for #AdamAdamant actor #GeraldHarper
The actor is plucked from real life,
lifted from one time and dropped
into another. Each performance
is a frozen hour, each character
a mere imitation of life in 625 lines.
#GeraldHarperRIP - After walking away from #AdamAdamant, Harper joined GAZETTE (1968) as James Hadleigh inheriting a local paper in fiercely independent #Yorkshire - #MichaelBlackham and #JonLaurimore were the bolshy journalists wymark.org.uk/gazette.html
