Re:Fascinating biography of Roald Dahl on ITV3 tonight 17 Years, 7 Months ago
The best of "Tales Of the Unexpected", I had in a book called "Someone Like You", by Dahl and it was excellent and terrifying even before TV got hold of it.

They were showing them fairly recently on one of the satellite channels - I'm sure they will be repeating them again soon. I seem to remember the Royal Jelly story was a bit ridiculous.
Re:Fascinating biography of Roald Dahl on ITV3 tonight 17 Years, 7 Months ago
Tales of the Unexpected was an odd show. The odd gem amongst a series of rather bland stories. Although I love Roald Dahl. Again I don't believe any of his books have come off well on the big screen...re: Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, although The Witches was a terrific adaptation. That said it is a pet hate of mine...classic books done into films...I prefer them left in my mind...where they belong!
