BBC Apparitions
posted in tv |
The new BBC exorcism drama Apparitions starts this week – Thursday 13th November at 9pm on BBC1. The series is in six parts, each lasting an hour.
Apparitions stars Martin Shaw as Catholic priest Father Jacob. In episode one Jacob “is approached by a young girl who believes her father is possessed by the devil”.
The show has already been criticised by Mediawatch, so it’s almost guaranteed to get high ratings. Personally I’m really looking forward to it.
If Apparitions comes even close to the success of Dead Set then, taken with the renaissance of British SF/fantasy shows, we could be on the verge of a new golden age for genre TV in the UK.
