    I can't say I liked it, in fact I found those glassy eyed puppets kind of unsettling, but no one else of my own age seems to remember Bailebeag. There's no footage online just some stills.

    Perhaps everyone is so traumatised by the gruesome episode with the decapitation scene featured above that they've blocked it out!

    No Harry's Game was the theme to a mini series of the same name about the Troubles.
    For Robin it was "The Hooded Man".

    Ha this reminded me of standing up in my Irish class and asking the teacher what it meant. She said "let out your bubble " to which I replied, Can ya wait till after class miss? In fairness the whole class had a right laugh, as did she.

    That's a fair point. The thread is old shows nobody else may remember, not every single show that pops into your head folks.

    One comedy and two vampire related series from the 90s.

    Forever Night, a Canadian show that would pop up late nights on Sky. Nick Knight was a cop working the night shift but each episode would include a flash back to a previous era.

    Ultraviolet, Channel 4 mini-series with an X-Files \ pseudoscientific angle, cast included Jack Davenport, Idris Elba, Stephen Moyer and Susannah Harker.

    And Jack Davenport also starred in BBC comedy Coupling, written by Steven Moffat (Dr Who).
    The episode where you see Jeff's attempts to chat up a foreign woman in a bar from both perspectives was class.

    Apparently Bruce wills had to film most, if not all, of die hard at night in order to accommodate moonlighting

    I get that but just keep in mind on this thread it's "Pointless" rules rather than "Family Fortune"!
