    9/10

    Another triumph for Nigel Kneale.

    The only reason I don't give "Beasts" a top 10 is that there aren't many episodes. There should have been a second series - I reckon they would have been just as good.

    Each episode from this series has a self- contained plot and they range from witchcraft to possession.

    The production values are a bit modest but the beauty lays in the acting and the writing. For sheer storytelling, this kind of television is sorely missed.
