A Ghost Story for Christmas: The Treasure of Abbot Thomas (BBC, 1974)
"In what other parish church in the advowson of the good Abbot Thomas shall we find Bartholomew, Jude, Simon and Matthias all together in one window?"
"Not the 'good' Abbot Thomas, Peter. That was never suggested, not even by himself."

Mumsy, Nanny, Sonny & Girly https://bit.ly/3zbpW2S Having shot everything from 1960’s Saturday Night and Sunday Morning to David Lynch’s A Straight Story, it’s no surprise that Freddie Francis is best known as a cinematographer, one of the greats. But he also has more than 30 director credits to his name. Much of it was gun for hire work but in 1970, after eight years of doing others’ directorial bidding, he was finally given his head.
