Thanks in advance:

1st one is a film about the Bermuda triangle, I can remember a boad with loads of bodies on it and one was suspended in mid air as it turns out by some kind of swordfish.

and the second is still one I have mentioned before its a childrens program from back around 1980`s it had a christmass theme to it. It was about several ghosts, one of which was a choir singer or something, and this child who sees them. Set around the turn of the century kinda naria esque/Toms midnight garden. The boy moves to an old house where he finds an old key in the floorboards, there was one episode near the end where he is out in a forest with trees whistling and making loud noises, I remember it being quite earie.

Bit vague I know


Cheers

Bollocks I remember this one. A few years back I was trying to remember what it was called, but never remembered. Not much help to you, but you`ve got me thinking again now.

Edit- I`ll add that I`m pretty sure that it was on ITV and probably was on in early 90`s as I only turned 7 in 89 (but this could have been a repeat rather than the original run).

I think you will find it was The Children of Green Knowe & it was a BBC production.




I consider myself an optimist, albeit an optimist with cynical tendencies and a dark side that Lucifer himself would find a little creepy. (Perhaps you've noticed.) You don't normally associate cynicism with an upbeat pov. But I have exactly that combination and will defend it.

Heartily glad that I don`t have to learn how to spell Chiwetel Ejiofor.
