Definitely the jab… you can have flu type symptoms for a week or so after….

Shame it’s another “something lurking in a flat in the Powell Estate” after the first release trod similar ground.. maybe they should have been spread them out a bit?

Listening to @whorod.bsky.social , Eliza and @frakturedboy.bsky.social talking about Sapphire & Steel brings it back. Loved it as a child, sat with mum watching it. The music put the fear of god up me! I remember the railway station gave me the willies.a fabulous piece of TV! Perfect.

When Rod asked about recording an episode about Sapphire and Steel I jumped at the chance! It’s a show I knew a little bit about but enjoyed delving into immensely! Enjoy! ☺️
