6 Memories of working at Part 2, by Noel Cronin Having worked for a while during the early 1960s in the film lets department at Rank, I gained my trade union card to ACTT, (Association of Cinematograph, Television and Allied Technicians). I was promoted to trainee film editor in the illustrious Hill Street, off Berkeley Square – a huge con- trast from industrial Park Royal. My editor, Gerry Norman was a very old fashioned man – part of the famous Norman family, I believe. I say old fashioned in the sense that he believed that a trainee should stand all day at his shoulder and watch all that the editor did. The result for me was abject boredom and very aching legs! The highlight of my day was to sit down to sharpen the chinagraph pencils! The sheer boredom of the job and my latest discovery – girls – meant that my Rank career was coming to an end. I was called to the manager’s office and offered another job somewhere in the Rank organisation. Having declined this, the wide world of freelance working beckoned. I recall being ”between positions” for two weeks, which meant “signing on” on a Wednesday and returning on Friday for £1 odd and form a line. I am pleased to say that in my nearly sixty years of working those two weeks are my only experience of unemployment. Next month, the freelance! Producer Noel Cronin founded Talking Pictures TV and Renown Pictures. He will be contributing a series of memories to the newsletter over the coming months. Ever since his entrance into the world of film as a young man, Noel has been interested in preserving the heritage of lost and forgotten films, shorts and programmes, and for many years has been gathering, restoring and preserving this wonderful heritage which would otherwise be lost. Noel worked for The Rank Organisation and the Central Office of Information, and bought the rights to several libraries that owned films which now air on TPTV. His career as a producer and editor of films, documentaries and TV series spans several decades, and his work includes Home For Christmas (1990), Romantic Undertaking (1996), and The Ghost of Greville Lodge (2000).

Werewolves, vampires and ghosts haunt the living in this long-awaited double-disc presentation of the much sought-after BBC horror series Supernatural. Originally broadcast on BBC1 in 1977 and rarely seen since, this classic series ran for eight terrifying episodes. In each, a different prospective member of the Club of the Damned is required to tell a story that will chill the blood of the club’s members, and their application for membership would be judged on how frightening the story was. Failure to induce terror in all who attend would lead to the death of the storyteller...

A timeless example of British Gothic horror at its best, Supernatural boasts a superb cast of acting talent, including: , Jeremy Brent, Robert Hardy, Gordon Jackson, Sinead Cusack, Denholm Elliott and Ian Hendry.

12 From the British Film Institute Supernatural (2-DVD set) RRP £30 OUR PRICE £19.99

The 2-disc set contains four episodes on each disc, presented in the original transmission order. Disc One 1. Ghosts of Venice with Robert Hardy and Sinead Cusack 2. Countess Ilona with Billie Whitelaw, Ian Hendry and Edward Hardwicke 3. The Werewolf Reunion with Billie Whitelaw, Ian Hendry and Edward Hardwicke 4. Mr Nightingale with Jeremy Brett and Lesley-Anne Down Disc Two 5. Lady Sybil with Denholm Elliott 6. Viktoria with Catherine Schell and Judy Cornwell 7. Night of the Marionettes with Gordon Jackson, Kathleen Byron and Vladek Sheybal 8. Dorabella with Jeremy Clyde Series creator Robert Muller also wrote seven of the eight screenplays. He wanted to tell a Gothic tale that was akin to the old horror films of the 1920s and 1930s. Tales of ghosts, vampires and werewolves; highly romantic and charged with fear and menace. Each episode was a stand-alone story, however, episodes 2 and 3 shared a cast and linked plot. These two episodes starred English actress Billie Whitelaw, who was married to Muller. The two never discussed the play at home, and in the rehearsal room Whitelaw always referred to the director for advice. Vladek Sheybal won the prestigious Hamilton Deane Award from the Dracula Society for the best dramatic performance or presentation in the Gothic horror/supernatural genres for his performance in “Night of the Marionettes”. He played “Herr Hubert”, an Austrian innkeeper with life-size puppets in a story based around Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein.

SPECIAL FEATURES: Commentaries with Freddie Jones and Richard Carpenter on selected episodes and a Stills Gallery. 14 Spotlight on Sheila Steafel Born: 26 May 1935 Died: 23 August 2019 Born in Johannesburg, South Africa on 26 May 1935, Sheila Frances Steafel always wanted to perform. Her childhood was traumatic, growing up in a dysfunctional family in the apartheid-torn South African town during the 30s and 40s undoubtedly had an impact on her later life. She trained at the Webber Douglas Academy School of Dramatic Art, before deciding to bring her talents to Britain to try for fame and fortune. Sheila got her real big break appearing as part of The Frost Report team along with , John Cleese, Ronnie Barker and Ronnie Corbett, but this came after ten years of hard work with many of the television stars of the Sixties, from Frankie Howerd to Danny La Rue. She appeared in many of the most popular series of the decade including Danger Man, No Hiding Place and numerous episodes. Her most memorable TV credits include The Good Old Days (notably as ‘Popsie Wopsie’), The Ghosts of Motley Hall as The White Lady, Ivy Watkins, (catchphrase: “Yes Mr Cropper”), in How’s Your Father and Not Only But Also, with Peter Cook and Dudley Moore. Her television debut was in Jack Hylton’s Monday Show in 1957. She married the actor Harry H Corbett in 1958, but sadly the marriage was not to last and they were divorced in 1964. Her account of her marriage and her fighting of childhood demons in her adult life were frankly and honestly revealed in her 2010 autobiography, When Harry Met Sheila. The marriage was also dramatised on television in The Curse of Steptoe (2008) with Zoe Tapper playing Sheila to Jason Issacs’ Harry. Her film credits were as notable as her TV roles, particularly in a range of both drama and comedy roles including, Daleks Invasion Earth 2150AD (1966); her film debut, Quatermass and the Pit (1967) for Hammer; the musical Goodbye Mr Chips (1969); Tropic of Cancer (1970), Melody (1971), Digby, the Biggest Dog in the World (1973), Are You Being Served (1977), Bloodbath at the House of Death (1984) and Back to the Secret Garden (2001). Sheila’s stage credits were highly impressive, including working opposite Sir Tom Courtenay in Billy Liar, with in Jump and Robert Morley in How the Other Half Loves. She was acclaimed for her performances as Harpo Marx in A Day in Hollywood, A Night in the Ukraine and as Mistress Quickly in the 1985 RSC production of The Merry Wives of Windsor. Ten years later, she was invited back for another season, playing in Vanbrugh’s The Relapse and Ben Johnson’s The Devil’s An Ass. Sheila even ventured into opera singing as the witch in Humperdinck’s Hansel and Gretel. In 1981 she put together her first one woman show, Steafel Solo for the 1981 Edinburgh festival. It transferred to the Kings Head, London for an extended run and then toured the UK and abroad. Her unique voice has also been used for animated characters in series such as The Perishers, Super Ted and Tales of Beatrix Potter. She also used her talent for mimicry in the Radio 4 satirical show Week Ending in the 70s & 80s, notably portraying Margaret Thatcher. Recently, Sheila was seen in Doctors (2016) and as Dora Bentley in Shakespeare and Hathaway: Private Investigators (2018). Sheila Steafel fought her private demons and excelled in a competitive industry, leaving behind a wealth of laughter and tears to enjoy on film and DVD; she will never be forgotten. 15 From the British Film Institute Legend of the Witches & Secret Rites DVD + Blu-ray Edition RRP £25 OUR PRICE £15 WITH FREE UK POSTAGE Call Us Now On Freephone 0808 178 8212 Or 01923 290555 Two far out British films: Malcolm Leigh’s Legend of the Witches and Derek Ford’s Secret Rites WITH SUBTITLES Run time: Legend of the Witches 85 min, Secret Rites 47 min (152 min total) | Black & White | Year: 1970 & 1971 Legend of the Witches (1970, 85 mins): An originally X-rated film documentary which looks in detail at previously hidden magic rites and rituals.
