Broadcaster and actor Peter Purves got in touch to say how much he’d enjoyed our book The Quatermass Experiment, @tobyhadoke.bsky.social’s definitive guide to TV’s first sci-fi classic, available now from tenacrebooks.co.uk 🚀

‘A remarkable achievement. Your research cannot be faulted, and you have knitted it into the definitive book on early TV production skills and techniques, without ever being boring. Having watched the original Quatermass, I was reminded of so much that I had forgotten. Your choices of photographs are incredibly valuable to the story, and show the limitations of the setting, which you describe quite brilliantly. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it, and cannot praise you highly enough.’ Peter Purves

One of my favourite paintings, 'A Seated Woman Looking at a Child Through a Window', a ghostly 17th century work by the enigmatic Jacobus Vrel. Next to nothing is known about the artist, did he even exist? More than enough room for a Schalcken the Painter style BBC Ghost Story, I would've thought..!

A woman of indefinable age, seen from behind, leans against a window where a child’s face stealthily appears in the half-darkness. She seems to be trying to communicate with the little girl by placing her hand on the windowpane.
