For a generation of British kids, the scariest monsters weren't in movies—they were wedged between the cartoons. Welcome to the strange, terrifying, and unforgettable world of Public Information Films (PIFs).
In this documentary, we journey back to 1970s and 80s Britain to explore the government-sponsored films that were designed to save our lives, but ended up haunting our dreams. We'll uncover the story behind the hooded terror of 'The Spirit of Dark and Lonely Water', the uncanny warnings of 'Charley the Cat', the brutal realism of the 'Apaches' farm safety film, and the reassuring heroism of the Green Cross Code Man.
Join us as we explore why these mini-nightmares were created, how they used fear as a psychological tool, and how they escaped the television screen to become the stuff of playground legend.
This is a story of nostalgia, shared memory, and the uniquely British campaign that shaped the childhood of millions.
