Welcome to the Classic Cult TV Club, (CCtvC), with Justin, Janette, Alex, Lisa, Gypsy and Angus.

The “culters” turn back the clock again this month to watch a “cult classic” from 1979 made by BBC Scotland which evokes fond memories for some, but many questions from others.

So how well has the series aged? Would young audiences today find it worth watching? How have the ideas which inform the narrative dated and what influence has The Omega Factor had on other TV shows if any. And why did Mary Whitehouse object to this series? To find out listen to the podcast.
