Just tried another 'delete' of an old sent message and got the same error message.

Just a follow on from an issue mentioned in the 'A Killer in Every Corner' book thread. When I've sent PMs myself recently, they've sat (sometimes for a number of days or even longer) in the 'Outbox' without moving to 'Sent' (and presumably therefore not received until they've finally flowed through...

Have sent you a PM. Just letting you know as sometimes I know they are easy to miss on here! Hi Simon. Just checked, it's not come through (possibly sitting in your 'outbox' rather than 'sent'). I know from experience they can sit there for some time before arriving at their destination. If it's ur...

I'd like to highlight the following review of 'A THRILLER in Every Corner' which highlights some additional areas not yet mentioned.

As always, happy to answer any questions.

As a single video review can tell a story that (arguably) needs a thousand words, here is one for 'A THRILLER in Every Corner'! Enjoy!

... an interview re 'A THRILLER in Every Corner' with yours truly.

A wonderfully extensive review has now been posted on the book's page at lulu. https://www.lulu.com/en/gb/shop/martin-marshall/a-thriller-in-every-corner/paperback/product-vqd6n5.html And, from a satisfied customer (name withheld for privacy), here's a lovely email that I received today ... Hi Marti...

“Marvellous!” Just received my copy. That will see me through lockdown! Marvellous indeed, or as Ian Hendry might have said "Perfect". Hope you enjoy the read Simon, must thank you again for pointing me towards that analysis of Laurie Johnson's theme music to the series. For that and highlighting t...

My copy arrived yesterday, wooo! Had my customary flick through to start with, and it really look very good, obviously a labour of love and seems to be meticulously researched with VT numbers UK and US TX dates and recording dates, also lovely trivia sections and 'Also In Studio' sections telling y...

Lovely to see Mark enjoying the read so far and pointing out some of areas that should prove interesting to those interested in television of those times (and the way it was made) as well as the hardcore aficionados of the series. Many thanks. Those multicamera studio productions of the day (more so...

Edited to remove expired discount codes

Happy reading!

Looks like a great book. Did you find Norman Eshley in good health? I’ve always liked him as an actor and I’d heard he’d suffered head injuries in a car crash that kept him off the telly for a while. Hi Ross Thanks for your kind comments. I really tried to cover all the bases! There's a lot of back...

Discount code available this week until Christmas Day. (EXPIRED)

As I've received a few email enquiries about the book, I thought I might share some of the answers here in case others had similar questions. Re: the structure, I've briefly referenced this in the introduction but basically the text can be read from 'cover to cover' as a chronology of the series but...

Although it's not showing up as a banner on the site at the moment, to me at least ... I've just been kindly informed that the code TREAT15 is currently valid for a 15% discount.

This should cover any postage costs and maybe a touch more if anyone is pondering a purchase.

Feel free to either screengrab the contents page or post the text here. Thriller isn't a series that I got into, but I'm sure there will be interest from others. Thanks. The contents page merely lists the chapter headings ... so below I've copied the more detailed 'topics' file I worked to. This sh...

Ooooh...crumbs! Okay...irresistible.! Cheers Mark, hope you enjoy the read. I've tried not to leave any stone unturned and to do (a) the series, (b) Brian and (c) the fans proud. If I say so myself, there's a lot in there that would also likely appeal beyond THRILLER itself to anyone interested in ...

Can anyone shed any light on that mysterious box in the top right hand corner of the screen with the scrolling lines, the one that used to forewarn us that the commercials were approaching?. I’d always assumed that they were added to the programme By the presentation department live, but I notice t...

A mainstay of so many roles over the decades, always a pleasure to watch.

He played the main cop role in my favourite Canadian suspense thriller/horror movie 'Black Christmas' (1974) alongside Olivia Hussey, Keir Dullea and Margot Kidder.

I have always been under the impression that it was a crude, almost guesswork, scissors and sellotape, procedure. Until 1963, all videotape editing was done by physically cutting and splicing together the tape. For obvious reasons - the physical weakness introduced into the tape (at significant ris...
