Garth Marenghi's Darkplace: Series 1, Episode 3 - Skipper The Eye Child - British Comedy Guide (original) (raw)

The past is stirring in the halls of Darkplace, and for Dr. Rick Dagless M.D., that means Trouble. With a capital T (the rest of the letters lowercase). Something long dead has been reborn on 'B' Wing. Is it a macabre sign, a terrible warning, or a sacred gift from the gods? What's certain is that it is a giant eye. A journey of discovery lies ahead for both of them... Garth Marenghi, the Titan of Terror, introduces this lyrical episode of his hospital horror drama.
