“Well, it’s only fair, Mrs Jarman, I mean, now I’m not the only boy who hasn’t got a father” – Simon Potter in The Corpse Can’t Play, 1968     Back when the BBC wasn’t an extension of George Orwell’s Ministry of Truth, the UK’s state broadcaster produced daring telly, like Late Night Horror. Shown in 1968 over six 25-minute episodes, the only known surviving full show is The Corpse Can’t Play, episode three. Before erasing the tapes after a second and final broadcast on Friday 13 March 1970, the BBC had cancelled the series after many viewers called in to complain that it was too horrific. And that is especially odd, given that the country had been reared on war and British public information films that were so much more solidly terrifying than the US counterparts. Images of a flaming airborne teenagers and nuclear annihilation will forever haunt the dreams of young children unfortunate enough to witness such hardcore safety lessons. All the Late Night Horror shows were originally filmed in colour, but only a single 16mm black-and-white film print exists. Before we see that, it is worth looking at the intro to help modern viewers understand the level of psychological horror in store. And, as recalled in Late Night Horror: A Complete Guide to the BBC Series, show producer Harry Moore sent this memo to staff shortly before production began in 1967: “We must do everything we can from the very beginning to stimulate suspense, tension, atmosphere, potential horror and HORROR!” If there is blood, let’s see the blood.”     The full series of Late Night Horror No Such Thing as a Vampire, written by American scriptwriter Richard Burton Matheson (February 20, 1926 – June 23, 2013), chiefly known as the author of I Am Legend and a dozen episodes of The Twilight Zone. William and Mary, based on a short story by Roald Dahl, originally published in 1959 and included in his 1960 collection Kiss Kiss. It was also adapted into an episode of Tales of the Unexpected. The Triumph of Death was written by Herbert Russell Wakefield (1888 – 2 August 1964), known best for his supernatural fiction The Bells of Hell, written bv Robert Aickman (27 June 1914 – 26 February 1981), who had an immense knowledge of the occult. In the essay that Aickman wrote in response to receiving a World Fantasy Award, he wrote: I believe in what the Germans term Ehrfurcht: reverence for things one cannot understand. Faust’s error was an aspiration to understand, and therefore master, things which, by God or by nature, are set beyond the human compass. He could only achieve this at the cost of making the achievement pointless. Once again, it is exactly what modern man has done. The Kiss of Blood by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (22 May 1859 – 7 July 1930), the hymned British writer and physician who created the character Sherlock Holmes and for a time took an avid interest in paranormal phenomena.     The Corpse Can’t Play The Corpse Can’t Play was dramatised by the playwriter Hugh Leonard (9 November 1926 – 12 February 2009) from the book Party Games by John Burke (8 March 1922 – 20 September 2011). Burke also wrote for British TV fright-night series Tales of Unease (LWT, 1970) and The Frighteners (LWT, 1972). His main work was to turn stage plays, film and TV scripts into pulp fiction for Pan books, notably John Osborne’s Look Back in Anger, The Beatles movie A Hard Day’s Night (1964), The Hammer Horror Omnibus (1966/7; two volumes),  Ian Fleming’s childhood nightmare-maker Chitty Chitty Bang Bang (1968) and a series of novels based on TV police drama The Bill, beginning in 1985. The plot: Young Ronnie Jarman’s party is in full swing. His mother Alice is waiting for her husband, Tom, to return from work to help out. The doorbell rings, but instead of Tom it’s a boy called Simon Potter, who Ronnie dislikes. Simon brings an expensive gift of an electric toy car. But Ronnie dumps it on the ground and ignoring Simon dashes off with his mates. Simon – dressed in smart suit and tie (as are many of the lads) – is then invited to take part in a game Ronnie has devised in which the children get to act out what their father does for a living. Ronnie does this knowing full well that Simon’s dad is dead. And then Tom arrives home carrying his new gardening equipment, which includes a new hoe and an axe…     Incidentally,  16-year-old Michael Newport, who played Simon, starred at Jim Hawkins in the BBC’s serialised adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson’s Treasure Island. Around a year later, he quit acting, and as report suggests, and “much of his work was connected with photography. Around 1980 he invented a form of illuminated chess, called Spectrum Satellite.” The post The Corpse Can’t Play: The Late Night Horror They Banned (1968) appeared first on Flashbak.
