A Cult film of the future - Only in England can you make a film like this!
Despite an excellent cast (including the amazing Maggy Smith)and top quality production values this film appears to inexplicably have gone un-noticed by the majority of people.
It is actually an adaptation of the second of Lucy M. Boston's Green Knowe books,"The Chimneys of Green Knowe" Although these books (there were six in all) were primarily intended for children or teenage readers they actually have a strong Supernatural content and rich characterisations that make them equally enjoyable for adult viewers and excellent films to sit and watch with the kids. The only previous adaptations of the books was the BBC serial "The Children of Green Knowe" in the 1980s. This was essentially produced as a Christmas Story and although it now appears quirky and perhaps dated, it still does that job very well. "From Time To Time" on the other hand has a slightly harder edge and tries to deal a little more with family estrangement and difficult relationships rather than just the lead characters ability to relate to his ancestors (with whom he is regularly able to interact).
This is a quintessentialy British film, atmospheric,creepy, well acted and with beautiful locations. If you ever enjoyed Sunday afternoon dramas on TV then purchase this, make a pot of tea, draw the curtains and lose yourself for a couple of hours in the kind of Drama that can only be made in England

Four short novels all linked through a similar theme
Four of the best short novels I have read in a long time and some of the best writing from this author, addictive reading.

An overlooked masterpiece
The Rivals of Sherlock Holmes! to anyone born after 1975 this may be an unknown series but for anyone who is a fan of detective fiction it is a 'must-have'. For me this was probably the most long awaited DVD release if only for the episode "The Horse of the Invisible" - as far as I know the only theatrical rendition of the character Thomas Carnacki - Edwardian Ghost Hunter (from the classic 1910 book by William Hope Hodgeson).
Each series is a collection of one-shot adaptations of investigations conducted by a range of literary detectives who, quite literally, were the rivals of Sherlock Holmes if only in as much as the authors were probably influenced or inspired by Conan Doyles character. There are some other long overlooked masterpieces and watching these episodes may even tease you into going out to track down the original books that were the source of these adaptations.
They don't make intelligent television like this anymore, well done Granada studios. Highly recommended!
