Many a children’s tale of caution is one that is designed in actuality for the adult to take heed. The children of Hamelin were not the ones to openly suffer at the hands of the musician and his magic, but the parents who saw their children spirited away in act of vengeance of non-payment. It is to this effect that other tales show their true hand, the adult beware of those we cross, for the payment is often more than we can bear to lose.

It seems like a bad dream now but there was a time when the absence of Science Fiction from television, especially British Science Fiction tales, was in danger of being seen as antiquated as the thought of Medieval History. Thankfully neither genres and those that love and cherish where we have come from and where we are heading will ever lay down and let the banality of life ever let some television executives get their own way.
