Chockie TV Programme

Hi,

Does anyone remeber a kids programme on TV, possible late 70's early 80's called 'Chockie' I think. The story line involved some kid with a friend called 'Chockie', this friend used to appear in the corner of rooms in the form of a patch of smoke, not sure if it was meant to be an alien or spirit.

Ive asked others do they remeber it and they dont, not sure if Im going made, did I imagen it or ?

On reading the rest of this thread I think you may be thinking of a John Wyndham novel an adaptation of which is currrently running on BBC4Extra. Like a lot of JW's stuff it is quite creepy!

Friday Street, isn't there a good pub there or quite near? I'm sure I remember drinking there at some point.

No pub at Friday Street, but you may be thinking of The Volunteer in Abinger Hammer. Quite a nice place.

I remember it being very strange. It was on about the same time as 'Starfleet' Did you manage to dig up an old clip? Of course the problem with nostalgia is, it won't be as good as you remember.

I remember seeing a film crew filming Chockie in a beauty spot called Friday Street in the Surrey Hills. They were next to a little row of picturesque cottages in the middle of nowhere.
