Bloody hell, I can remember all of those PSA ads from when I was growing up! They tie in with the creepiness of a few children’s TV series, like early Dr Who and Children Of The Stones, which, set in Avebury, is nowhere near as weird on a bright, hot July afternoon sat outside the pub with a pint and a packet of crisps like I was yesterday.
It was also pleasantly free of hoards of ersatz hippies, neo-pagans and pseudo-Druids banging bloody drums.
