Very rubbish. Not much has changed has it, in terms of public perceptions of the occult. Also a wierd mixed bag of stuff, a murder, a documentary which had been shown before about the poltergeist case, and a 'curse of the iceman' that turned out to be a fake. Should it be called 'anti-occult week'?  |

The Cornish 'Black Magick Murder' was a curates egg.
What was interesting was how even media wh0re and closet wiccan Ronald Hutton felt the need to 'blacken the name' of the bloke who was murdered and not question the fact that the 'pagan community' down there, or at least a part of it, is covering up and maybe protecting the second person involved in the killing. Very worrying.

The tone of the week was interesting I suppose. 10 or 15 years ago it might have been 'isn't the occult shocking and evil'! Whereas this week was 'isn't the occult a load of balls?'
I think the earlier tone of telly progs, preserved the mystery and excitement of the occult a bit.
