Dead Of Night - The Exorism / Return Flight / A Woman Sobbing Dead of Night

Three episodes from the BBC's horror anthology series from the 1970s. In 'The Exorcism' the past comes back to haunt four well-off friends - Dan (Clive Swift), Edmund (Edward Petherbridge), Rachel (Anna Cropper) and Margaret (Sylvia Kay) - during a Christmas get together. In 'Return Flight' pilot Captain Rolph (Peter Barkworth) struggles to maintain his reputation when he is confronted by the ghostly image of a Lancaster bomber from the Second World War.

In 'A Woman Sobbing' strange goings-on cause Jane (Anna Massey)'s mental state to become more and more fragile.
