Despite this, none of the episodes have ever been seen before now (although the show enjoyed a brief run in Peru). Darkplace was scripted and directed by the best-selling horror writer Garth Marenghi, known to thousands as the author of such classic chillers as "The Ooze" (can water die?), "Afterbirth" (a mutated placenta attacks Bristol) and "Black Fang" (where rats learn to drive). In addition, Marenghi starred as the show's lead character, Dr Rick Dagless--a maverick doctor battling against the evil forces lurking beneath a hospital in Romford. Even now, Garth warns that the show, in its effort to "radicalise men's minds", may prove "too subversive, too dangerous, too damn y."
