Another ‘impossible it would be made today’ UK 70s fantasy kids series. As the BFI website states:
“Kafka for kids” is how co-writer Bob Baker concisely summed up this, another in a long line of unsettling mid-70s fantasy-based serials from West Country ITV franchise HTV. As Baker hinted, the title almost certainly came from Franz Kafka’s allegorical novel The Castle, a study of the dehumanising alienation wrought upon us all by modern society. And this was for children?
HTV executive Patrick Dromgoole modestly recalled it as “quite a serious piece of work” and the serial was nominated for a BAFTA. It stands as a benchmark of just how far ITV could sometimes push the envelope in the mid-70s.
