Join us as we take a trip into the Pacific North-West... To a town with a population way too high for how its depicted. And an eccentric population.

We are, of course, talking about Twin Peaks this time. Taking in the views of the feature length first episode (critically not the International Pilot version of this which we will get into later), we find that the series is a lot more subdued this early with few of the hallmarks that would be infamous as it went on...

Alas we have reached the end of Darkplace with so much of the series still left unglimpsed... What sights and truths could it reveal? Maybe that Dean Learner actually can act since once again he actually does for a brief moment.

Given the title and subject matter for The Creeping Moss from the Shores of Shoggoth, we end up talking about HP Lovecraft. But there's also some Clive Barker and Quatermass in here too...

Next time, we're off to Twin Peaks!

Looking past the less than subtle "borrowing" of John Carpenter's back-catalogue, we end up zeroing in on the actual theme of Scotch Mist! Doesn't have much to do with xenophobia, fog, mist but is very prevalent in the episode!

Inevitably we also talk a lot about Stephen King...
