Synopsis:

A breeding ground for some of Britain's most accomplished screenwriters, Dramarama is one of the flagstones of children's television from the 1980's with a legacy that still lives on today.
Supported by offshoot Spooky, a screenplay that set the supernatural backdrop for the Dramarama series, these classic screenplays are guaranteed to send shivers up the spine and leave you on the edge of your seat.
