I remember ...The alien in this one is Robert Culp. I remember the one Jerry is thinking about, though. "The Sixth Finger" I believe. One of the few pieces of American media, along with How Green Was My Valley, to attempt to represent Welsh accents.<br /><br />The lighting in this episode is pretty high-key, several scenes lighting everybody really sharp on black backgrounds. So yeah, I bet it is real sweat. And I remember that Twilight Zone too. There's a scary intruder played by Velie from Ellery Queen.<br /><br />The song does have an interesting history behind it. Lawsy there was a lot of churn in Henry's time.Benhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06590397694589547524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6499771778569209667.post-32097576844070392202012-08-26T17:50:40.609-07:002012-08-26T17:50:40.609-07:00We saw that story from the Outer Limits a few year...We saw that story from the Outer Limits a few years ago - Jer remembered it was David McCallum who played the alien. True?<br /><br />Do you mean real sweat? Lately we've been re-watching the Twilight Zone and couldn't help but notice how drenched in perspiration the actors were in some episodes. When you consider just how hot those old studio lights were it's no wonder. It worked really well in one show where the plot involved a couple of characters reaction to the fact the earth was falling into the sun. Hilariously, some folks were running off to Toronto to avoid the heat.<br /><br />Great FR10 with a couple of well remembered and still favorite songs. I just looked up St James Infirmary and learned it was originally a hospital for lepers in London until Henry VIII used the land to build St. Jame's Palace. I was reminded of the very entertaining 'Baroque Cycle'.susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16747450215034568033noreply@blogger.com
