65 Crystal Tipps and Alistair



First  watched  : Uncertain

This  is  one  that  divided  me  from  my  sister. She  loved  it ;  I  loathed  it. It  was  just  the  look  of  the  thing, the  psychedelic  colours  and  Crystal's  appearance  with  the  long  chin  and  big  blue  hair  ( and,  I  note  now , an  alarmingly  short  dress  ). The  series  had  no  dialogue  just  music  and  with  the  often  surreal  plotlines  it  seemed  like  an  escaped  insert  from  Vision  On.  The  series  ran  from  1971  to  1974   and  probably  did  have  more  going  for  it  creatively  than  I  remember  but  I  can't  say  I'm  in  any  hurry  to  revisit  it.
