So which was your favorite story..?.I have to say for me "Sweets to the Sweet" is a great contender. Seeing a big man like Christopher Lee out of character , we expect him to be the evil one actually scared of a little 9 year old girl is priceless.Great twist at the end of the story.
I like the tongue in cheek poke, at the whole low budget vampire movie genre in the Jon Pertwee "The Cloak" story. As the actor who has supposedly played Vampires for years, and thinks he is an expert suddenly out of his depth when he becomes one for real.
