The Stone Tape by Nigel Kneale. An ancient evil is unleashed by an electronics research team working in a renovated Victorian mansion with much older origins, apparently haunted by a maid falling to her death. Jane Asher is the empathetic computer programmer desperate to get to the bottom of the curious nature of the haunting and Michael Bryant the misogynistic creep who dismisses her concerns as hysteria when her theories become inconvenient. Broadcast on the BBC on 25th December 1972.
