ON 15 JULY 2016, THE DUFFER Brothers unleashed a bold new television drama on Netflix. Starring Winona Ryder, David Harbour and a host of fresh-faced newcomers, Stranger Things introduced the masses to Demogorgons, the Mind Flayer and the marvellous mystery of the Upside Down. The coming-of-age story delicately balanced themes of supernatural horror with '80s nostalgia, along with slivers of drama, romance and comedy - and fans flocked.
LIGHTS, CAMERA, ACTIONStranger Things' very first scene takes place in Hawkins, Indiana. It's 6 November 1983 and a star-filled sky fills the screen before the camera pans down to an exterior shot of Hawkins National Laboratory for the US Department of Energy.

ALTERED STATES
Essentially Dr Jekyll And Mr Hyde if it'd been written by Carlos Castenada, Ken Russell's characteristically unrestrained take on a script by Network's Paddy Chayefsky is a bracing mix of acid trip visuals and hoary old tropes.
