Shadows - Series 2 - Complete (DVD)

An orphaned girl fights her real-life enemies by believing they are figures from her history book. A young girl suddenly finds herself in the miniature world of a Victorian doll's house. A downtrodden teenage boy relives the ancient legend of a youth who shared his plight - in reality, or in his imagination? Atmospheric, superbly scripted and filled with the unexpected, this anthology series offered spine-tingling psychological and supernatural tales for younger viewers. With characters typically finding themselves plunged into strange alternative realities, or encountering ghostly figures from the past, the young protagonists' otherworldly experiences often play upon common teenage fears and preoccupations. Award-winning authors Penelope Lively, Rosemary Harris, Joan Aiken and Susan Cooper are among the writers for this complete second series.
