Thriller 303 Death To Sister Mary-Jarnkaminen

First Aired: 21st May 1974


Penny Stacey plays one of the resident nuns in the television soap opera Saints And Sinners, and is flattered to find a young man outside her dressing room one day talking of forming a fan club dedicated to the character Sister Mary. Only too willing to bolster her own career, Penny eagerly assists the peculiar Rook and even gives him her home address. Shortly after however, a number of fatal or near fatal accidents begin to befall the various cast members and the police suspect it may be a viewer harbouring a grudge. Yet despite his oddness, no one suspects the harmless looking Rook, who is in fact living in a dangerous fantasy world where Sister Mary stands at the centre of his obsessions.
