Have to mention this obscure short horror film originally part of BBC's Ghost Story for Christmas season, as it's quite macabre and memorable.
A family in the country, comprising Peter Bowles, Kate Binchy and Maxine Gordon. He decides to move an ancient rock from his garden, even though he can see it's obviously one in a ceremonial line. Weird things start happening and the mother just bleeds and bleeds. It seems they've uncovered an ancient burial site.
She's being whisked to hospital... and then dies. It's quite unexpected and horrible, particularly underlined by Bowles' anguished exclamation of "No....!". Written by Clive Exton.
