The Lasting Legacy of Nigel Kneale – a video essay by Tristan Thompson


2022 is a year of important centenaries. As well as being 100 years since Nosferatu and 100 years since the birth of Christopher Lee, this year also marks 100 years since the birth of Nigel Kneale. An acclaimed writer, he's been the creative force behind many of the UK's most significant science-fiction masterpieces such as Quatermass, The Stone Tape and 1984. Tristan Thompson narrates Abertoir's brand new video essay, exploring the lasting legacy of one of Britain's most unique creative voices.
