TV's GOLDEN MOMENTS: 1. Kermit The Frog Turns Vincent Price Into A Vampire

It's the late 1970s. Even as a small child I have already exhibited signs of being a morbid little so-and-so, with a liking of spooky stories. My grandmother letting me stay up one night to watch a double bill of The Mummy's Hand (1940) and The Satanic Rites Of Dracula (1973) didn't help... I was hooked.

That's not to say I didn't enjoy stuff which was more firmly aimed at my age group. The Muppet Show was a particular favourite. To then see Vincent Price appearing as a guest on the show was like a dream come true, making this golden moment all the more priceless...
