i do have a scary memory that i cannot trace the TV programme. it was some aliens in space suits, (very much like ambassadors of death 1970, but not that) walking across grass (or snow as it may be) as it was b/w, and there was a radiophonic workshop sound like a woosh shooookkkk !!! and a man in a bowler hat was trying to get into his black car was zapped and strangled by the aliens in the suits, it's still a mystery somebody once said Quatermass, but i'm not sure, it was on either BBC1, BBC2 or Harlech (HTV) sometime during the years 1972 to june 1974 at around 4pm are there any detailed information of these shows ?

I don't think somebody being strangled would be on at 4pm in the 'children's hour.' Sure it wasn't much later in the evening?

it could be the Anglia play 'menace in cold blood' shown sometime in 1975, does that ring a bell?

To me that sounds like the Cybernauts from The Avengers.

its not the cybernauts
nothing to do with cybermen either
it was very much like 1969 space suits
also the new avengers wasnt around at the time of the memory, and as ive seen all the repeats, its def not that
ruled off the list is Dr Who, New Avengers
and also it was around 4pm, as a little toddler i would have been packed off to bed just after in 1972-74, I remember that it was late afternoon before the lights would go on.
ps many things were strangled on Dr who in kids peak time tv in the 70's.......
shame there isnt TV clips that we could download to conform these things, like napster etc for TV clips

NO def not 1975, i remember clearly, that i viewed it our old house in weston-super-mare where we lived in from Sept 1971 to june 1974 so that ties that down to the three channels and a time scale and a location BBC1, BBC2, ITV or as it was then ITA Harlech (HTV) early evening...... shame there is no online tv schedules for this time...... anyone have any Radio Times/TV times from these two dates the closest to the sound is in the 1969 film "Performance" with Mick Jagger/Edward Fox so what other science fiction shows or films were shown around this time (it wasnt at night time, it was between 3pm and 6pm)

Could it be the late 60's film Invasion, written by Robert Holmes? That was made in mono.
OR Gerry Anderson's UFO? That was made in 69 and the aliens did kill people, but the clip doesn't ring any bells.
