Strange

Strange is a British television drama series, produced by the independent production company Big Bear Productions for the BBC One network. It consisted of a single one-hour pilot episode screened in March 2002, followed by a series of six one-hour episodes broadcast in the summer of 2003. The series starred Richard Coyle as a former priest who investigated the occult, and other regular roles were taken by Samantha Janus and Ian Richardson.

All seven episodes of the series were written by Andrew Marshall, a scriptwriter primarily known for his comedy work. It was directed by Joe Ahearne, who had previously been responsible for both writing and directing the World Productions vampire serial Ultraviolet for Channel 4. Broadcast on Saturday nights, the series was hampered by frequent timeslot changes, the long gap between the pilot and the series and the BBC's decision not to repeat the pilot before the series aired. The viewing figures were low, and a second series was not commissioned.
