Name: The Oracle
Genre: Drama
Released: 1979-03-12
Cast: John Gregg, Tina Bursill, Julie Hamilton

Part of a great Monday night's viewing on ABC in 1979. Danger UXB may have been first, then The Oracle and then 1990 with Edward Woodward and Robert Lang.

Anyway there were several episodes - not one as seems to be suggested - and to its further credit there was the album cover of The Babys classic Broken Heart amongst the wall decorations. My favourite group.

How easy it will be to obtain any of this very entertaining drama is conjecture, but the acting and plots were first class and if it has been lost then it is to our shame. John Gregg and Pamela Gibbons were an early example of a life in the fast lane brutally handsome terminally pretty couple.

The drama genre is a broad category that features stories portraying human experiences, emotions, conflicts, and relationships in a realistic and emotionally impactful way. Dramas delve into the complexities of human life, often exploring themes of love, loss, morality, societal issues, personal growth, with the aim to evoke an emotional response from the audience by presenting relatable and thought-provoking stories.
