Got this vague recollection of a movie about some strange white cobwebby type stuff that coated everything.. it was painful to touch or burned or something. Eventually it gets washed away by the rain. Must have been v young when I saw it but a few images have stayed with me.

Ring any bells. Wd love to track it down.

I think this was an episode of Swiss Family Robinson, when a meteorite hit their island, and started spreading all this "radioactive" stuff.

Jordancaddy - do you know ? I think you're right. Well done that man ! I was only about 5 but for some reason it's bugged me for years and I've just read the synopsis of that episode called 'the intruder' and it sounds exactly right.

Now to track that down on eBay or something!

You must have a good memory. Thanks

Lol, no problem. That was the only episode that stood out for me because it was very bizarre.
