Removed content about adaptation[edit]

I'd recommend creating a page for the episode and placing this here:

The whole emphasis is different.<ref>*{{cite web| date=17 September 2017| last=Griffiths| first=Eleanor Bley| title=How close is Electric Dreams: The Hood Maker to Philip K Dick’s original story?| url=http://www.radiotimes.com/news/2017-09-17/electric-dreams-the-hood-maker-differences-philip-k-dick/| accessdate=22 September 2017}}</ref> The Free Union, a repressive regime, uses people with telepathic powers called "Teeps" to root out and eliminate its political opponents. The telepaths are unhappy and oppressed, and the entire society is run down and violent. All telepaths have skin markings on their face, for unexplained reasons. Walter Franklin, a police detective, is given a telepathic woman as a partner. He also learns that someone is distributing hoods which block telepathy.

If you'd chosen to waste your own time making a needless page, OK. But the data shown is useful, so I restored it.
It is also a lot more than a lose adaptation. The telepaths seem to be villains in the story and are definitely victims in the TV version. --GwydionM (talk) 06:46, 2 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
