Since the passing of the Broadcasting Act 1990, it has been legally known as Channel 3 to distinguish it from the other analogue channels at the time: BBC1, BBC2 and Channel 4.

The series tended to feature single dramas with a science fiction, supernatural and occasionally satirical theme.

Some episodes were originally produced for the 1981 ITV children's anthology series Theatre Box and then were re-screened as Dramarama episodes.
