''Children of the Stones'' was a British children's drama series filmed in 1976 by HTV. It was set in the village of Milbury (filmed at [http://en.[wikipedia.org/wiki/:Avebury,_Wiltshire Wiltshire|Avebury]]), which is surrounded by a Stone Circle.

The story centres on Professor Brake and his son, Matthew. They arrive in Milbury, where most of the villagers seem to be acting strangely.

Apart from the Brakes, only three other families seem to be unaffected. Then, one by one, they also join the ranks of the ''Happy Ones''.
