Ghosts - BBC

Plus he can't have left the grounds to die in battle, otherwise he wouldn't be there now.

Ahh, of course. Good point. I know that's part of the storyline but I hadn't really thought about it in relation to the captain, so I always assumed he died in battle.

Behind a spoiler just in case nobody has yet viewed

Spoiler: Mary

Has Katy Wix left the series? I was surprised when she was suddenly 'sucked up'.

Sunday weather forecast is dark, dreary and wet which means; couch, blanket, candle, brew and watching from episode 1….again

sheer bliss

Sounds like a plan!

I've never seen an episode of ghosts. It passed me by.

Would I be able to follow the film if I went to see it???

There's been a fair few marvel films I've been totally bewildered by cos I didn't watch the TV show.

It’s definitely beneficial to have watched the full series beforehand, but I’m sure the film would still be enjoyable without the background knowledge. I’d definitely recommend watching at least season 1 episode 1&2 before the film though as it will help explain how/why Alison can see the ghosts and give you a flavour of each character.

We're going on Wednesday and I am so excited.

It’s so weird to think that the actor of Mike has to act like he can’t see the ghost actors right in front of him!
Pat has my whole heart
Also I’m pretty sure I read that Robin and Humphrey are the same actor, I wonder how that works when they’re filming

They are the one actor.

Larry Rickard is Robin and Humphrey

You can’t fake the kind of camaraderie that exists between the creative team behind Ghosts says member Larry Rickard.

I enjoyed the Christmas special, yes it had an moral tug to it (which isn't my thing) but I preferred it to the first Christmas special.

I like seeing the plague people, they be fab!

Just thought of something sad. When you think about all the time periods the ghosts are from, just think how long the caveman was alone for. Nobody to talk to.

OK that hurts my heart, I'm not emotionally stable enough right now to think about that

I've just watched Bill.

If you like Horrible Histories and Ghosts, you'll like this.

where do you watch it? Tried searching and I am just getting results for 'The Bill'!

 

[Scotch Mist]

I reeeallly hope so it's the best thing that's been on TV for ages.
I'm not sure how they could make Mary's death funny though

The running theme seems to be that all of them did something foolish inadvertently causing their own death !

Was Mary burned as a witch? Or did she just burn the cakes? I see what you mean about that being a bit problematic though.

I've just got home from seeing the film at the cinema.
It was bloody hilarious, really well written and all the characters were on top form. It was also moving in parts and very action packed.
Have to say also that Kitty was excellent in this.

It was a shame that there was only about 10 people at the screening. It's the best film I've seen in ages. I wonder if the audience would be bigger on TV these days.

Weather maybe? It’s been miserable where I am. Wouldn’t be going unless it was necessary.

I’m excited about seeing it soon after your review

I really enjoyed it & bawled at the ending

 

[MitziAdele]

Some of them look so different out of costume....especially Fanny, Mary and Robin.

 

[Vee6]

Bloody love this show. A cave man ghost - hahahahah!!

There was hardly anyone there at our screening but everyone was laughing out loud. Its very sharply written.

 

[Sprezza]

True but those are more cameos. These are more faceless roles. He's an odd mix of not being famous enough for a celebrity endorsement but too famous to be an anonymous face in an advert.

On a side note, one of my favourite things is spotting actors who appear in multiple adverts

 

[ElectricDreams]

I love Robin but also have a soft spot for Pat

 

[dorydaryl]

I really hope there's a Xmas episode this year.

I would love to see them inviting people to attend a ghost hunt. Psychic investigators would be fun. It would also be interesting if someone else visiting could see the ghosts.

We still don't know how Kitty died do we?
I would like to see that properly explained next.

They've kind of done that already in an earlier episode and it backfired because the ghosts were having a protest and wouldn't 'perform', so Alison and Mike started faking stuff and got caught out!

After watching tonight's episode (I'm resisting binge watching the rest of the series but it's going to be difficult), it just gets better and better.

 

[Aussie]

Just come back from watching it was really good abd funny definitely recommend

I absolutely loved it

 

[SkinkaareFan]

Absolutely love this show. Always has us laughing out loud. I think they were due to start filming series 3 in February so I hope they can still manage to go ahead and do that!

It's had the perfect balance between funny and so heart warming.

I think it was the perfect ending, not the one I wanted necessarily, but the one that needed to happen. I like the idea that Alison and Mike went back to visit and the plague ghosts got a happy ending!

Showed my daughter this and she agreed massively
