Oh good! I’m one of those who hated the ending so it will be nice to have another way to say goodbye to them

Why is Simon Farnaby doing random adverts? He must have made some decent money from Ghosts

Maybe it's just easy money? I'm assuming you're talking about the Skipton ads?

I'm sure financially he's ok. Don't forget he's also writing credits for Paddington 2 and Wonka and a load of books and stuff.

You never know though. Do they do it for exposure? Money for another project? Just fancied it? Why does Olivia Coleman, Sylvester Stallone, Robert De Nero do Warburtons ads?

I remember seeing years back an interview Judi Dench did.
I believe she did some adverts for a brand of butter. When asked why she did it, she replied “It paid for this house!”
So it must be pretty lucrative.

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 😅

Just spotted that there’s an Australian version on iPlayer; I’m partway through the first episode, and I’m liking it more than the US version

Ive just started watching the Aussie series. I'm not sure about it yet so I'll watch a couple more episodes. I don't think the actors are as good as the UK version and it's not making me laugh as much so far though 🫠
 
I'm quite enjoying it. It'll never be as good as the original but I already prefer it to the US version. It could do with a couple more ghosts though, it feels a bit thin on the ground and I don't know how far they'll get storyline wise with so few of them.

I think I’ve watched about 3 episodes so far, and this sums up my thoughts too: not a patch on the original (though nothing ever could be), but it’s pleasant enough and is far more watchable than the dire US version.

I'm up to the Ned Kelly episode and I think i need to retract my statement🤣 that was pretty diabolical🤣 I think while they stick loosely to the UK plots it's fine. I like all of the ghosts though, which is something I can't say about the US version where I don't like any of them!
