Is it a spoof? Verrrrry verrrrry subtle if so. Otherwise, what what what? The Scottish woman is particularly wandered.

It just seems to get dafter and dafter with each series

Yeah series 3 is a bit 🤨🤨 was enjoying it up to this

Every time Danny Robins says 'with ME, Danny Robins' 🙄 Just found out he also wrote The Cold Swedish Winter (comedy) and I quite enjoyed that. Uncanny would be so much better if it was an actual spoof.

Well I did not know that, really enjoyed The Cold Swedish Winter. Uncanny is looking more like a spoof now after knowing that.....

I thought it was a spoof. Surely it must be?? Danny Robbins is so hammy, it has to be.

Maybe they’re just running out of more plausible cases and are having to resort to daft ones?

Although the haunted toy telephone idea I’m sure I’ve seen in a book.

I really wish it was, but the Uncanny adjacent series The Battersea Poltergeist and The Witch Farm are not a spoof, as far as I can tell!

I can't stand it. I assume it's fake. One of the few things that I turn off R4 for

Anchoredowninanchorage · 13/07/2024 14:12

I thought I was the only one!! I assumed by his slightly over the top dramatic delivery and vocal style that it was a comedy show but no, it’s straight up serious documentary 😆

I love it. It's cheesy fun- you are not supposed to take it seriously.

MrsSkylerWhite · 13/07/2024 14:15

I love it too: planning a hike to Luibeilt!
