Ghosts BBC 1

[LIZS]

Anyone else at the original Horrible Histories crew reuniting again for this!

Can't believe it's the last one tomorrow. I'm not ready to let them go, I've got so many questions about them all and their experience. I want to see all of their death days and I want to see what it was like for each of them when they met the other ghosts and realised their fate.

I had a strange dream last night about Jim too - I was in the same room as him and couldn't stop staring at his eyes. They were hypnotic. Oddly, Dream-Jim wasn't completely freaked out by the stranger staring at him like a crazy woman and didn't run away.

I don’t want to say bye to them either. I’ll have to watch it on repeat. It’s been so good and so short.

I love this show! It seems quite likely it will get a second series.

I just went over to one of the major fanfiction sites to see if Ghosts had made it there. There are already about 30 Ghosts fanfiction stories up there so that's a good sign it has acquired a cult following!

Does anyone know if all the episodes are on YouTube? I missed Pat’s death day, which was the third one I think, due to bloody mil visiting!

MadGardener, please can you let us know where the fan fiction sites are? Thanks

The episodes are in iPlayer.

Thanks Dobby but unfortunately I can’t get Iplayer in South Africa.

AnArchiveOfOurOwn (aka AO3) certainly has a fair amount of Ghosts fiction.

CoolCarrie Sorry, if course you can’t.

My DB was here when the series started he liked it, but it wasn’t in YouTube so he couldn’t watch anymore as he lives overseas too.

I'm going to have a rewatch from ep1 tonight after the dcs are in bed.
Surely there'll be a second series?

I've been watching them all again today. Every time I watch them I notice something else.

I've only just noticed that Humphrey's body takes part in the Moonah Stona ritual!

Tank you to OP for starting this thread. I was interested in the trailers for Ghosts but forgot to watch out for it in the listings so didnt know when it was on.
So I have just had a very happy 2 .1/2 hours watching all of the episodes so far.
Devastated that there was only 5 as I thought the series had ended so I had another episode to go.
Really devastated as I was settled in my comfy chair with a bottle glass of wine and had even put aside my tablet so I could concentrate on the screen.
Please note that this is a rare occurrence as I tend to have Tv and tablet on at the same time. Nothing usually takes my interest enough to be exclusive .
When is the next one on?

Tomorrow night miaCara. I also rarely watch anything without doing something else but I've watched this fully-focused a number of times now. It really is brilliant.

@CoolCarrie
This should be the episode you missed.
Hopefully this website works in SA

I really really like it too. Wasn't expecting much going in to it but it's so warm and gently funny and everyone in it is brilliant. I want to know more about all of them and for poor Humphrey to get his body back.

I've rewatched. For those involved in the 'when does Thomas reveal he was shot?' convo earlier in the thread I can confirm it's within the first ten seconds of episode one.

I do love this series.

It's funny how we know quite a bit about some and virtually nothing about the others. The Captain for example - we don't even know his name.

Isn't it Captain Sexy? Or is that just me thinking that!

Haha! Ben Willbond looks fabulous in whatever he wears (see 5 series of Horrible Histories and 3 series of Yonderland) he is classically good looking. Everything suits him.

Humphrey's head is very good looking in this series and if attached to his body would win in the sexy stakes as far as I'm concerned, and I'm also feeling it for Robin in a weird way. But then I also liked the actor as Bob Hail so my views may be suspect.

Isn't it Captain Sexy? Or is that just me thinking that!

Def not just you @MoonahStone.

Countdown until the series finale, I hope they leave it on a cliff hanger to ensure it comes back wishfulthinking

Look Pat waving goodbye

I'll be so upset if there's not another series. I'm a miserable bugger normally but this really made me laugh on so many occasions. And I shed a wee tear too (baby Pat?)

Oh no I don't want to wave bye bye to Pat.

I love all of them. Every detail is perfect. They must do another series. Another 10 series. At least.

Honestly look at the dross the BBC recommissions (Not Going Out and Mrs Brown's Boys for example) and now they have a true gem - brilliantly scripted and acted and a stonker of an idea - surely they can't let that go?

The BBC are better than ITV at recommissioning series imo, I haven’t forgiven ITV for cancelling the brilliant Home Fires 😡
