Ghosts Series 3 the bingewatchers' thread *includes spoilers*

[SequinsandStiIettos]

Evening
Setting up the bingeing thread which, same as last year, works parallel to the concurrent one which is TV pace.
This thread is for those of us with no willpower to discuss the whole series freely.
Episode 2 with the loose women references and Pat/Kitty's dance routine was joyous was my favourite from the six.
But the whole series works - whether it's willy-shaped chess pieces or butt jokes. It's just a lovely ensemble. I also thought Mary had better lines/more to her part this time around.

Ha ha yes
And Julian being really sweet and pressing record on the camera for Mike’s perfect off the cuff video.

“Don’t tell HR” when Mike’s boss came round

I love it all!

“When Alison and Lucy are waking outside and she spots the Roundhead soldier who then chases her and bombards her with questions (“who won the war?”)”

This made me feel quite sad - at least the Button House ghosts have each other. It’s like the German airmen in series one, or the hitchhiker or the nanny and the pram…they’re all alone.

Gosh, I’d forgotten about them

I was hoping Alison would speak to the Roundhead, poor chap.

Julian and Mike's bromance is awesome.

Loved when Pat gave out badges for the camping.

I really want to know more about the adorable Robin, he's been there so long poor thing. You'd think he would have been "sucked off" by now!

Is anyone else a bit in love with Larry Rickard?

I'm going to only say Moonah from now on

@MartyHart my absolute major huge crush is on Laurence Rickard. Can’t deal with such emotions.

@Ilovemycat13 I knew I couldn't be the only one.
I think Humphrey's backstory made me more in love. How could she not love him?!

Oh Laurence Rickard is a godlike figure, just so witty and cute have you seen him on any of the zoom chats they all did last year? So adorable (tho my proper full on deep love is of course for Ben Willbond because clearly....💖💖💖💖💖👻)

@balloonsintrees can you still watch the Zoom chats? I would love to see those.
Ben Willbond is gorgeous! Did you see him (briefly) in the last Bridget Jones?

Pat asking Alison to dunk the biscuit into the tea again

From Charlotte Ritchie's reaction I thought that was total improvisation, she was laughing as Jim Howick growled at her

We also laughed a lot at Robin.

I’m genuinely devastated he’s married

You've got food taste

I've had a major, full blown crush since HH

I genuinely would run off with him if he asked me

Good taste

Good

Not good

Not food

I give up

We're already answering each other with "yes......and" for everything

Loved his dad dance in Bridget Jones!

All the chats are on YouTube- look for the 'them/there' channel

Please tell me everyone has watched this lot in Yonderland...that is truly a gift for in jokes and character. Plus 4 of the boys spend at least some of the time half naked...

Why did the old man neighbour see Julian and Julian thought he had died? I missed that

Oh yes

The monks and the bums

Larry's has the nicest one

@CloseYourEyesAndSee

He didn't see Julian, he was practicing in the mirror. Julian was the other side of the mirror 🪞 and thought he was speaking to him rather than the reflection

Ohhhhhh
Gotcha

Well I was going to pace myself but ended up binge watching all of them yesterday. I didn’t notice any weirdness with the COVID restrictions but I was trying not to look for them if that makes sense!
I can’t decide if I want Mike to be able to see the ghosts too. I hoped his potion would work but then it is funnier that he can’t see them!

I really like Larry Rickard. My husband didn’t believe me when I told him Larry played both Robin and Humphrey’s head!

So much to love:

I loved Pat handing out the badges too, and how happy the Captain was when he got a question right.

I loved the main cast playing Kitty's family.

"You'd be scared of a teddy bear if it talked ..... actually that would be scary"

Julian and Robin hanging out together (in a Covid bubble) a lot

Thomas being really poetic, until he actually tries to make up a poem.

Julian's first day as a ghost was great, loved it when he leans on the wall and falls through it.

"New guy!"

The captain nearly coming out in the circle time/therapy session.

What! Robin and Humpreys head are the same person? but how? i must google this!

Its true! That is Amazing! amazing! they look soo different how can it be!
