What do you want find out in the final series of Ghosts? Sad (sad that is it the last series)

I want to know why Pat always references France/French - I think he used to get the CDs from the Daily Mail on how to teach yourself french and had day-trips to France

If Alison and Mike's baby can see ghosts

Will Alison find out it was Julian who pushed her out of the window?

More Barclay and Bunny - no question, just like them both and want to see them in series 5

When will the next series start - I assume mid-November with final episode at Christmas 😃😭

Thank you, I didn’t know that.

Excited but at the same time sad. Glad they've decided to end it in a way incase it went on too long and lost it's charm but at the same time...its so lovely!! Such a easy watch and just lovely.

It's my favourite thing on tv- One of the few things I watch and I have watched it on iplayer endlessly. I am really sad it's ending.
Before they announced it was ending, I was thinking of ways for them to get another ghost. I thought Alison and Mike would have a baby. The ghosts would have been great with a baby.
Now I hope we'll hear how Kitty died and the captain's story- a bit about his family life and his death. I wonder if they'll all get sucked off at once at the end or if they'll start disappearing one at a time- perhaps the cellar ghosts first.
Perhaps Alison and Mike will die somehow and end up with them. I'd like Mike to meet them.
A happy ending would be the house is bought by the National Trust and Alison and Mike get to live nearby and can still go back and visit them, show them the baby.

Omg I honestly thought the last series was the finale so to hear that there will be another series is wonderful news for me!

WatchOutMissMarpleIsAbout · 21/09/2023 06:28

sad it’s ending but so happy it’s going to be on at once so can binge!

benoticanarsed · 21/09/2023 09:10

I was thinking it would be good for Mike to see the ghosts. However I don't want him to die. Maybe he could bang his head also.

Did the Robin eventually get sucked off? I can't remember.

Amazing actors and producers.

Start date 6/10/23

I went to West Horsley Place today for an open day. I don't think I've been so excited about something for years! It was fab!

I cannot wait for the final series. I'd love to know about the Captain's and Kitty's deaths.

What a joy it is and it's going to be sad to see it end but far better to go out on a high rather than limping on for much too long. looking at you Not Going Out

Did anyone watch We Are Not Alone? Bit disappointing tbh.

LIZS · 30/09/2023 12:43

We enjoyed WANA but it probably needed more chance to develop and was not recommissioned.

Mrsjayy · 30/09/2023 15:33

Aww that's rubbish definitely no spoilers I thought they would have kept it weekly with it being the last series.

mogtheexcellent · 01/10/2023 10:50

mogtheexcellent · 01/10/2023 11:01

Beyond the current live show that is. Thanks.

Needapadlockonmyfridge · 01/10/2023 11:14

Bugger. I managed to watch the last series weekly, and would love to either this one.
But too risky... don't want to hear the ending by mistake. Will have to binge!

IncognitoMam · 05/10/2023 22:10

LIZS · 05/10/2023 22:15

And it ends on a Christmas special! www.bbc.co.uk/mediacentre/2023/ghosts-christmas-special

IncognitoMam · 05/10/2023 22:18

Fantastic 😍🎄🎅

Sheisready · 06/10/2023 06:58

If they’re all released today, and we’re watching at different speeds, how shall we discuss them? Should we try having a different thread per episode?
