And they needed to sell and move cos they couldn’t afford to stay. Would have been nice for them to stay there though 😢
Whatever ending they chose , not everyone would have been happy with it.

Blondeshavemorefun · 25/12/2023 20:35

I didn't sob

But it had to end

But shame they didn't stay in the house

DD and I in tears.

We loved it and thought it was a perfect way to end the show.

Plague ghosts at the end 😁

I thought it said Higham suite but I couldn't think of the relevance..?

Isn’t Higham Kitty’s surname ?

Giggorata · 25/12/2023 20:36

Too much mother in law and baby stuff, and not enough ghosts interaction.. but I suppose that's what would happen.

So glad Button House wasn't left empty and the ghosts had lots of people to watch - and maybe even find more people who could see them.
It looks as though Alison and Mike have been returning for visits ever since they left, so that was sweet.

I thought that at least one of the ghosts might have got sucked off.

Best outcome was the plague ghosts in the sauna.

Tootytoot78 · 25/12/2023 20:37

I too thought they might have been exorcised, glad they weren't though. I do feel a bit let down by the ending, just felt a tad rushed

I'm going to binge watch the whole blimmin' series on IPlayer just to revel in the gloriousness that was Ghosts.

Atre · 25/12/2023 20:38

I love that they got one last Fanny joke in.

Isn't the suite name the family name?

The actual ending was lovely. I'm giving them a pass for the poor pacing in the first half because I love the programme very much and I love them all so much.

Nice observation that Xmas is a passing fad for Robin. There were some gorgeous moments.

covetingthepreciousthings · 25/12/2023 20:38

@EtonMessy ah yes think you might be right. Maybe each of the ghosts got a suite.

charliecoopershair · 25/12/2023 20:40

Perfect last episode! We all loved it 💕

JaninaDuszejko · 25/12/2023 20:40

That was not the ending I wanted at all. She's just going to see Ghosts everywhere else. And the poor ghosts have noone to look after them. And the plague pit does not redeem it. Watching Derry Girls to recover.

Ah yes, that rings a bell.

Splodgerbodgerbadger · 25/12/2023 20:41

I thought it was a good episode and a good ending. Yes it wasn’t the best episode but it was building up to why they left. The fact that it was turned into a hotel would mean the ghosts weren’t alone, yes they might not have been able to interact but it’s not like being in a house with no one else.

The fact that Mike and Alison went back when they were old implies they visited every year, the plague ghosts at the end were funny.

LuluBlakey1 · 25/12/2023 20:41

Lady Button - is it a euphemism for 'clitoris'? Just thought of that.
Fanny Button too- I mean I got the 'fanny' jokes but the button bit has just occurred to me.

Kernackered · 25/12/2023 20:43

I was so sure Mike would die and become a ghost and get to meet them all. It didnt go down well in my house either. She'd miss them too much and once a year to visit wouldn't be enough for Alison or the ghosts.

GrandHighPoohbah · 25/12/2023 20:45

I would have loved it if Mike had finally been able to see the ghosts.

GrandHighPoohbah · 25/12/2023 20:45

I would have loved it if Mike had finally been able to see the ghosts.

Yes I'd have loved that too. I think that would have been a nice ending, maybe he could have had an accident rather than dying or maybe the exorcism went wrong and meant he could have seen them.

youngestisapsycho · 25/12/2023 20:47

Higham suite . That was kitty's last name . The house was called Higham house before the buttons took over

BillStickersIsInnocent · 25/12/2023 20:48

Did they say it was a visit only once a year? The receptionist said “your usual room” so I’d like to think they visit often.

Exactly. Who is going to put Loose Women on, turn their book pages, play chess, give them internet access etc.

Mzrcd · 25/12/2023 20:49

It didn't work as an episode for me, particularly in the context of series 5 but even as a stand alone episode. The exorcism was a clever idea but didn't fully pay off and I don't think Alison would have left her 'family'.

cuthbertthecat · 25/12/2023 20:53

@LuluBlakey1 yes Grin. I never get tired of it because I am a 14 year old boy.

I thought it was a good ending. I couldn't think of a way that they could afford the house, have a family and keep up the ghost upkeep. Having them sucked off would have left her without her family and Mike/Alison couldn't die.

I loved Mike warning them about the exorcism, the Captain trying the baby talk and the plague pit/sauna.

CaptainThomasPatButtonHall · 25/12/2023 20:55

I cried. I had hoped when they ended like that Mike and/or Alison was going to die in the hotel but that would have been too cliche I think.

A lovely ending but the mother in law stuff was too much though.

dapsnotplimsolls · 25/12/2023 21:03

Too much MIL, not enough of the ghosts.

heartsinvisiblefury · 25/12/2023 21:08

I loved it! 😭😭😭

CaveMum · 25/12/2023 21:08

I liked it. The last few minutes made me cry but the plague ghosts pulled it back for one final chuckle.
