Ghosts

Alison and Mike, a cash-strapped young couple struggling to buy their first home, think their prayers are answered when a distant relative bequeaths them a sprawling country estate. The catch? The old house is haunted by the ghosts of its former inhabitants.

Alison finds herself hounded by the ghosts, who now realise she can both see and hear them, and tries to ignore their existence - a tactic which only exacerbates the problem when the Captain puts the ghosts onto a war footing. Meanwhile, Mike's attempts to turn the house into a home leads to a DIY disaster.

It's Pat's 'death day' and he prepares himself for his family's annual pilgrimage to the site of his demise. But, realising that Alison is a conduit between the dead and the living, he begs her to pass on a message from the other side - a plan complicated when Pat realises a shocking truth about his marriage.

Fortune smiles on Mike and Alison when a TV company comes calling, looking for an old house in which to film a period drama. But to get the money in the bank, Alison must ensure the shoot goes without a hitch despite the horde of curious ghosts, the house's crumbling floorboards and her crippling crush on the show's lead actor.

Learning that their posh neighbours the Beg-Chetwyndes have an ancient claim over their land, Mike and Alison throw an upmarket dinner party to help resolve a thorny issue. But with the ghosts her only guide to high-class decorum, the evening starts badly and only gets worse - thanks to Mary's woeful catering.

[Final Episode] Now juggling day jobs with their endless renovations, Mike and Alison are both penniless and exhausted. But when a luxury hotel chain makes them an offer they can't refuse, the spectre of Alison's departure drives a wedge between the ghosts, and the hardline Captain finds himself ostracised while Pat is voted in as reluctant leader.
