Thanks for the kind messages re the Christmas special. Here’s some snaps from Pat’s gaff. The level of detail (thanks to production designer Andrew Lavin and his team) was extraordinary. The 40 somethings plus in the crew were giddy with nostalgia!

Key to that coda scene is ‘usual room’. In our minds Alison visits the ghosts often, just as if they are family.

New #BBCGhosts is a-coming Monday night and that absolutely would not be possible without our incredible crew. Both on set and post. Their professionalism and diligence, filming in very different and difficult circumstances is the reason we’re ready.
4 more sleeps!

This decade has been my most enjoyable. Even more then the heady 90’s. I married a beautiful woman, raised a handsome dog, finally purchased a season ticket and managed to do the thing I like to do the most. Laugh. A lot. And that’s largely down to this lot. Squad goals huh?

Just come across that awful piece in the telegraph about Ellie Simmonds on SCD. People who are outraged about seeing people on tv that don’t look like them are fucking weirdos.

Our (lovely) neighbours have milk delivered. Thing is it’s at 3am and really loud. I lie awake for an hour and a half stewing about exactly why anyone would need milk delivered in N London. The shops and groceries are boundless. 24 hour!! Wake up gagging for a coffee. No milk.

The puppeteering world lost a legend yesterday. Phil Eason. He had worked on Star Wars, Labyrinth, Dark Crystal, Little Shop of Horrors, and luckily for us, Yonderland. He was Demon Jeff amongst others. A lovely, funny man who will be sadly missed by all who knew him.

As we look forward to 2024 we know we will miss our BBC family, who normally come to us every winter to film #BBCGhosts.
Without them, can you help us in our mission to repair the manor house?

Without being able to gather in person to protest this benign dictatorship. We must never stop protesting here. This is a new low. Regardless of who we voted for, whether we’re left or right. this is nothing but contempt for those who acted responsibly.
