They are delighted to have something they can watch all together that isn’t algorithmically pointed towards their generation. “But what really touches me about that is that she’s so much fonder of the ghosts that she would ever admit. I love that because there’s an undertone of real love that is completely reluctant because they drive her up the wall and make things so difficult for Mike, too. “The ghosts are driving her crazy! “Obviously, it’s exaggerated and I’m pushing it for certain effects, but she feels very human, despite being in a kind of cartoony world.

It's the not knowing the intent behind whatever, and having an official person who decides that takes it away from you. Honestly, working with Zawe Ashton and Kimberly Nixon on [Fresh Meat] was really formative for me. They're both very, very principled and very, very hardworking and very good. They were amazing role models for me at 21. So I think it's hard being an actor because you can't do it in a vacuum, so you do really feel validated by the fact that you're working, but you can be an actor and not be working.

I want people to miss it and us, and therefore be excited when we come back with something new. What to Watch is part of Future plc, an international media group and leading digital publisher. Ghosts has been one of the warmest and most consistent comedies of the last few years.
What are your own Christmas plans?
I can’t remember the last thing I did for five years. School was probably the last thing I did consistently for five years. In her spare time, Caren enjoys going to the cinema and theatre or curling up with a good book.
The US version of Ghosts has been a big hit too, would you like a cameo?!
Movies Editor, Digital Spy Ian has more than 10 years of movies journalism experience as a writer and editor. After moving to Digital Spy, initially as a TV writer, he was nominated for New Digital Talent of the Year at the PPA Digital Awards. Where he can, he continues to push his horror agenda – whether his editor likes it or not. But in the meantime, I'm doing little projects and little, tiny things. But it's been nice to have a bit of break and be at home, and to have kind of normal hours for a bit.
It was sad to say goodbye to something which has been so much fun. But at the same time, it's just been such an incredible thing to have done. Going into it, none of us had any idea that it would go on to become what it has. We’re all very un-alike as people. Six more un-alike people you couldn’t hope to find.
It’s good for our stock as a creative engine. They have seen there is a vein of pathos in there as well. When you're the bossy chops of the group, it's easy to just be that. But I think the softening of her relationship with Alison has helped that journey as well.
Did you take any souvenirs after filming?
But this season feels higher-stakes because they're not on Plan A now; they're on Plan J. I think the writers are really smart. They knew that it was the right choice. I think we just were just getting to the point where everyone was very comfy in their parts, and it was just the right point to finish. A lot of the feedback I've got from people has been that they think it's cool to quit while you're ahead. As we begin the series, while Alison and Mike search for new ways to keep Button House going after the gatehouse fire, they receive some unexpected news that will bring about major changes for them and the Ghosts.
Ghosts tells the story of a young couple, Alison (Charlotte Ritchie) and Mike (Kiell Smith-Bynoe), who unexpectedly inherited a grand country estate only to find it is both falling apart and overrun with ghosts. “They are real team players, and that really shines through. “It’s very nicely tailored to everybody’s specific history. Also, of course, it’s still a comedy, and it’s not trying to be anything more than that.

Social media can be quite vicious but it’s so rare that we get any negative feedback and that's just unheard of really. The show may not be everyone's cup of tea but it's been so embraced by the nation, and for that we couldn't be happier. It’s quite a strange concept to have a show where the lead characters are dead, something we slightly fear. I know a lot of other countries have plans to remake it. It works because everywhere has got a history.
It brings in those topics in a way that makes them fun to explore. I guess she's the baby of the group, and people feel quite protective of her, especially considering that she had didn't have the easiest time when she was alive. Despite that, she is this constant source of positivity. She has her tantrums and cries a lot as well, but she tends to be the optimist. She is always positive, and that's a very good quality.
I think that’s lovely that they’ve done that. David started out as a writer for TV Times before becoming the title's deputy features editor and then features editor. During his time on TV Times, David also helped run the annual TV Times Awards. David is a huge Death in Paradise fan, although he's still failed to solve a case before the show's detective! He also loves James Bond and controversially thinks that Timothy Dalton was an excellent 007.
It was going to be not quite the full dream of a hotel, but something that they could afford to do which would be a stepping-stone towards their ideal of making a living through the house. They realised that in the process of trying to make it successful, they had put a lot of strain on themselves and their relationship, and it wasn't a joyful thing anymore. They have nailed their tone, which is a great blend of comedy and tragedy. They create such a wide breadth of characters as well, which means that it's always fun to watch and that you're never bored.
Charlotte’s brother, Luke, is, like her, also a singer/songwriter. The siblings often collaborate, and shared their beautiful performances on YouTube. Their EP Light of "Another" was released in 2014. Luke continues to perform although Charlotte focuses mainly on her acting career these days.
I'm trying a lot to be aware of how lucky I am all the time, and I'll find myself sometimes listening to one of them do the scene, I'll be in the scene with them but I'll also be just enjoying their performance. I think it's simply that audiences enjoy watching a gang of people with differing opinions. Everyone has a family or a friendship group that they perhaps squabble with from time to time. I think the Ghosts represent that. They all have differing values and principles, and so they can learn from one another. It’s a model that works because it's essentially a family unit.
