Spooktacul­ar sitcom from the Horrible Histories gang

-

The second series of this gentle, familyfrie­ndly sitcom is currently airing on BBC1 on Mondays, but the entire box set is available to stream, alongside its predecesso­r. Written and performed by faces familiar from Horrible Histories and Yonderland, the plot follows the fortunes of Alison and Mike (Charlotte Ritchie and Kiell Smith-Bynoe, above centre), a young couple who, after struggling to get on the housing ladder, are thrilled to learn they’ve inherited a manor house. But there are two problems: the property is in a state of disrepair and it’s inhabited by a bunch of ghosts who are not particular­ly thrilled about sharing their home. BBC iPlayer, available now
