Calling Ghosts fans! Welcome back to Button House…👻
We’re thrilled to unveil GHOSTS: BROUGHT TO LIFE! A behind-the-curtain peek of a comedy classic: what happened on set, scenes that were left out, unaired pilots, character profiles, and much more from our favourite ghosts!
Lots of really excellent shows and performances here, but I particularly recommend voting for Ghosts, The Marlow Murder Club, and Samantha Bond, for her performance in The Marlow Murder Club. Thank you kindly!

Look, I'm not going to tell you who to vote for. I mean, what do I know? I'm basically a collection of hair wrapped around an old shoe. But if you wanted to vote in the NTA's , there's probably a comedy that has brought you 5 years of unbridled joy (tears) nationaltvawards.com/vote/ca…

Proud to EP two of the shows on RT’s covers this week. Even more proud to get to work with the brilliant people involved, not least @MeeraSyal and @SamanthaBond.
In this week’s issue, we look at the new crime wave unfolding on television in which female sleuths, often of a certain age, bring criminals to book in a style that owes much to Agatha Christie.
To some this is perfect comfort viewing - although beware of labelling them "cosy".
