Filming has begun on the second series of BBC One’s comedy Ghosts starring Charlotte Ritchie and Kiell Smith-Bynoe as Alison and Mike who inherit a grand country house which is both falling apart and overrun with ghosts.
The crumbling country pile of Button House is home to a troupe of restless spirits who have died there over the centuries, each ghost very much a product of their time, resigned to squabbling with each other for eternity over the most inane of daily gripes.
Ghosts was the first BBC One project for the creators and stars of Yonderland and the feature film Bill: Mathew Baynton, Simon Farnaby, Martha Howe-Douglas, Jim Howick, Laurence Rickard and Ben Willbond. The cast also includes Lolly Adefope and Katy Wix.
The creators say: “We were thrilled with how warmly series one was received and can’t wait to creak open the doors of Button House again and share another clutch of ghost stories.”
The series is commissioned by Shane Allen, Controller of Comedy Commissioning, and Charlotte Moore, Director of BBC Content. The Commissioning Editor for the BBC is Head of Comedy Kate Daughton.
Ghosts will film over the winter. Transmission details will be confirmed in due course.
