Ghosts Series Five (2023)

Ghosts Series Five (2023) written, created by, and starring Matthew Baynton, Simon Farnaby, Martha Howe-Douglas, Jim Howick, Laurence Rickard, and Ben Willbond

See my reviews of series one, series two, series three, and series four!

The new money-making scheme for Alison and Mike (the guest house burned down at the end of the last series, so no more rentals) is selling some land to real estate developers to make a golf course. A lot of complications ensue with the ghosts and with the neighbors, especially the annoyingly snooty Barclay Beg-Chetwynde. The other big change is Alison getting pregnant, which draws a lot of different reactions from everybody (even snooty Barclay).

The show has a lot of the same fun as in previous series. They are starting to run out of ideas, something they acknowledge with the final episode, which is another Christmas episode. I still enjoyed this outing with the big cast in their haunted house.
