In the fifth series and following the destruction of their B&B - and main income - in the gatehouse fire, Alison and Mike look towards other means of making ends meet and contemplate a new chapter that could have a huge effect on the Ghosts’ (after)lives.

One of the best shows of recent years. Gonna miss it
Same
@@stephaniepage4334 me as well😢
@@user-oc8no5jc2r I'd like to see older mike Alison with their biological great grandchildren later on future ending then alison Mike died of old age then ghosts wait for them?
It’s such a shame it will only last for five years. All great uk shows end early though.
@@stephaniepage4334 he'd have to die in Button house.
THE most lovely cast . . . ever. Will miss these characters, their beautiful faces and this brilliant series.
So talented.
@@jeffgreen7629 definitely
Feel incredibly lucky to have grown up with these guys with Horrible Histories and Yonderland. Ghosts has been amazing and I've loved every minute of it, it's one of the best comedy shows I've seen, and a huge comfort show for me. Season 5 was a lovely ending, and can't wait for the Christmas special 🤞🏼
I never watched Yonderland. How did you find it?
@@sheniahasiamah9802Its really good
me too
In the past 20 years I would say that Ghosts (UK, not the USA version) is included in my funniest series list - perhaps at the top. I was watching S05E01 last night and laughing out loud. The writers also do an amazing job tugging at the heartstrings too when one least expects it. The whole premise of the show is so fresh and unique. Sad to see it end.
I'm English and I love the US version..at least I have that to fill the gap
Both shows have their charms. However why even mention the US version when we are obviously on a video featuring the UK version? No one would even think you referencing the US version. It seems like you are overcompensating.
Finished the UK series and watching the US version. Expectations were low as with most adaptations, but it's actually pretty good. It's less subtle and the dialogue seems less genuine than the UK version but I really like their spin on the characters
I wish CBS would play all the seasons of Ghost UK in full. I love this show. It’s impossible to pick one favorite character, since they are all hilarious. The American version just doesn’t do it for me and I’m American.
I can confirm that the toilets are amazing at the house. The floor has sections of reinforced glass and you can see part of the floor that date back to Saxon times.
I'm gonna miss Ghosts a lot 🥺 I absolutely loved gradually seeing the backstories of the ghosts, it was satisfying to finally find out what happened to Kitty and the captain. The show was so entertaining and well written
God I’m going to miss Ghosts…..if only they’d do a Christmas Special each year for us, that would ,for all us fans make us SO SO happy. The ratings would go through the roof and my husband and I would snuggle up on the sofa and almost pee ourselves laughing!! One of the best BBC productions for a long long time.
Has there been a better sitcom from the last five years or so? Effortlessly re-watchable. Thanks BFI for uploading this.
In a trouble world, Ghosts brought sweetness and innocence, so benign and funny and heartwarming. It's all the good things about us.. apart when Julian tried to murder Alison of course!
Series 5 was incredible, I'm so excited for the Christmas special! ❤
I’m really looking forward to it, I expect it will reduce me to tears, the other Specials did. What a talented bunch of people they are.
Yeah, I'd skip it if I were you. You'll thank me later.
@@coppershark1973 that's not very nice. just because you didn't like it you shouldn't go around and tell people not to watch it. I (and many other people) thought it was great.
@coppershark1973 I really disliked it too. I would have written the ending far differently.
We've been to Button House (West Horsley Place) twice this year. First for a walk around and second for a filming tour. The filming tour was centred around Ghosts and opened many of the rooms out of bounds to general visitors. What a fantastic place it is, steeped in history, some of which is so similar to the Ghosts backstory. They filmed everything in the house and grounds so it really was a home from home for them all. I would urge anyone to go.
"All i can say is I'm sorry"YOU SHOULD BE i know the scene and i cry every time
Binged in one evening - went to bed at 1am.... No regrets! It was such a great season. I'm really going to miss it!
I did exactly the same. Here’s looking forward to Christmas.
Yes it’s only a tv series ,but, genuinely, I’m devastated it’s ending, not only is it fabulous but my son and I ( he’s now 14) have watched every episode umpteen times and that has been priceless,special memories 😢 happy ,sad tears
I did the same with outlander I never wanted it to end..the books not the show. but this series has given me so many laughs,cries.. it’s incredible

I've followed these guys since Horrible Histories and I love everything they do. I'll miss Ghosts but they're clever to end on a high. Some shows go on too long. We have the reruns to enjoy and I look forward to their next venture. They clearly love working with each other.
Having now watched all of season 5, I can say that It was a terrific ending. It left me feeling happy 😃
I love yonderland as well, they did an amazing job with the series
I love the show so much! The writing, the character, the story is just *chef's kiss*. Thank you to the Six Idiots for making this modern-classic show and to everyone involved in the show ❤️✨
I love the six idiots. Such fantastic writers, stories, sense of humour. Every time I see Fanny Button , it takes me back to my school (Ripon Grammar) where I was taught English in the 80s by Miss Carrick, who had the same looks, mannerisms, old fashioned-ness and walk and was so strict nobody ever dared breathe in her classes!
I really miss their series’ when they stop making them. Wonder what they will do next? I would love to see them all together doing Taskmaster. Please, make it happen. Put them all on The Wheel too with Michael McIntyre. We need more comedy in our lives and I can’t bear them not being on TV- some consolation I have all of Yonderland and Ghosts recorded.
Simon’s impression of Kylie as an Aussie bloke is my new favourite thing
Hilarious show, wonderful cast. Really miss it.
Beyond honoured to have been able to be at this event and it was such a special time. They are all wonderful people, incredibly talented and so entertaining. Plus, they were genuinely kind and so engaging with the fans when they were signing in the meet and greet.
I will truly miss this show and all its’ lovely characters! Especially the Captain.❤
Hi! I'm going to the night about the companion book for the show. I was just wondering how long the show/panel lasted when you went? I'm just trying to arrange transport for it but there's no runtime at all. Just thought I'd ask🙂
@Anna-nr6uc should be listed on the FANE event page (but isnt)
The FANE FAQ say most events are 110 mins including a 20 minute interval. Could be longer (don't think it'll be shorter) though as the page doesn't say which is frustrating
I have been watching this on repeat for some time and have only just realised Humphrey and Robin are played by the same actor 😊
I loved this interview. I'd love to see a panel with Katy Wix included that talks about the whole show. Preferably after the Christmas special so that it can be about everything. I'm gutted as well :(
I kept looking for Robin's actor and never realized he played both Robin and Humphrey (and one of the pit ghosts).
So joyful. What a brilliant ensemble of actors and writers. How could you not be jealous of their friendship!? 🥰🥰
They say its the last, but its one of those genius series where they could always bring it back, if they felt that itch again.....probably my wishful thinking. 😂 I just loved it so much and the last episode made me cry like a baby, pun unintended. ❤❤❤
I am so bummed out that the last episode was today (yesterday) and I am still sitting around waiting for Series Four. I absolutely love these characters and love these actor-comedians. As so many others have stated, I will MISS these characters. But I look forward to what these fantastic people do next, hopefully TOGETHER, again!
I have loved and followed this guys since Horrible Histories and I watched them in Yonderland and Bill, but for me Ghosts is the best thing this guys have created and I'm really going to miss so much and it's not just the show but the characters as well who for the last 5 years have sort of become TV friends to mine (Hopefully I'm not the only one who things that), and I want to say is Thank you guys for the giving us 5 years of this wonderful show and I hope that this isn't trulty the end of Ghosts, and that the show could one day return for another christmas special, or any other specials in the future, and I think that Ghosts will become and forever be one of the greatest British Comedies of all time, so thank you guys and can't wait to see what this guys will do next.
Brilliantly funny without being crude. Looking forward to the Christmas special, just a shame there won't be any more, gonna miss this show.
I was there. They were all being really funny, trying to outdo each other for the lols. Thank you cast and crew and BFI. x
Such an amazing show, binged the entire final series in one evening and was very emotional! Every character is wonderful, it's hard to say goodbye but they have done the, all justice ❤
Oh man, I’m choked up, and I wasn’t involved in it. Such a unique and fabulous group of people.
This show is like a warm blanket! I just love it so much!!!!❤❤❤
I agree...it was lovely. 💗
There's so much nasty, violent stuff on TV nowadays, this is a rare gem of a series.
You may like "Detectorists" too
I only started this show a couple of days ago and it quickly became one of my favourite shows. So sad it's over 😢
Was there and it was an amazing evening, what lovely and talented people. Here's to more from the six. And Ben is just beautiful.
hilarious bunch of people! devastated to see the show end but I'm so grateful to have had it for 5 glorious seasons of it
In years to come they will be remembered with previous British comedy greats.
One of the BBC’s best ever comedies!
I've just watched the last episode and it brought tears to my eyes, such a lovely episode.
Loved the whole series,made me laugh out loud so much. Going to miss it. Thank you for your amazing talent guys ❤
I’m ready to watch it all again as Iv booked the film Button House tour….I CANNOT WAIT!
Thank you everyone for such a wonderful show💛🙋🏽♀️👍🏽
Thank you to you all l will enjoy what we have but will miss you all😢xx😊
Absolutely loved the show. I can't wait for the book to come out. Would be amazing to see what happens to the characters after the end of the last series with Allison's story and the rest of the ghosts in the house. Such a talented bunch of people
I need that playlist soo much... 27:55 Can't live without it actually...Jim has spot on suggestions and I need to know what songs the others get from him😀
It always blows my mind when I hear actors I've watched for so long finally talk like themselves.
this show was such an mportant part of my life for years now.I'm gonna miss them tremendously. But I'm already looking forward to whatever the six idiots will decide to do next
Such a wonderful series. I hope these comedy geniuses keep on making more shows!
I was here and I still can’t get over how incredible it was.
Thank you
Amazing show - watched all seasons numerous times - simply the best ❤
I'm truly going to miss this show. They have brought so much joy to British homes. I hope they do more projects together in the near future!
The toilets are bloody amazing, though - I did have to take a picture of the floor in there, as well as everything else of course!
8:17 Lolly's lil wave 😂😂.
Hubby was watching this show for awhile. seen and heard him giggl8ng. Until recently just 3 nights ago when he started playing the catch up and played from the beginning. Got hooked and now binge watching… love the show.
I think Larry has hinted that there are ideas floating around. Perhaps like the Pythons a few more films are in the offering.
My husband and I looovvve Ghosts! Here in South Africa we are going to have to wait for the last series- hopefully not too long!
Having binge watched Series 5 (twice through), if the collective and very joyful sequence Mat mentions is the one I think he means, that joy was utterly captured and conveyed itself on screen..just wonderful.
I don't know how, but I only heard about Ghosts a week ago. I'm now caught up on all seasons and I'm craving more!
I really hoped there would be a Xmas special with the baby. Kitty’s excitement at being a godmother!!
Can't wait for the xmas special, I'm going to rewatch this sm times
I miss them so much 😭
Love these guys soooo much! Will miss them desperately. I'm just holding out for specials or something to keep the characters alive ... no pun intended. Lolol
been a kid in the early 00 i grew up on horrible history im surprised i only found this show last week i binged the entire show in that time it was so fun i fell in love with all the characters
I'm so sad to learn the UK series will end after the fifth season. But Ghosts (UK) is one of my favorite series ever, and I'm grateful for it.
Very underestimated show.....I have thoroughly enjoyed every episode. Will really miss it.
❤❤❤ just finished season 5 and loved it❤❤❤
these guys are the new pythons for me, thought that when they used to do horrible histories Hope they work together again soon
This show will be regarded as another GREAT GREAT COMEDY. R I P
i loved season 5! my favourite series! :)
I love this cast and this series sm ❤
Just binged the whole series. Lots of laugh out loud moments and incredible acting. Roll on the Christmas special...I'm sure it will be emotional 😢
I have done exactly the same thing…. Very clever and great entertainment
Final series? Aww I really loved this series and its actors.
Jim Hawick is still doing the neck thing! A worthy memento ❤️
Love 'em.
It’s great when a TV series goes out leaving you wanting more. Like Friday Night Dinner, the series 6 finale was the perfect ending as the Goodmans moved into a new chapter of their lives. Tempered by sad death of Paul Ritter. I only hope the ending of Ghosts however they’ve written it, is one the characters deserve.
one of the best comedies ever! I hope they work together again on another masterpiece
I'm gonna miss them forever 😭💔
omg, Simon is actually there! LOLColor me shocked!!!
Now I must watch the final series - 2 at a time, to make it last
Such great fun, I am up to date now thanks to bbc iplayer. I shed a few tears with some of the storylines and I really respect that they are ending on a high. Besides, I will always have loads more of the American version to watch to fill my Ghosts shaped hole.
The American Ghosts is good but I'm highly biased towards these guys 😊
I’m the same. I love the US but I much prefer ours.
I’m the same. I love the US but I much prefer ours.
Thank you all so much l love you all 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Buy the book, it's brilliant!!😊
4:51 Mat losing his mind next to Martha is so funny
Watched a few of these Q&As now, and wondering if it's ever occurred to the BFI to invest in some lapel mics? Levels are all over the place!
When will we be able to get Series 4 & 5 in the US?? I love this show!
Best programme ever
Gutted this show ended I loved it
Ghosts was one a few shows our whole family watched together.. sad to see it go!!
Awwww I didn’t know it’s over thats terrible I looked forward to every episode
I love this show
Brilliant 😅😅😅
"Imagine that's how I found out" lol
I vote for a Ghosts stage show as a final hurrah!!
This was such a good night!! So grateful for this incredible cast ❤
I was today years old when I learned that the caveman and the severed head are the same guy.
larry is just that talented!
I was so shocked when I realised!
Really!!!
Wow!
I had no idea!
I was wondering why nobody had mentioned the caveman.... it's difficult to choose, but he was kind of my favourite, especially towards the last few episodes 😅
Wait what
I love them so much, so funny. I love Horrible histories and learned a lot from that than when I did at school. Yonderland was good too. but this is the best! They should have had Yvette Fielding as she was in Most haunted and would have been funny.
"Dip it again!"...."Alison, Alison!"...."We're better together! .... "Damn your eyes!" .... Absolutely loved the whole series of Ghosts....and the America version. Best thing on TV
I miss it already
Oh no!!! I am gutted, I did not know this was the last series 😭 Does anybody knows when the book will be available? Series 5 was amazing I could not help it and watched all the episodes.
October 26! But available for preorder atm
Wish i was here 😢
29:13 !!! my question
I read a few years ago that Simon was adapting Enid Blyton’s The Enchanted Wood/The faraway tree for TV/film but can’t find any further information about it. Does anyone have any more facts about this as I’ve always wondered why nobody had put this on screen, but Simon and all the others are ideal for writing and starring in it- I even have them all cast in the roles which I think would be perfect. PLEASE- when is this happening and don’t say it’s been shelved, as I would like to see my childhood put on the screen before I kick the bucket!
Loved the series, but why did Alison have to leave Button House? As she can see ghosts, wherever she went ghosts would be interfering in her life. And also, if the ghosts could be seen on the baby monitor, why didn't Mike rush to view it so he could finally see the ghosts? Hey, it's not real life!
