Still no ghosts.

How can a series run for so long and have so many fans when the whole premise on which it's based is never once proven?I think it discredits the possibility of the supernatural and after watching the intro to tonights show(girlfriend loves it)it's like some parody of a US ghoulie ghost show.

Every night last month i watched it, to see if i could see anything. Considering they have been to the most "Haunted" places there are in britian, I've seen NOTHING supernatural. Everything that they see is explainable including those stupid orbs!

Don't watch it anymore, i did like it because of old Derek lol , if it wasn't for that show he'd be put in a loony bin ages ogo.

I feel anoyed after i watch an episode becuae they get them selfs so worked up the slightest thing makes then go mad, and really its nothing!

I dunno why my Gf loves it so much!

Try explaining Yvette Fielding !

Perhaps thats the point, we will find out shes been dead for the last 10 years, or is that just her career ?

That programme slays me

Derek Acorah, complete poser and charlatan.
Yvette Fielding, not even very good on Blue Peter!

Has anyone else noticed that they always "see" things when the camera is looking somewhere else. If it's looking, they "hear" or "smell" things, we can't

The whole show is a waste of airtime.

My grandad was a shy man, and on his death bed he swore that, as a ghost, he would return to his house and hide from the people living there.

And to this day, his ghost has NEVER been seen.

The best one was when he was communicating with somebody from the otherside. He was "playing" the part as a woman. Sadly he researchers goofed as the dead person had been a man class!!

Fair play? For getting away with conning people and preying on people that are mourning the departed loved ones?

String the fekker up if you ask me

have you seen the price of coffins and 6ft deep plots, these days??
if people do find solace in contacting their departed ones, then thats their lookout.
everything has a price these days, and holding hands round a candlelit table with a medium is no different.

its a sad fact, but some people have things they wanted to say, and never got a chance.
if in some way they are happy to "seem" to bury hatchets, or tell someone on the other side they love them, then i think its a small price to pay.

there are worse things like giving your credit card details to a nigerian scammer, or selling acres of the moon!!! lol.

happy christmas to everyone passed over.
- should score some brownie points after what i said to the JW's last weelend!!!

My Mrs has made me endure hours of this cack .... when it first started it was quite believeable but now its all jazzed up like some american chat show or something
I must have sat through 100 hours of DA belting out unbelieveable rubbish and those dam orbs, what is it with them things that they find so fascinating I might get the video camera out in night mode when my mrs is dusting and see what they make of all those orbs

Yep, Yvette Fielding on Blue Peter, she had some sort of skin complaint, we called her "that blotchy bitch"

If you watched most haunted tonight in the UK, you will have noticed that Derek got possessed by Kreed Kafer.

Basically someone "suggested" that name to derek and low and behold he did his possession and claimed it was him.

only one problem
Kreed Kafer is an anagram of Derek Faker

As Alcazar pointed out one of the funniest things about that program is all the cameras are pointing at the researchers and never anywhere else in the rooms until someone sees or hear something. It would be pretty straightforward for them all to wear some headcams so we can see exactly what they do. You obviously want as much cameras around as possible to catch anything supposedly supernatural as well as their reactions.

Personally, I think it's a programme based purely on seeing people getting scared in dark rooms; especially that dizzy bint Fielding.

I guess the executive producer (or something like that) wants to make the show as appealing as possible to get the show re-commissioned & watched by more & more people.
Yvette Fielding as the "star" also needs to ensure this happens somehow....

What a co-incidence that she IS the exec producer......mmmmmm.....
