The dialogue all sounds very improbable just now. The aunt slaps her, but doesn't apologize, and all the talk about her mother's accident just sounds very far-fetched. It's childrens' TV. People don't have proper breakdowns etc. all very simplistic. "You're not sulking, I hope?"

You're on top meanie firm tonight.  That's what you get for calling me 'nibs'. It was filmed on location at Belton House, Cambridgeshire. Nibs is a term of endearment!

Like they're getting it out of the way to cut to the main story. Yes. It just seems so improbable that she would be interested in ghosts when her mother might be dying. |

Well when you put it like that, I think kids would do almost anything not to think about mum being seriously ill. Silflay hraka, u embleer rah!

I liked her encounter with the servant boy, especially each thinking the other a ghost. |

I looked up Belton Hoouse. It's actually in Lincolnshire. Should have known not to believe anything on Google. It's National Trust, so you can viait it.

But where's Servalan? Be patient, my child. Not just yet. Have to get the annoying ghost people sorted out first. "You're not sulking, I hope?"

Why is that 'sundial' so high up? Presumably to catch the light? "You're not sulking, I hope?"

Isn't it interesting how so little has changed at the house since Victorian times? Even the trees are exactly the same height...

Sorry, It's me. When she 1st went to the dial she must have been standing on the lower step. It looked like it was towering over minty. Silflay hraka, u embleer rah!

And doing its best to be omnipresent. So, how are you liking it so far? (So good to hear Her voice again, even if only momentarily). Enough ghosty bits for you? "You're not sulking, I hope?"

And buddleia first brought to this country in the eighteenth century - so it could be modern buddleia, or Victorian, we don't know. |
