OK. I thought it was Victorian, but it's Edwardian.

In the book, it's more modern.

How much do you bet that Diana Dors turns up as the cheery village lady who makes everything make sense?
"You're not sulking, I hope?"

I'm also eating dinner, and I'm not good at doing three things at once! But it is very enjoyable!

You can separate your mind from normal time with magic mushrooms, actually. Don't need all the other ingredients.

This is not sensible - Mrs Wickens will travel through time with them, and they'll never get away from her.

An excellent point. And what's the Minister for Administrative Affairs doing in a pulpit?

That's Paul Eddington as the vicar. But if you are a vicar you should never say 'Shall we sing' because someone will say 'No!'

That baby is unnaturally well behaved. Maybe he has had some drugs too.

In the book, they reason that being a grown up, mrs W won't be affected in the same way.

Locked doors, fire...one can see how it might all go wong.

Well, apart from the fact that there's only me posting (I understand - you're both gripped by the drama of it all) I think this is so much more of a story than last week's effort (despite Hordern). Reminds me of...what was it now...MOONDIAL!!!

If they're ghosts, how can they feel things?

Why should ghosts not have feelings?

Har har, Angry You know full well that I meant how could they affect material things by touch when they themselves are immaterial?
