So if they are free, where are they? Or perhaps I should say, when are they?

Properly dead, I should think.

Well Tom's sister had died hadn't she?

They've had pretty good weather for the end of October!

And still a lot of leaves on the trees.

So was that statue always there, or did Minty turn her to stone?

Has she? I missed that.

I was thinking I will have to keep an eye out for it, next time I watch Moondial.

Wasn't Tom crying over it? It was very brief.

If you watch the reviews etc that I posted at the beginning, you'll see that Jacs felt there shold have been a more overt connection between Miss Raven and Miss Vole. I think she's probably right. (But then I would say that). I think she did try to make one, but there wasn't much space/time for her to do it.

That was good, but I actually feel that it could have done with being a little longer - to make the connection between Miss Raven and Miss Vole, for example, or to give us a bit more information about Sarah.

Yes, it was a slightly underdone bit of the story. But a child's imagination fills the gaps.

I am SO glad I found somewhere to stream this!!

That's BBC budgets for you, I expect.

Loved the 'ghost-hunting' outfit! I just happen to have a cloak myself...a friend gave it to me - still don't know why - but it's red (velvet - gorgeous!), not black, and while I don't believe in ghosts it has come in useful a couple of times as part of a stage costume.

Do we know of any other spooky children's stories to watch? Or shall we try something quite different?

I'd like a change, really. There was some support for watching The Champions, or there's always Red Dwarf!

Is The Champions available to stream? We could cherry pick some eps.

Yes, it's on youtube. At least, I've found ep 1. Also on ITVX apparently.

I think I found a link somewhere, or I wouldn't have suggested it. Probably. I'll need to check!

Is that OK with both of you? Or do you have a better idea?
If we do The Champions, personally, I'd rather watch the first few eps in sequence to get into it, rather than pick some at random.

The Champions sounds good! Also not a serial, which is good, as I won't be able to make next week. See you the week after!

Well, you can always have a solo catch-up rewatch! OK, I'll start the thread. And see if I'm allowed to add it to the News page.

I'd go along with that but if we don't watch all the series I have a favourite we shouldn't miss.

Glad that's settled. Moondial was fun! But now I can go back to watching the World Jigsaw Puzzle Championships 2024. Riveting stuff! Good night both, and thanks for the company.

The 1st episode is rather brilliant....
The Champions, that is. Not jigsaw watching...

Well howdy doody CB. Come out of hibernation? Unlike most British hibernatory wildlife....

It's taken me this long to get over Seek-Locate-Hibernate.

How's the Walks?

Going very well indeed, thanks. We did our 'Not Quite the Equinox' - or 'Equinot' - edition at Avebury last Friday. Fabulous weather. Five and a half hours. (Will PM you a shot.) A couple of roams round Stonehenge next month.

Just wanted to say I've got everybody at work and their siblings watching Moondial. It's gone down very well in the north midlands...

You sound like someone who needs to ready their wellies and hit the turnpike.
