Had a gander at the BBC Christmas line-up with a particular view to how Auntie will be attempting to put the willies up us this festive season.
It’s churlish of me to note that’s there’s another M. R. James adaptation with anything other than gladness that the BBC continues to put money into ghosty drama, I just wish these adaptations weren’t the exclusive franchise of Mark Gatiss. His passion for horror in general and James in particular is clearly huge but maybe that’s the problem. The whiff of desperation.
But I’m much more optimistic that his fellow League alumni will actually be capturing the chilly spirit (SPIRIT!) of A Ghost Story for Christmas with a spooky special of Inside No. 9.
