Rebecca Front (The Thick of It, Nighty Night, The Day Today, Just William, Grandma's House) stars in this series about five extraordinary and unforgettable characters in Incredible Women.

In each programme less-than-intrepid interviewer Jeremy spends one night in the home of each of his interviewees. On their territory, he asks about their personal histories, plus we discover some very odd things about the way they live their daily lives.

In the first episode, Jeremy meets medium Nicky Markham who sells out huge theatres with her shows in which she claims to speak to your loved ones who have passed to the other side.

Jeremy admires her as an entertainer but she won't budge on his questioning of how she does it. But the sceptical Jeremy experiences something he can't explain when he stays at her house overnight.

Featuring Rebecca Front, Jeremy Front, Richard Wiseman, Tilly Clymer and Gerard McDermott.
