House Detectives
6.50pm BBC2 Doreen Pelletier is not worried about fairies at the bottom of her garden, but about ghosts beneath her house. She tried bringing in builders to excavate the underground room that lies beneath her home, Monks Cottages in Saxmundham, Suffolk, but they fled down the street cursing and saying the place was haunted. Our house detectives are made of sterner stuff and it only takes a few minutes before Juliet Morris is rooting around the tiny cellar, while Judith Miller is poking around the local records office. The main aim is to discover whether the house had a religious connection, but when the team reveal their findings Doreen can barely control her excitement.
