Episode 2: Something Old

BBC Four - Crooked House, Something Old

In the 1920s, a costume ball and an engagement party lead back to a tragic wedding day.

Ghost stories about a haunted manor house. In the 1920s, Lady Constance de Momery presides over a costume ball for her grandson, but all is not as it seems.

When schoolteacher Ben unearths an old door knocker in the garden of his new home, the curator suggests it may come from the now-demolished house, reputed to be haunted. Ben prompts the curator to tell him stories about the house's past. 

In the 1920s, Lady Constance de Momery presides over a costume ball for her grandson, but all is not as it seems and when young heir to the estate Felix de Momery announces his engagement to sweetheart Ruth, his friends Billy and Katherine seem far from pleased.

Is the happy couple's destiny inextricably linked with another tragic wedding day many years ago and does the sight of a ghostly bride in a grave-stained wedding dress explain why there has not been a wedding at Geap Manor since then?

BBC Four reflects arts, music and culture with an ambitious range of intellectually and culturally enriching programmes, taking an expert and in-depth approach to its subjects.

Three-part ghost story based around the goings-on in a haunted manor house.
