Gorilla War

BBC One - Ghosts, Series 1, Gorilla War

The ghostly visions return to haunt Alison, but Mike insists on a rational explanation.

When the ghostly visions return to haunt Alison, Mike must reassure her that there is a rational, medical explanation – a comforting theory about which he could not be more wrong.

Alison – still recovering from her near-fatal accident – finds herself hounded by the ghostly gaggle, who now realise that she can both see and hear them. With Mike assuring her that these visions are exactly the sort of side effect her doctors warned her about, Alison tries to ignore their existence – a tactic which only exacerbates the problem, as the long-dead army captain puts the ghosts onto a war footing. 

Meanwhile, Mike’s attempts to turn the old house into a home leads to a DIY disaster, saddling Lady Button with an ill-suited roommate. And the ghosts are introduced to the internet, allowing Julian to learn about his questionable legacy.
