Motley Hall, ancestral home of the Uproar family, is a wonderful, old Elizabethan building. To the casual observer it is unoccupied, but it actually is home to five ghosts, each from a different era in the house’s history. All is not cosy amongst the ghosts, however, and they are compelled to get along with each other as best as they can – something which becomes increasingly more difficult as they try to keep the twentieth century from their doorstep! Presented here is the entire series of 19 episodes (three series and a Christmas Special).
This lovely, popular and fondly-remembered series was created by award-winning writer Richard Carpenter (Catweazle, The Adventures of Black Beauty, Robin of Sherwood) and stars popular character actors Peter Sallis (Last of the Summer Wine), Freddie Jones and Sheila Steafel. It will appeal to people who bought Robin of Sherwood and Catweazle, classic television fans and seventies nostalgists.
