Rentaghost

Oakster

As it's halloween (big news over here) - I thought I'd dredge this old TV programme up.

I used to love it - can even remember the lyrics & them tune

If your mansion house needs haunting just call, Rentaghost,
We've got spooks and ghouls and freaks and fools, at Rentaghost,
Hear the Phantom of the Opera, sing a haunting melody,
Remember what you see is not a mystery but ..... Rentaghost!


Anyone remember it?

WSS

no but i remember TRAPDOOR! Is there something down there?

Carter

Stay away from that trapdoor

Glass half empty

I remember it matey,
How come Miss Pop-off doesn't sneeze now she is in Coronation Street ?

Ketman

Mr Claypole, Miss Popoff, 'Don't go into the cellar!' great TV they don't make it like that anymore.

Timothy Claypole died of Aids a few years after the final show.

Most of the original Rentaghost cast have since popped off.
Trapdoor quality :)

That's why it was brilliant.

Didn't Fred Mumford die when he fell off a cross channel ferry and no one noticed?

And what was that horse all about?

Were the writers on something perhaps?
