Has anyone caught this little antipodean gem yet ? It's on a cable channel at 21:00 hrs in the week and it must be said it sneaks up behind Most Haunted, smacks it smartly across the head, kicks it in the nuts and nicks its credibility leaving it writhe in a puddle of its own mediocrity.

It's set in New Zealand and the format is as follows.

Team of 3 visit a haunted area during the day. Set up remote cameras, thermal and electromagnetic sensors and in one case a sound recorder. Durning the night 2 of the team (wearing head cams and mikes for our benefit) individually go back to the areas they visited during the day and try and 1. Make some sort of contact. 2. Take as many photos with a flash camera of the area as they can. They then return to the 3rd team member who controls the action by monitoring the sensors and they run their photos through a PC to enhance contrast and gamma of anything that appears interesting.

I've seen 4 episodes and am hooked. I'll even admit I won't watch it when She Who Must Be Obeyed is working nights. They put out a disclaimer stating that they will always tell you what enhancements are being made to a snap and the results can be really disturbing to see.

No groups of 10 blokes sitting around in a cellar telling each other they feel ill. No "cough" We've now been on air 10 mins, time for Derek to start frothing. The investigators are sent out seperately and asked to go to different areas. The sight of the poor girl last week trying to gather enough courage to go into a room she felt 'really bad' about was only topped by the guys face as he realised the only way to get out of a house was to pass a stairway that was creaking quietly.

Refreshingly Knicker Wetting Stuff and well worth a look if you fancy a quick refreshing bout of insomnia.

(No I don't know who goes back for the remote equipment. I wouldn't, even for a big clock)

I will look out for this, thanks Ogre

I have totally stopped watching Most taunted now as it just grates on me

This is embarrasing. Since I reported this prog it's not been on.

I wrote to Zone Reality last night so hopefully I'll have some scheduling info for you soon.

Ogre

Ah, hope this helps.

Dear Ogre,

Thank you for your e-mail. We are delighted that you are enjoying the
channel.

The entire series of 'Ghost Hunt' will next be shown on Zone Reality on
23rd December from 13:00 as part of Spooky Saturday.

Kind regards,
Zone Reality

Might be a bit of an overkill putting them back to back, but there we go.

Ogre

Ooooo!!

sometimes that means that there will be a new series of it coming soon.......or it might mean they are not making any more!

will add that to the calender

I have been watching this recently and love it!!

especailly when the lass is so scared she forgets to take the photos! and then the boss tells her off
