Christmas causes chaos in Ghosts

- CAREN CLARK, ELAINE REILLY

As warm-hearted BBC1 comedy Ghosts returns for a Christmas special, The Ghost of Christmas, the phantom inhabitants of haunted Button House are gearing up for the big day.

Meanwhile, the mansion’s owners – Alison (Charlotte Ritchie) and Mike (Kiell Smith-Bynoe) – are feeling the need to lay on a perfect Christmas for Mike’s family, who are coming to stay.
