I found this a bit daft but still quite entertaining. It's maybe a programme that could improve with time... maybe. I think some writers lose the plot in the fact that, even fantasy fun dramas still have to have a touch of reality about them, especially when it comes to peoples reactions to certain situations. For instance, there's a part where Erin finds the old woman, Olive in the only bed there (apparently). They scream at each other in fright and then Erin goes down to spend the night on a grotty old sofa. Finding it hard to sleep she then goes back to the even grottier bed and climbs in with the old woman. That's a definite no-no. That just wouldn't happen. For a start you wouldn't sleep next to someone you didn't know, if you didn't have to and secondly, there's no way you'd touch that bed. No way. Disgusting. So although this drama was quite entertaining, it lacked reality. It was almost like a child had written it, someone who had no experience of the real world and how people actually act. Peculiar. They should get Bruce Robinson from Withnail & I to show them a thing or two - now that's how people would really react!
