The penultimate entry in the 'Ghost Story for Christmas' BBC series is about, of all things...a bewitched pair of binoculars! A museum curator uses these binoculars to see scenes from the past. Its quite a good idea, although these newer digital instalments, with their sharper image, do lack the fuzziness of the older shot-on-film entries and have a slightly more sterilized feel, while they also seem to be operating on a tighter budget. Still, the basic idea of the piece is distinctive enough.

An okay return of the 'Ghost Story for Christmas' series but this isn't especially good really
