25 years ago this was broadcast, who remembers it? It was billed as a spoof but lots of people and I mean lots were duped into thinking it was real.
I remember watching it, thought it was brilliantly done at the time.
Did you watch it, did you think it was real? |

I remember all the hype in the press and was annoyed I missed it because, if I recall correctly, it was never repeated. Now this thread's reminded me, I'll have to look it up on YouTube - in broad daylight of course! |

I recently borrowed it off a mate who has it on dvd. |

It properly gave me the heebie jeebies! I was probably far too young to be watching it, and I assumed it was a real show, it was so perfectly staged. It was EXACTLY like all the live studio/field programmes with David Frost and Uri Geller and a phone-in that were all the rage at the time. |

"Remember watching it I was at school at the time. Sarah Greene the presenter and the Ghost was called pipes, lol. "
That's right, pipes! And the wee girl had drawn loads of pictures of it. I was about 11 or 12 when I watched it and thought it was 100% real at the time |

I still remember it now. I was only about 10 and allowed to stay up for it. My dear mum thought it hilarious to tell me it was real, so I genuinely believed that until recently!
Pipes!
Very cleverly done, I really want to see it again x |

I've heard of it but never watched it as I was only 3 at the time.
However, googling it it sounds like Derren Brown's Séance. That was supposedly a real time séance, and when I watched it I was so freaked out I ran into my mum's bedroom. I must have been 13/14 at the time.  |

I remember watching this as a kid. I seem to remember actually being pretty scared by it as well, though I think I cottoned on fairly quickly that it was just a wind up. It seems ridiculous now but there just wasn't shows like this at the time. I remember everyone at school talking about it the next day. |

Remember the acting was extremely bad, the content was unsettling. When you realised it was bs, it’s a lot of fun. You can tell I’m bored responding to a forum over a year old. |
