I'm not familiar with the show.   If it's more of a reality show, we don't need episode guides.

It's just 3 guys who talk about Cars all the time, yes there are funny moments but not really enough for it to be put as a comedy show but that's just my opinion from watching it for the past 7 years.

Don't worry about the guides.  If it's a reality show, we don't need them.  We'll add it to the list of shows in the wrong genre.

I have posted about for Top Gear in reality but the general discussion is in comedy

waterlilybarb

I added a link in the discussion thread to the About, and in the About to the discussion thread.  I think we should start doing that anyway, since we don't have forums for the new shows.  It will make the discussion threads easier to find for those who start watching the show after the main discussion has been done.

The Secret of Crickley Hall Premiered on BBC One on November 18, 2012

About the Show:
Based on the novel by best-selling British scribe James Herbert, the thriller begins a year after the disappearance of Cam, the son of Gabe Caliegh (Tom Ellis, “The Fades”) and Eve Caleigh (Suranne Jones, “Doctor Who”). As the couple and their two daughters attempt to start anew, they head to Crickley Hall – a seemingly perfect countryside house. But when cellar doors start to open on their own, phantom children’s cries are heard through the night and a frenzied cane-wielding specter rears its head – the Caleigh’s realize the house comes with a lot more than they bargained for. Just as they’re ready to move out, Eve Caleigh hears Cam’s cries and all bets are off.

Shifting between 1943 and present day, the Caleigh’s are desperate to find the source of the crying and the connection the haunted house has to their son. Will they find him before the evil that stalks Crickley Hall finds their other children? Written and directed by Joe Ahearne (“Doctor Who”), this classic haunted house spine chiller is full of scares, yet underpinned by the heartbreaking story of a family needing to heal and ghosts who need to be laid to rest.

Cast:

Actor’s name	Character’s name
Suranne Jones	Eve Caleigh
Tom Ellis	Gabe Caliegh
Douglas Henshall	Augustus Cribben
David Warner	Percy Judd
Sarah Smart	Magda Cribben
Iain De Caestecker	Young Percy

However, Jason’s distraught mother attacks him and then collapses and dies. Now in the eye of the press and the public, Tony has blood on his hands.
