My thoughts exactly.

Favourite moments included the device for communicating with ghosts 
which sounded like Sparky's Magic Piano.  

And the "seance" run by the woman in Dundee where a participant was 
convinced that she heard the voice of her dad father wheezing a couple 
of words from another dimension.  "He had a chronic breathing condition
when he died", she said.  Reassuring to think that he's going to have 
it for all eternity.
