I'm glad you've heard her traceyg, I know she's said it. It stuck in my mind because it didn't make sense (mind you when does she?) I think you're right crashcat but how stupid is that? She must think that no one remembers what she says. Yvette really thinks she's the queen of all things paranormal. Of course the title lacks common sense, a scientific approach and allows you to perform down right fakery. Oops the stomach's regurgitating here, oh what the heck! She's an arse wipe pure and simple. PS crashcat well done with the lone vigil, I don't know which one scares me the most the dentist or the dark. ;D

I havent watched mh or mhl in forever but I am going to watch it this time just to laugh at it and to think I once believed the BS this show fed me. God I was such a muppet.

I think the reason this crap is still on LIVING is because they have a contract. Soon as that ends, its on to the Paranormal Channel (if its still going). As for the US, they have already done a MH Live for the Americans. Remember the one from Tower Bridge. The only reason they did that was because the Yanks would recognise a famous London landmark. There was never any previous knowledge of paranormal activity there until Most Haunted showed up. If anyone can be bothered. When they do the US Most Haunteds, just watch how the team are. They act completely differently from when they are in Britain. I noticed this before when they went to USA. Not as much swearing, more whooping and cheering. They play for their audience.

supposedly continuous over the 3 nights and 3 days, although half of that will be recaps and ads, and of course the ads will still start just as someone screams lol so will be no changes there.

Traceyg, judging by recent programming on TPC, it'll take until 2030 before you even get to see the first series of Most Haunted.

From the Living TV website
Most Haunted: Live - Total Darkness On air, online and on their own...The Most Haunted Live team go underground - for THREE DAYS! From Friday 29th – Sunday 31st August, 8pm-1am. Online: 24 hours!
Smash hit paranormal extravaganza Most Haunted: Live returns to help celebrate LIVING's 15th anniversary with an epic investigation into the spookiest spots in London.
From terrifying tunnels to petrifying plague pits, the intrepid team will spend three nights looking for ghosts beneath the city's streets, surfacing only to reach the next location. Expect to be transfixed by this thrilling-but-chilling look at the capital - and since you won't want to miss a moment of the non-stop fright-fest, we'll feature unprecedented 24-hour live online coverage.
While london sleeps, Most Haunted's fearless investigators will descend to the underworld to seek out the supernatural. From the main studio at Alexandra Palace, their journey takes them first to the London Tombs, where recent excavation work led to a macabre discovery. Hundreds of human bones were unearthed by workmen, giving rise to reports of hideous visions and blood-curdling cries. Some workers refused to return – will the Most Haunted team feel the same way?
More high drama is expected at the next stop, Aldwych tube station. Built on the site of an old theatre, the spirits of cursed actors who met a terrible end now roam the disused tunnels alongside the sinister presence of an Ancient Egyptian escaped from the British Museum.
Saving the best – or worst – until last, the team will spend the third night in the Whitehall war bunker, located directly beneath the site where Charles I lost his head in 1649. Will they meet the headless ghost of this infamous monarch?
Don't miss a second.
Most Haunted: Live - Total Darkness. From Friday 29th – Sunday 31st August, 8pm-1am. Online: 24 hours!

I wanted MH to end years ago.. can not believe there's more!! Dont they go on viewing figures? So the more skeptics tune in to laugh, means their viewing count goes up. Cant watch the damn thing personally, Id rather spring my whole street in the buff.. I've been talking about the viewing figures today. It's a bit of a catch 22 really. I hate been classed as a viewer (that really does leave me with a nasty taste in my mouth). But if I don't watch it how will I see all the mistakes and embarassing moments. If I'd got the money I'd bet anyone that during one of the three nights Julian Clegg will say something about them receiving a record number of hits, messages or feedback. It's cringe worthy stuff because it's almost guaranteed it will be said. Of course we'll never know how much of the feedback, etc, will be negative. They'll use all of it to get ratings.

Yes! and what gets me is all these people claiming to have seen ghosts on the webcams. The messages or texts coming through on the tv screen is bloody stupid, people seeing children crying, faces appearing, someone seeing an old lady in victorian clothes! dogs shi**ing in the corner ect ect, oh come on you can't see a bloody thing all I can think of is either someone's been on the sherry too much or their completely deluded. I shamefully admit in the past I have looked on the webcams for quite some time and guess what? I saw absolutely nothing! cause there is nothing to see, simple as that! I suppose really that's what made me very suspicious of the MHL in the early days.

What bloody point are those webcams? They say they have tens of thousands of sightings on them but they never once show any clips of these. It's stupid! All the phonecalls they get and text messages... no wonder they're still going - they must be earning a fortune!
MH is entertaining. What really grips me though is how they're billed as 'professional paranormal investigators'.

I totally agree O.M.S. Huh I've just been looking for anything new on Fielding and the MH charade. Apparently now she's a black belt in karate along with her husband (strange that I though he was a Samurai). Oh yes and she's bringing out another book out along with Ciaran. It makes you sick! Ciaran's gone down in my estimation big time, he was the only sane hope left in that farce. He's becoming one of them quick and fast.

I cannot believe someone like Ciaran who has obviously had a good education has qualifications is still working with the MH team. How can anybody take him seriously in his profession and respect him anymore, surely your reputation is most important. All I can say is Yvette must be paying him lots of dosh!!!

Hi Fluffet, it's not on till Friday the 29th-31st. Tell you what at the risk of putting other members to sleep I'll quite happily fill you in (my rubber jaw never stops ). I hate it though because I'll be classed as a viewer but all in the name of...... and just for a laugh as well! ;D

I can probably tell you what'll happen now (after all, I am the master of prediction ). A few pebbles will be thrown. There will be some knocking that seemingly answer their questions. A Ouija session will create a lot of screaming. Someone will see a 'dark shadow' just off camera. Karl and Stuart will go off somewhere and see something incredible... but not capture it on camera. The 'psychic art' will have a drawing of an evil looking man sporting a beard. Someone will waste their money sending in a text telling the group to be careful. Another text will tell them that 'Charles' is looking for them. Yvette will ask Ciaran if something small and insigificant has 'converted him to a believer'. Cath will scream and want to leave. Karl will feel faint, tired, dizzy and angry. So will Stuart. Stuart will get possessed and attack someone. Brian Shepherd will insult the crew in some form. A trigger object will be moved - the only trigger object not to have a camera on it. A dangerous implement like a knife will be thrown. Yvette will cry and threaten to poo her pants. Can't think of any more off hand. Could use these actually for MHL bingo.

We're going to be away all weekend but we're going to Sky+ it and watch it when we get back. There's not enough decent comedy on these days and we don't want to miss out.

If they actually DO do what they claim and stay underground the whole time, only coming out when changing locations, the most interesting thing will be seeing how they cope with the lack of daylight.
