The Czech capital, Prague, is known as a popular tourist destination and the city of 1,000 spires, but behind the stunning architecture and charming winding streets lies a gruesome history of witchcraft and blood-soaked tyranny. This March, Yvette Fielding and her ghost-hunting team travel to macabre Prague for their darkest investigation yet : Most Haunted Live: Gothic Prague Evil Within.
Legend says that Prague was once besieged by flocks of witches, forcing the city's terrified residents to light huge bonfires to drive away the evil invaders. In modern times, this ancient ritual is marked each year in April on witches night.
The city is also the site of several ancient castles, which are renowned not only for their architecture but also for their grisly past. The gothic splendour of Karlstejn, for instance, was home to the infamous Katerina Bechynova in the 16th century. Katerina supposedly murdered fourteen innocent people. Will the Most Haunted team come face to face with her and the rest of the tortured souls who wander the streets of this ancient city?

Holy Moonpig ad's .....WHO the bejeez was that and where did they literally dig him up from ?!? The shaman/medium bloke looked not unlike a Czech version of Fred Batt who had been locked in a dungeon for 5 years till his hair grew and his infamous polo neck got a little crumpled causing him to flail his arms around wildly in an attempt to brush it off ! The interpretor looked more than slightly uneasy as she related back his answers to an increasingly animated Yvette who seemed to be finding his arm waving and Psychic Tai Chi infectious.

Wahhhaaa "How many of you are here" says Yvette and amazingly 27 taps are heard....that would of course be the 27 executed noblemen ...sigh. Anyone else finding the sweet bliss of Howe being struck dumb entirely hysterically brilliant ? Instead of ear piercing screams it's like listening to Most Haunted version of Mutley .

Maybe a the makeup dept created a Czech Medium out of Fred Missjo? Budget and all that hehe Does anyone remember a sort of boxed game thing from the late 70's early 80's that a picture on the front of a woman standing behind a bloke in a chair complete with black polo neck and face hair that looked uncannily like Fred Batt ? Will need to google it and see if my memory is correct

Let me first say I entirely agree with all the comments that have gone before this one. Now I am quite worried with all the main participants of this ghastly, sorry ghostly show. Boy are they piling the pounds on and I do not mean £s,as in money. They are not obviously paid enough so as to go out and buy clothing that actually fits, When is old ROSSY going out to buy a new jacket and a pair of new shoes.Poor old JULIAN needs a shirt at least two sizes larger, one that does not pull on the buttons,which I was convinced were going to pop at any time. Will not mention THE HISTORIAN. Fred Batt always looks to me as if hes just been dug up to give him an airing. As for the melodramatic over the top medium, well its his time for fame, can not really blame him for making the most of it. Could be his last chance, in all probs hes been doing this for years,and he is now thinking fame at last, bring it on.

What does the team honestly think there gonna get out of this show?
Oh yes they get paid good money of course, nothing else, this show is becoming so tiring and worn out like an old pair of shoes, there is nothing left only screaming, tapping noises, ouija boards and stone throwing. I couldn't bring myself to watch it last night for various reasons and also i'm not interested in watching advert after advert, we need to get a petition up to stop this pathetic show, let's kill it stone dead....

I do think after this attempt Traceyg, that it will self destruct. Flitting through the channels last night in an attempt to get away from M H, I counted 4 I think it was 4 channels all showing this pathetic hogwash an hour or so behind each other. They are really cramming down our throats now.

Theres nothing like flogging it to death is there barb?
I still can't fathom as to why it is so popular or is that it's actually rammed down our throats because once MHL is finished they will probably bring out another series and then we have the tour this year. When this show first started it was a success, many people believed in it because then it did come across as more serious, even though Derek was funny at the time, but with having more internet access reaching peoples homes and of course U Tube and websites full of people picking out errors and trickery and going through mediums on the show like a dose of salts and then Karl and Yvette having their own show like Katie Price it's just a bloody joke.
MH always focus on the negative with their shows, if it's not got evil in it then it isn't a show, Derek was bad for that he used to thrive on being possessed by Evil spirits, well i just cannot watch this farce anymore and haven't done for some years now.

He looks like Noel Edmonds! I used to love that game. Haven't got the patience for it now, which can also be said for MH.
As Traceyg says, every single show just contains taps and noises (that funnily enough, I can never hear - and I have very good hearing) and stone throwing. They may as well just put the same episode on over and over again (or better still, don't put any on at all).
It's just become one big joke, surely Yvvie and Karl can see that by now?

Even through my 5.1 surround sound I cannot hear 99.99% of what they do. Its even loosing it funnyness for me now But at least I can use it when I cannot sleep as it is starting to bore me so much that I find it hard to sit through a whole show even with x32ing through the adverts, Rossy, Shrek, etc...

What was I saying about Julian's tight fitting shirt. Popped in to see our intrepid group last night while the ads were on. There for all to see was a glimpse of flabby flesh ugh. Can someone answer two questions for me. Why did they have a talking deck chair with them sitting in an old lorry?,and has Ciaran been given an award of some sort, he was wearing a winners sash?. ;D ;D ;D.

Annie I know exactly what you mean, if I do have it on it's usually just as background noise and like you say, if I do try and watch any of it I soon become bored, tired and want to sleep.
Not quite the reaction from viewers that they're after, I don't think!
Barb I'm glad I missed the flabby flesh, it can't have been a pretty sight.

Well have any of you seen the 2 Hostel slasher type movies. Set in eastern europe of course (they had Vlad Drac C D's insperation for Dracula) they i believe were meant to be in Slovakia the idea was the rich and depraved "buying" in an online auction young attractive boys and girls to subsequently despatch in the most sadistic sick and depraved manner, that they could think up. What if that is the only route for MH to take,they willhave to go to the absolute solution to try and make their show still viable. That ain't gonna happen, and good job too. Mind you would be totally fascinating to see what "script" Karl and Yvve would come up with

MASTERMIND ! thanks Jo and Sall for the reminder and the pics !
Anyway back to MH so far night one was particularly non event heavy ...didn't hold the interest bar the intial parts where they showed Prague and its sites in all its wonder. Night Two I missed due to sampling the delights of Callander's fine beverage establishements. And so far Night three has started in the usual fashion with Wossy wittering on in his vent act suit (I keep expecting the camera to pan out showing his hand uncermoniously shoved up a wooden mini version of himself), Slavic the Shamen is battering a bodrum and looking wilder than a mansun cult member...Yvette has the appearance of a women that has had her eyelids sewed open, and Cleggy appears to be smuggling two peanuts up his shirt as a handy snack between items.
The premise of a Prague show was a little more interesting than some of their more dull location choices...and I have to admit the local info bits have been more interesting than usual but the actual meat and veg of the show ...the "investigation" is the same old same old .
Jo ....didn't you also think Lesley's first night suit looked as if she was a failed auditionee for a Vogue era Madonna tour ? I agree though she is likeable in a nutty barmarm kind of a way.
