Leslie Sharp and Andrew Lincoln

Look, you never listen, you never watch the movies or shows that I go on and on about.
But once in a blue moon, ONE of you trusts me a tiny bit, Keith just started Chuck, he got to episode 10 without even trying, Denise watched Season 1 of Battlestar Galactica and was amazed.

So I am rewatching an episode of Dr Who, dont worry, you would hate it, but it guest stars Leslie Sharp and she is AMAZING. So the first time that I was watching this one episode, as always happens when I am watching and entertaining myself, I google the show and look at what else actors have done.

Well, Leslie Sharp was in a short series with Andrew Lincoln.

WAIT WHAT? Andrew Lincoln? The same guy from The Walking Dead?
Well I love that series, so of course I would be interested in something that both of them were in, right?
RIGHT??

Afterlife
University lecturer Robert Bridge (Andrew Lincoln) becomes involved in a series of supernatural events surrounding medium Alison Mundy (Lesley Sharp) in this chilling TV series.

Look, I am not sure how I would explain this to convince you to watch it.
Haunting
Compelling
Amazing
One of my all time favorites.

Like all supernatural stories, they ask you to suspend disbelief. And if they ask too much, you can not enjoy the show. This one ask for the tiniest bit. One that a lot of people already believe, which makes the transition so easy. She can see ghosts.

That's it. She can see ghosts.

The consequences though are what make the stories amazing.
Some of them wont leave her alone. Some living want to contact the dead. Some are restless spirits, trying to be released.

Andrew Lincoln plays a psychologist who interviews her. Of course, he has a few ghosts of his own. Which will break your heart.

In the end, this is just some amazing writing and acting and directing from the BBC.

Enjoy

PS
If anyone ever watches this, let me know, I really want to know what you thought!
