As the ghosts themselves work to uncover the truth, we have also learnt more about the unfortunate events that have led them to haunt the property, including a surprising backstory for headless Tudor nobleman Sir Humphrey Bone.<\/p>\n
If you\u2019re keen for Ghosts to return with more episodes, read on for everything the creators have said about a fourth season so far, and when we could find out more.<\/p>\n
Ghosts season 4 release date: Will the BBC sitcom return?<\/strong><\/h2>\nIt\u2019s yet to be confirmed whether Ghosts will return for a fourth season, but the writing team behind the acclaimed comedy have made it very clear they want the sitcom to continue<\/a>.<\/p>\nCo-creator and star Mathew Baynton, who plays hopeless romantic poet Thomas Thorne, has said that there are \u201cmore stories to tell\u201d with the show\u2019s large roster of memorable characters.<\/p>\n
Fellow Ghosts writer and actor Laurence Rickard added: \u201cThere are always ideas where we go, \u2018that\u2019s right, but not yet\u2019. And obviously, you\u2019re aware that you\u2019re banking these things on a hope.<\/p>\n
\u201cJust cramming everything in, regardless of whether or not it earns its place, would be a shame,\u201d he continued. \u201cAnd so I think we put things in the bank hoping that there will be time to explore them in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n
Previously, The Captain actor Ben Willbond explained how it can be \u201creally hard\u201d for the team<\/a> to know exactly what to include when there\u2019s such uncertainty over how many more episodes they will get.<\/p>\n ![\""Ghosts\"]( "\\"\"ghosts-series-3-bbc-one-cast\"\\"")
<\/div> BBC<\/i> <\/span>\n<\/div>\nIn an interview with RadioTimes.com<\/a>, he said: \u201cIt would be lovely [to be recommissioned] because I think this time around in the writing process, as we unearth more, you just go \u2018oh wow, we could do that in series four, but we haven\u2019t got a series four!\u2019.<\/p>\n\u201cIt\u2019s a nice feeling when you go, \u2018actually we\u2019ve got a lot of road here creatively\u2019. It\u2019s a nice prospect, but you are just beholden to whether the BBC want more or not. It\u2019s a really hard thing to contend with.\u201d<\/p>
However, it\u2019s possible we\u2019ll get some answers very soon as the second series of Ghosts was formally announced by the BBC a mere eight days after the first series concluded.<\/p>\n
That renewal turned out to cover not one, but two additional series of the comedy, but that doesn\u2019t necessarily mean the broadcaster would opt for a double order this time around.<\/p>\n
Nevertheless, it\u2019s quite possible we\u2019ll learn the fate of Ghosts in the coming weeks as commissioners analyse the show\u2019s reception and decide whether another series is viable.<\/p>\n
In the meantime, fans may want to check out the American remake of Ghosts, which is scheduled to debut in October, with the original creators recently weighing in on the new version<\/a>.<\/p>\nGhosts season 4 cast: who will be in it?<\/strong><\/h2>\nIf Ghosts were to return for another series, it\u2019s highly likely that the core creative team of Mathew Baynton, Simon Farnaby, Matha Howe-Douglas, Jim Howick, Laurence Rickard and Ben Willbond will return.<\/p>\n
In addition to their roles in the Ghosts cast<\/a>, they also dreamt up the concept and have previously worked together on CBBC\u2019s Horrible Histories and Sky One\u2019s Yonderland.<\/p>\nMeanwhile, key cast members Charlotte Ritchie and Kiell Smith-Bynoe would have to return for the story to continue, while supporting cast members Lolly Adefope and Katy Wix would also be prime candidates.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s possible that recurring guest star Geoff McGivern could also reappear as Mike and Alison\u2019s intrusive neighbour Barclay Beg-Chetwynde, who has been both friend and foe over the past three series.<\/p>\n
Ghosts season 4 plot: what will happen?<\/strong><\/h2>\nWhile most episodes of Ghosts can be enjoyed as their own self-contained stories, there are some plot threads that carry over across multiple chapters of the sitcom.<\/p>\n
From the beginning, we have been watching Mike and Alison\u2019s efforts to renovate the dilapidated Button House, with their hope to make it a beautiful place for events and accommodation.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, each series brings fresh revelations about the lives of Button House\u2019s deceased inhabitants, revealing the circumstances of their deaths in stories that range from hilariously morbid to genuinely emotional.<\/p>\n
We don\u2019t expect Jessica Knappett\u2019s Lucy to return for more episodes in a possible series four, as the mystery surrounding her character is wrapped up nicely by the end of the third outing.<\/p>\n
Is there a trailer for Ghosts season 4?<\/strong><\/h2>\nNot just yet and we wouldn\u2019t expect one for some time. If the show is recommissioned, filming probably wouldn\u2019t take place until January 2022 at West Horsley Place, meaning the trailer would arrive some months later.<\/p>\n
Ghosts is available to stream on BBC iPlayer. Check out more of our Comedy<\/a> coverage or visit our TV Guide<\/a> to see what\u2019s on tonight.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
