hi just wanted to know if anyone watched most haunted on livingtv and what people thought of derek acorah.

:o Derek Acorah is a good showman but take what he say's with a pinch of salt :roll: once got intouch with Living tv and asked them if we could investigate with them :rolleyes: never heard anything from them.

Strange how they always see something on the show ;)

We as a family always watch Most Haunted, we have been to many of the places and this summer we are Dick Turpin ghost hunting.

I just hope cable stays on this time and the plug is not pulled like the last Live Most Haunted.

That guy is absolutely crackers... I bet he's read all the books and knows all the family line up of who's died in that house etc...

Cant resist watching it though... :P

Watched it last night and it was fantastic, we were all glued as to what was happening and I can`t wait for tonights live link.

Watch it, but sometimes can't take it seriously.

REASONS;

Everyone quietly listening to some sound whilst Ms Fielding is going 'SHHHHH, SHHUSHH' at the top of her voice.

Orbs(?) that are clearly spiders hanging from threads of web with their legs, uppermost, trying to climb back up.

Most Haunted Unseen. Unseen by whom?

And where's all the video footage they would have from locked-off cameras?

i watch it religiously and my dad is in the same field as derek and has met hjim spoke to him a lot

the point raised above bout they always see something they dont they just show the bits of them seeing/hearing something its be pointless showng lots of footage of nothing and occasionally showing bits where they see orbs etc

:thumbsup: Talking about Most Haunted we have a DVD for someone to win on our site YPS (http://www.yps-online.co.uk)

i love this programme have watched it since the first series but i feel like its getting a little bit far fetched now,anyone see derek possesion last week!!!!!omg

I also watch this show religiously..
I think its great entertainment and long may it continue!

watched it since first series, i think there taking the live shows to far prefered it when it was just one night every few months. 3days gets a little boring but i do love when derek gets possesed best laugh on TV!

It's ridiculously over the top, and hilariously stupid.

Admit it, you're just doing that to be annoying now, aren't you? :)

I watch most haunted because I want to see something. I'm not a sceptic but haven't experienced anything myself to say I'm a believer.

There are a few annoying things about MH especially that background music they play when you're straining to hear something. When Derek was possessed one time, I did think it strange that the camera angle was a close-up from a lower angle even before the actual possession and wondered at the co-incidence. It's the little things that get me thinking at times.

I hope Matthew Smith stays with MH - Phil was one of my faves and I understand he's no longer with the crew now . I like Stuart when he gets scared as he's quite entertaining but I think Richard Felix needs to relax a bit, he gets too excited when things are happening.

Anyone going to watch tonight?
I have booted up all four webcams, what do you think will I spot a ghost?

forgot this was on.

dont think i see no ghost tho,never do.be good to see this time who derek going to turn into tongiht.we got a bet on of how many times yvette will say " did u hear that".

be good one time to see someting that they see.

I've got the lift lobby & corridor cam on at the moment but not seen anything yet ;) keep switching from cam to cam but not hopeful of spotting owt :P

is anyone one be watching this tonight and the next couple of days.

i like to watch it.but get fed up of yvette saying all the time
" did you just hear that".
think i look on the web cams tonight to see if i see anything that other people see that you hear about.

i like this kind of stuff.but like to see something for once.i once thort i did see something same time as my mate,but think it was a cew member playing with the test as nothing was said about it,and just was not use ither that saw this,as i go into most haunted forum.

so have any of you watched this and seen something on the web cams.or dont you belive in it all.

I'll be watching tonight!
Where are they filming from please?

EDIT: Just found it sorry, they are in wakefield.

Yes i will be watching, i have tried watching the web cams before never seen anything though. (GOOD LUCK).
Love the programme but yvette gets on my nerves abit, she gets spooked too easily.

Well i can tell you that it was just a moth lol..its flying arround the web cam.not an orb so nothing to be dissapointed about lol..i got all 4 cam up at same time but cam 4 dont seem to be working.

I can't stand Most haunted, whats worse then Most haunted is Most haunted live.

They missed out on a marketing trick, there. Most Haunted Dead has a better ring, surely?

I'll probably be watching, as You Never Know..... :suspect:

I do find Derek rivetting tv.

But I'm getting a bit bored now with the format. Seems to be very much 'same old, same old'.

What I enjoy more now is "I'm a Celebrity...and Frightened"! It's interesting when there's a celeb on who does seem to be psychic eg Julie Goodyear - although all these most haunted live-type prgrammes are obviously very stage-managed.

My boss (a goth) went to the most haunted live from York race course the one over Christmas. Until then she really believed in it. Until the people who did the phsycic writing and drawing were asked to show the things that they had done in the night. Nothing during the show because they got them out of a folder just before the section (she had been watching them all night). Also before they went into the next section she heard one of the assistants say" When Derek goes into one of his trances in the next section we will cut back to the Hub".

How much is true and how much is false I can never hear most of what she does because she will not shut up.

Was that with Shirley Ghostman? :hihi:

It's funny how he only goes into trances when the camera is on him even when it's live. You never see him coming out of a trance after the adverts have been on and saying shucks you have just missed it. Anyway it's a nice little money earner for Yvette Fielding seeing thats who the audience make the cheques out to.

this is what i mean about this program.as when we wach it one time,befor they was due to go into a war bunker.they had some test to see if these coins move...now me and mates was watchin the web cams.and no lie 5min before they was due to go in we saw a bloke shiffting these coins about,,and we all thort it was a ghost,but nothing was said on the program..and i go into most haunted forum and they was not only us that saw this.they was over 200 postings about it saying they seen the same thing....so that why im a bit humming and arrring over most haunted now,..just watch now to see if any more slip ups.

Been up to the "base" today at elsecar heritage centre,my girlfriend wanted tickets, but she failed,instead she dragged me halfway to barnsley,still she was happy,she saw kiaran o'keefe and cath the make up girl:rolleyes:

I find the show fantastically funny, Yvette shouting "Shhhhh, did you hear that" every 5 minutes and Dereks "trances" keep me laughing all the way through the show. My other favourite is counting how many times Derek says "lost his/her life", just say "died" Derek, it's quicker.

All credit to Yvette though, she produces the show and stars in it, so it's in her best intrest to keep hearing things.

The other week I posted on a thread about Ghosts regarding Most Haunted and now I will repeat the warning for your safety....

My friend told me that by watching Most Haunted you are letting it known to the spirit world that you are open to visits and they come in the night and lick your knees!

Be careful what you are getting into people. Your knees could pay a hefty price.

Also worth checking out is Derek Accorah's website as it has a wonderful tale about his former life as a clean-kneed peasant in Africa.

i just read about derek acorah on his web site.and read the about sam bit,how he came to be with sam...all i can say to that story is :loopy:

"What's that Sam?...What's he saying?...Charlatan?...That's right, he says that I'm a silver-haired charlatan!"

:D :D :D excellent, I agree.
I think he's making it a little too clear about the research he does, notably the London Dungeon episode where he was waffling about Jack The Ripper. He was quoting info from a speculative book and suggesting that JTR came to visit the waxwork of himself. How ludicrous is that? If you were a ghost and could do as you pleased, I think you might get bigger kicks out of the afterlife than looking at waxworks!
I think he also struggles to remember what he's been memorising during his research and Sam is his cover up for his memory lapses while he searches the old cogs.
If you read about 'cold reading' on a google search it's quite amazing about how many 'hits' of correct information you can come up with by guessing.
Fraud, fraud I say!

The best Most Haunted was the one when Derek contacted a female spirit called Mary who had had a husband called Richard.

He just kept saying... "Mary loves *ick. Mary loves *ick. Mary loves *ick"... A hem.

Did anyone who watched Most haunted Live last night experience paranormal knee licking in the night? I am conducting an experiment to prove my friend wrong.

Did anyone hear the Darth Vader breathing going on when Yvette Fielding was on the stage in the theatre??

My eyes closed and I suddenly woke up again during the experiment tonight.

Is anyone watching tonight???

Derek is disappearing into a dark shaft.

I hope he is wearing a helmet.

yes iam watching tonight...i dont think he got his hat knocked off.he knock it of him self i think.as for derek ?.....no i dont think he was draged as you see his hand drop wile he sopose to be draged.but he says that his arm was out straight :huh:

I think they're desperately trying to make you believe something is about to happen so you keep watching....

Which is what they always do really.

derek has gone way over the top,whenever theres a quiet spot on the show you can depend on him to be affected by the spirits,hes an attention seeker,thats his only medium

There's one bit that really irritates me!

http://www.sheffieldforum.co.uk/showthread.php?s=&threadid=32460&highlight=vidjual

But I still watch it :roll:

any one noticed how clean this pit is? they have been down there for two and a half hours and are spotlessly clean

i think they are more of a danger to themselves than any spirit
and as for the noises,thats the roof settling,thrown lumps of rock?,no its natural roof fall. any one who worked down a mine will tell you the same,scary noises = rats or mice.

pure television bunkum

Well said, that fella. Trash. But we all keep tuning in for more. It's an addiction!

The whole thing has been pantomime tonight! Particularly funny was Derek Acorah pretending to be pulled down an old shaft... :lol:

They said it was the best ever most haunted live :suspect: not one thing caught on camera again. If it was for Yvette then it wouldn't be worth watching.

The rules of Most Haunted:

1. No scientific data of any kind must be collected, collated, verified or subjected to any scrutiny.

2. The slightest sound must be accorded the greatest significance whislt at the same time no effort is made to establish its source.

3. "Nightvision" is to be used and refered to as such despite the fact that light sources are plainly visible whilst it is in use.

4. Webcams and locked off cameras must never have either recording or time index features, because what use would those be to a scientific investigation trying to record evidence of the paranormal?

5. During lone vigils, what is important is that the camera is on the face of the team member rather than filming what they claim to have seen. Evidence that Eve has wet herself at the sight of her own shadow is more important that the actual phenomenon that put the wind up her.

6. All crew members must try to maintain the illusion that they get on with Richard Phoneix (or Felix, the annoying "Historian") and regard him as a learned and erudite scholar, rather than a hack who'll agree with whatever nonsense Derek spouts.

7. Objects that move need never be in the centre of the image, at least half must be off camera. This in no way leaves the team members open to the accusation of nudging tables with their feet and proclaiming to be in contact with the other side.

So.. MHL is ready to air again over this weekend starting tonight...

How much air time will be taken up with ad breaks and Julian Clegg getting us to ring the premium rate line to win a dvd :rolleyes:

Im working tonight so will miss it. If anyone is watching let me know if the ghost shows up :D

8. All tables used for 'table tipping' must either have odd length legs, or be on an uneven floor so 'the spirits' don't have to work so hard.

9. During Most Haunted Live, no spirit, poltergeist, or other 'entity' will perform during the predetermined commercial breaks. (Watch Living TV + 1 for evidence of this, as the adverts are on at exactly the same times during both programmes!!!!!)

10. The batteries in the equipment must drain 'inexplicably' despite the fact that they may be 'sour' through not being fully discharged prior to being recharged.

STOP PRESS....... Missing video camaera found attached to dog's head. RSPCA suspect a ghost did it:(

STOP STOP PRESS..Camera stolen off the dog's head now.

Police searching for a ghost carrying a video camera.

That poor doggie on "Most Haunted" tonight :( I nearly had a nasty turn when I first saw him - couldn't immediately work out what the heck was wrong with him!

Fancy making him wear the camera as a hat..... :rolleyes:

Absolutely, call the RSPCA.....

Gonna fit mine onto our moggie tonight....see where he gets to.:heyhey:

I missed it last night. What happened?

omg yay!! someone else who watches most haunted lol, i could go on all day about MH!!, Max the dog is cute but not with a big whack off camera on his head!!:(

nothing much hapened last night but towards the end of the show they had some poltergiest activity and Yvette went abit of the top with the language!.

The new presenter is very slow at reading what he's got to say.....gawd i miss David Bull so much!!!:( .......him and his bright orange tan!!:D

So will someone tell me what I missed last night? I was at work!

And in view of last night's programme:

11. Tell the 'spirit' to move the bell across the table, pan camera to look at the dog - who's doing nothing - for a minute, then go back to bell on table and hey presto..................................the bell has moved to edge of table.

12. While stuff is being chucked about, make sure camera isn't pointed in that direction..............make sure we have close-up and out of focus shots of faces instead.

Many thanks for that insight :D

I can now go to bed .. fox is poorly :gag:

Nearly forgot:

13. An alsatian dog, the size of a pony, with a camera strapped to its head and permanently held on a lead inside a building would tend to have a crap wherever it can if it is bursting. This is NOT paranormal Yvette!!! It is a combination of diet, bodily function and gravity. All explainable. :thumbsup:

Where the heck did they dig that presenter up from ? Didn't they even bother to audition him before hand ? his words just didn't roll off his tongue and stuttered his way through out and was constantly looking at his cue cards for the crew members names! they would have been better having Julian Clegg (Mr Spock look alike) presenting, at least he can speak a full sentance without pausing.

Yes...but we all love the prog! We will be watching tonight for the Ghoulies (or is it Goolies?:clap: ) to show themselves

If there's nothing else on, and I'm bored, I might do, so that I can pick out the obvious holes in the plot. I might be logged on here as well or reading a book at the same time.

Life doesn't get much more interesting than this, does it! :(

Typical on here, Mike 616 stirs us all up 19 months ago and then s*ds off, leaving us to it

I think Derek Acorah is Lily savage without the make-up. Hilarious, especially when he goes in one of his 'trances'. Most Haunted is a programme for the criminally gullible.

http://www.badpsychics.co.uk/

This site points out quite a few of Dereks mistakes.

Watched it again last night and I thank all the crew who did the prog.

They have cured my fear of the dark (LOL)
