Nothing to write home about

Excruciatingly dull, and insipid look back at the BBC classic. Incredibly overlong and missing some of the more interesting key characters that made the one-off special interesting. How anyone could make a documentary about 'Ghostwatch' and make it boring seems impossible, but the filmmaker successfully did just that. I could have done a better job myself. This is more like a fan documentary than a professional one and it's crying out for a pair of scissors. I would have also have improved the running time by going back to the key filming locations, and show how they have changed since shooting in the early 90's. However none of this is ever touched on. Just the same cutbacks to the same people, and in some cases people I'd never even heard of and had nothing to do with the show.
