Filming wraps on series 2

Shooting has wrapped on the second series of hit BBC One comedy Ghosts.

The team finished recording a day early because of coronavirus, but got all they needed for the next batch of six episodes.

Star Kiell Smith-Bynon posted an image of co-star Ben Willbond flossing to mark the occasion:.

In the series, Smith-Bynoe and Charlotte Richie play a couple who inherit the haunted country pile of Button House.

The show was created by Mathew Baynton, Simon Farnaby, Martha Howe-Douglas, Jim Howick, Laurence Rickard and Willbond – the team behind Horrible Histories who also star as the ghosts, alongside Lolly Adefope and Katy Wix.

Two more series were announced back in May, a week after the series one finale.

Rickard posted today: ‘There is obviously more pressing news, but last night, with timing we could never have imagined being so important, we wrapped on #bbcGhosts series 2. Our crew are incredible and the rushes are a thing of joy. Feel very lucky to work with such superb humans.

Baynton added: 'We curtailed the shoot a day early but just managed to finish everything we needed. Series 2 of #bbcGhosts is in the can and I couldn't be more grateful to and proud of our incredible team. Stay safe everyone. Social distancing is cool af xx’

No air date has yet been announced for the second series.
