"Carpe Diem" is the fifth episode of Series 5 of Ghosts and its 32nd episode overall.
Plot[]
Robin has an epiphany that has a far-reaching impact on the rest of the ghosts, who each struggle to believe his prediction. Alison suggests a spontaneous night out with Mike, just like the old days! They try to get the old gang together but with such short notice, only Obi and his new girlfriend Brenda are free. Despite Alison's efforts to plan the best night ever, the evening doesn't quite meet her expectations, and the couple are left pondering how much their lives are changing.
Historical notes[]
- Although the reason for the Captain's medals being upside down is revealed, the reasoning behind it still isn't accurate; as a serving member of the armed forces he would have been entitled to the War Medal and the 39-45 Star. For serving at a headquarters he would have been entitled to the Defence Medal, and the France & Germany Star was awarded for being posted to an operational area in North West Europe, even if for a day. So really none of the medals were particularly out of place.
Trivia[]
- Mary has a cameo in a long shot in the VE Day scene.
