Queen Elizabeth II was a fan of Ghosts, co-creator told
The final season of Ghosts will air on Friday 6th October.
The late Queen Elizabeth II was a big fan of BBC's Ghosts, according to co-creator Simon Farnaby.
Farnaby, who plays Julian in the comedy series, played a footman in last year's Paddington sketch for Queen Elizabeth II's Platinum Jubilee - and found out the monarch was a big fan of the show.
Speaking to Radio Times magazine, he said: "Her secretary confirmed it. So I said, 'So she might recognise me?' and he went, 'No.'"
The fifth and final season of Ghosts launches on BBC One on Friday 6th October, and fans will have to say goodbye to their favourite spirits after four years.
