Albert Finney plays a druncan womanising landlord of an old cambridgshire inn called the Green man, run as a high class (and priced) restaurant. Finney's character enjoys regaling the guests with tales of the ghosts that haunt the inn.

After his father passes away, he begins to realise that there may be more truth to the stories than he first imagined, pretty soon he's communicating with a 17th century cambridge proffessor who may have discovered a way to continue on after death...

The benefit of a 3 episode, 50 minutes an episode series like this is that it gives the story time to devlop properly, add to this the stella cast and Green man is a ghost story well worth checking out.
I remember watching this at the time, I guess my parents were used to me watching Horrors and reading Stephen King books at this point seeing as I was 11 when this aired and they let me watch it. Can't remember a damn thing about it now though!
