In this period documentary, we take a fresh look at the unrivalled master of the modern ghost story, M.R.James and his life and beliefs. Did he believe in the paranormal? Shot entirely on location, the show explores the life of M.R.James from his early days in Suffolk to his life as a Cambridge academic and later Provost of Eton.
A historical journey presented by Ursula Bielski and Chris Halton.
We illustrate aspects of his life in fiction by focussing on two stories both of which were filmed by the BBC: `Whistle and I`ll Come to You` (1968) and `A Warning to the Curious` (1972).
And we retrospectively visit the filming locations in East Anglia used as backdrops to both stories.
Filmed and directed by Jason Figgis.
With Gerry Hughes as the voice of M.R.James.
