WATCH TOBIAS MENZIES, JOANNA LUMLEY, POLLY WALKER THIS CHRISTMAS IN THE ROOM IN THE TOWER THIS YEAR'S GHOST STORY FOR CHRISTMAS AT BBC

   THE ROOM IN THE TOWER  
A 2025 GHOST STORY FESTIVE DRAMA 
BBC's annual festive A Ghost Story for Christmas series TV movie from Mark Gattis will this year be THE ROOM IN THE TOWER and will see Tobias Menzies playing Roger Winstanley, who has been haunted by an unsettling, recurring dream! It's 1944, and while sheltering during an air raid, Roger strikes up a conversation with Verity, a Wren. When he asks if she dreams, he begins to recount the haunting vision that has followed him formost of his life: a recurring dream of a mysterious house, a silent family on the lawn and an unseen, unidentified terror lurking in the room in the tower. But when he is invited to stay at a country estate eerily similar to the one in his dreams, and is assigned the very same room, he becomes increasingly disturbed as his nightmare begin to become reality. What is really lurking, waiting for him in the room in the tower? Airing on Christmas Eve on BBC Two as it has now become a holiday tradition in United Kingdom, this short TV drama also stars Joanna Lumley and Polly Walker.

  1. Ghost stores for X'mas sound really fun... a carpet on a lawn?

    1. I do not approve of it, but Gatiss is a bit of a crazy person, they do have the tradition of it from Charles Dickens...

  2. Un thriller psicologico che avvolge lo spettatore in tensione e mistero fino all’ultimo minuto.
    Buona giornata carissima

    1. My nightmares would read like a comedy as my biggest repetitive one was me suddenly finding out that I came to school with a duvet on my back LOL Since my bed under the duvet was the only safe place I ever felt as a kid guess it means I had a phobia from school and neeeded a protection from it.

  6. I've never had a nightmare I don't think. Most of my disturbing dreams are either about me only being able to walk at a snails pace and no matter how hard I try I just can't move fast. Or about my teeth falling out. That's all I ever remember from my dreams.

    1. Oh, teeth falling out usually means somebody was about to die around you, I dreamt it for all of my grandparents ahead of their deaths.

    2. I figured it's because I'm a teeth grinder and that's probably why I have it often. I usually dream about a specific person's death before it happens. Allison gets so freaked out by it. Everyone thought I was crazy when I was 17 and said my healthy dad was going to die because I dreamed we were standing on a cliff and he was telling me goodbye. A few months later he was diagnosed with lung cancer and died the next year. A friend of ours had a heart attack and was in the hospital. He seemed to be on the up and up getting ready to go home, but one night I had a dream he didn't make it. I woke up and told Allison that he wasn't leaving the hospital. We needed to prepare ourselves. She was like wtf when he died a few days later. This happens often and she's like "do not ever dream about me!" lol
