The Antiques Ghost Show
Template:Use dmy dates Template:Infobox television
The Antiques Ghost Show was a 'reality' show commissioned in 2003 by Living TV. Members of the public would bring self-proclaimed psychic Derek Acorah their antiques. After Acorah has made claims about the history of the item, using a method he calls psychometry, Christopher Gower and a genealogist are given 48 hours to verify the assertions.[1][2][3][4] When analysing the history of an antique, Acorah will often act out events he believes has happened.[5]
The show was sold to Bravo! in Canada and other networks in Australia, where in terms of ratings, it was immensely popular.[1][6] In terms of critical reception, it was met extremely poorly, with critics noting that just as much could be learnt about the history of the antiques without Acorah's readings.[5][7]
