This episode is possibly the worst adaption of all the stories in this otherwise absolute all time classic of UK TV. Thankfully the outstanding cast and stunning locations carry it all through however the 'Raynes Ghost' part is terribly poorly handled from the original story where Tristan is known to be the ghost to James as he and Blenkiron give chase to the 'ghost'. The part where Tristan gives James a scare in the original story is a genuinely spooky moment which the TV producers utterly fail to portray. to the screen. A thankfully rare blip in this otherwise outstanding show. I'm being overly harsh but as this story is my favourite of all Herriot's stories and is disappointingly handled here.
