"Ghosts of the Asylum" and "Strange But True?"

Anyone here seen those two shows? They're on "The Unexplained Channe"l which is Sky Channel 201, they're both British shows so I'm not sure if America has them yet.

"Ghosts of the Asylum' is a factual show about two guys, one is a sceptic and one is a believer, who are investigating a haunted asylum somewhere in the British countryside. The show consists of the two guy's handheld cameras. It's really interesting, and creepy. They ask if any ghosts are around and they begin to hear knockings on the wall. It's worth a watch.

"Strange But True?" is also factual but consists of interviews and reconstructions. Each show consists of (usually) two stories split into 15 minutes each about paranormal experiences. It's very good and also worth a watch.

I dont think we have those shows here in the US, at least I have never heard of them, but I have a problem with those TV ghost shows, it's too easy to fake this stuff on TV and you know they have to fake it because theres no way they would encounter stuff each and every time they go out, who would sit and watch two guys talk to them selves and nothing happen?

The funniest one here are the two roto rooter guys that investigate ghosts on their days off.....yeah...okay....

What's the one, from England I think? Most Haunted? I read a while back that someone on the show set up the psychic they used and fed him false information. He used this info on the air and made a total arse out of himself. He was booted off the show quickly after that.
