Mediums will attempt to rid people of their unwanted ghosts in a new series for Living.

The eight-part run called Living with the Dead will focus on families terrified by their haunted homes.

Psychics Johnnie Fiori and Ian Lawman and paranormal investigator Mark Webb will be charged with visiting them to "reclaim" the properties.

"With Living having established the paranormal genre on UK television, people are still fascinated by ghostly goings-on," said the channel's commissioning editor, Mark Sammon.

"Living with the Dead will confront the terror that lurks behind the net curtains, looking at the real ghost stories that exist in everyday people's lives."
