Live from Liverpool, the Dark Paranormal, Season 20. Hello everyone and welcome back to the Dark Paranormal, the penultimate episode of season 20, that's right, it's episode nine already.

And although it's hard not to make this sound biased, I have genuinely, on a personal level, enjoyed this season more than any other.

We've implemented a lot of changes in how we do things, specifically in the back of house

illnesses, ongoing fights with broadband providers,

or alleged providers,

and things such as that.

So it should have been a nightmare,

about doing this show,

and long may that continue.

So genuinely, thank you. You guys have

made this show get to season 20 and I cannot wait to deliver you season 21. And speaking of which,
