There's little wonder in the working-class lives of Bill, Eileen, and their three grown daughters. They're lonely Londoners. Nadia, a cafe waitress, places personal ads, looking for love; Debbie, a single mom, entertains men at the hair salon after hours; her son spends part of the weekend with her ex, a man with a hair-trigger temper. Molly is expecting her first baby and its father acts as if the responsibility is too much for him. Eileen is bitter, complaining about her husband and the dog next door; Bill's a doormat. His West Indian neighbor offers him a drink; her own grown son locks himself in his room most of the time. Will anyone connect during this Guy Fawkes weekend? Written by <jhailey@hotmail.com>
《異世奇案》是一玄幻靈異類劇集（《鬼語者》），主公是幾位擅長「催術」并信奉「靈魂世之說」的「私人探」?；蛟S他們不被稱作「偵探」，「研究員」更合適－因為他們的主要作是在Samuels中心一家專門機構（SCCR）從事「人腦」、「意念力等方面的研究。他也會承辦一些「案」，和「往世」有的案件。來找他們客戶分為兩類，一是前生惹了麻煩，輩子要遭到報應的；另一類是前生遇了麻煩，這輩子要查真相的人。SCCR的任務就是設法「糾正」前生犯下的誤，「解決」前生留的麻煩。第一版集劇本中，他們要決一起謀殺案。這「偵探」有兩位領人。一位名叫Kate McGinn（Kelli Giddish扮演，《Life On Mars》），是個研究員兼心理學專家；一位名叫Price Whatley（Nicholas Bishop扮演，《Home and Away》），曾在紐約警局負責命調(diào)查，最近才加入個團隊。Kate是個堅定的靈魂轉(zhuǎn)世信徒，而Price是個堅定的無神論（想起什么了？《X檔案》？Mulder和Scully？）。他倆在一切問上都存在矛盾，爭自然是少不了的。過，就是這對歡喜家，總能在最關鍵時刻偵破別人想都敢想的懸案。哦，了，人們常說「打親罵是愛」，吵架能吵出感情來的－這不，Kate總想著她和Price上輩子可能是愛侶…
