Afterlife: Series 1 and 2 Box Set on DVD

Lesley Sharp stars as reluctant medium Alison Mundy, a fantastic performance that won her the Royal Television Society’s Best Actress award.

Featuring an all-star cast, this chilling psychological series enters the world of the deceased to answer questions about the living.

ITV’s Saturday night primetime supernatural series, created by the award winning Stephen Volk, averaged six million viewers.

In the climax of series one Alison collapsed and nearly died during a séance in which she makes contact with Robert’s son. Sceptic Robert witnesses this and questions his disbelief as he turns to Alison to try and make sense of it.

Now recovering, Alison realises that she will never be free of the spirits and decides that her life’s purpose is to help the dead resolve their problems with the living. She is deeply disturbed when she learns of a terrifying presence from the past tormenting her life and has to confront it before it she loses her sanity.

Afterlife Series 1 DVD contains all six hour long episodes and also includes commentaries from the actors, producers and writers.

Afterlife Series 2 DVD contains all eight hour long episodes as well as a fascinating 45 minutes behind the scenes documentary.
