Fans of Rentaghost (BBC Television) will buy this because they have been amused by the programme. Hopefully non-viewers will discover it hidden in some enterprising bookshop and give it a second glance, because it is fun. Corny, but fun. And as anyone who has taken kids to pantomimes realises, they love corny humour. Nadia Popov's inadequate grasp of the English language provides an easy target for confusion, and this is milked naturally. 'What is amiss?' 'A miss is a female mister.' I liked it anyway, so there!
