Daisy May and Charlie Cooper’s NightWatch is coming to BBC Two

The pair will sleep over in some of the spookiest and most haunted places across the country!

BBC Two has today announced a new six-part series, Daisy May and Charlie Cooper’s NightWatch, which reunites This Country's Daisy and Charlie through their mutual and lifelong passion of all things paranormal.

The pair will be locked in together, overnight, in some of the spookiest and reputedly most haunted places in the country. Their mission will be to stay from dusk till dawn, hopefully alone.

From centuries-old castles to abandoned Victorian prisons, each episode will begin with a tour from the building custodian, who will reveal all the spooky stories and chilling incidents reported at the location over the years.

The series will start, where else but close to the Coopers’ hometown at HM Prison Gloucester. This vast prison has long since shut its doors to new inmates but willingly opens the gates again for Daisy and Charlie who will spend the long night shut in a small cell.

The curious pair will then travel and explore what the rest of the UK has to offer on its paranormal plate, including: a historic castle in Northumberland, an old pub frequented by highwaymen in Cannock Chase, bat infested ruins in Herefordshire, a creepy cinema in York and an isolated bothy in the remote Scottish Highlands

The history of each place will be carefully uncovered, revealing the past in all its gory and fascinating detail. They’ll then be left to their own devices, which is when the fun will really begin.

From midnight, the clock will start to slowly countdown to dawn as they try to settle down for a ‘good’ night’s sleep. It could be a very long night.

Reflecting on their family life, sibling rivalry, numerous previous jobs, as well as the success they have enjoyed with their Bafta-winning BBC Three mockumentary This Country, this series will give audiences a new insight into their personal lives and their relationship with each other, with no holds barred!

They’re not just there to banter of course, there is work to be done and spirits to be un-covered. Daisy will have her personal spooky briefcase full of the latest gadgets and gizmos to test out.

Question is: What secrets will be uncovered and will they still be talking to each other as dawn breaks?

Speaking ahead of the new series, Daisy May and Charlie said "We’ve both had a brush with the paranormal, and really do love the concept of life after death, so we thought this could be the perfect way to prove to the world that we’re not delusional. It will be a miracle if we both come out alive and well."

To which the BBC's Head of Factual Entertainment and Events, Catherine Catton, added "We are really looking forward to spending the night with Daisy May and Charlie Cooper in some of the UK’s spookiest places."

Made by Daisy May and Charlie Cooper’s production company, So Humble, Daisy May and Charlie Cooper’s NightWatch will be produced by Stephanie Fyfe, directed by Rob Gill and executive produced by Lisa Clark.

Speaking about today's announcement, Lisa Clark said "Working with Daisy May and Charlie in some of the spookiest buildings in the UK was terrifying – but also a lot of fun."

Daisy May and Charlie Cooper’s NightWatch will air later this year on BBC Two
