Description: During a routine colonoscopy, middle-aged, British dentist Bertram Pincus reacts badly to the anaesthetic and his heart stops beating. For several minutes he is clinically dead. Thankfully, hospital staff revive Bertram on the operating table but he wakes with a strange gift: he can now see and hear the spirits of the recently departed, all of whom are stuck in limbo. Tormented by one particular soul, Frank Herlihy, Bertram agrees to speak to the dead man's widow, Gwen, who lives in the same apartment block, in the hope this will facilitate Frank's transition to the other side.
