Join Isy Suttie and Dan Skinner as they roam the weird and wonderful corners of the UK, meeting the characters, unearthing the oddities and celebrating the glorious quirks that make every place special.

In each episode, they go their separate ways, try something new and reunite at the end to compare notes. Great Escapes is about more than just travel – it’s about saying yes to the unexpected, discovering what makes a place tick and finding adventure (and laughter) in the most unlikely corners.

In this Halloween special, Isy starts her day behind bars at Britain’s most haunted prison – a place that once held the Kray twins, a few accused witches and, somehow, Paddington Bear. As the lights flicker and the temperature drops, she hears tales of the inmates who never quite checked out.

Meanwhile, Dan takes on a different kind of spirit at the Showerings Cider Mill – birthplace of Babycham, the fizzy 1960s drink that made post-war Britain sparkle. He meets the family keeping the legend alive.

And all this in Shepton Mallet – where ghosts linger and the past just keeps on fizzing.
