Harold and Ethel Meaker live in South Ealing and run 'Rentaghost' where they rent ghosts out to the public. Over the years many ghosts came and went but the main Rentaghost crew consisted of Timothy Claypole - a jester at the court of Queen Matilda (The Dreaded Tyrant of the Twelfth Century), Hazel the McWitch - the ghost of a Scottish witch who was recruited during the rentapotion venture, Nadia Popov - a Dutch ghost who still suffered from hay fever and had a habit of 'popping off' whenever she saw a flower, Fred Mumford - originally founded Rentaghost after becoming a ghost in a shipping accident six months previously and ran the business for a short time, Hubert Davenport - a distinguished Victorian gentleman, Harold Meaker - originally the spooks landlord but later took over the business when Fred Mumford couldn't keep up with the rent and Ethel Meaker - Harold's wife who fancies herself as a bit of a singer. The Meaker's next-door neighbours, Rose and Arthur Perkins, were convinced that the Meaker's were a pair of nutters and hired a private detective, then tried to get a psychiatrist to convince them that they needed treatment.
