1.2 'The Bellova Devil', written by Alan Barnes and directed by Lisa Bowerman. Featuring Stephen Thorne, Duncan Wisbey and Alex Mallinson. A body is found on the Circle Line wearing full dress uniform. It is identified as Reginald Colville - a man who was certified dead some six weeks ago!

1.3 'The Spirit Trap', written by Jonathan Morris and directed by John Ainsworth. Featuring Janet Henfrey and Lex Shrapnel. Ellie Higson believes that spiritualist Mrs Vanguard can hear the voices of the dead, but Henry Gordon Jago thinks it's all superstition and theatrical trickery. But if Vanguard is a harmless fake, then why have some of those who have attended her seances disappeared so mysteriously?

1.4 'The Similarity Engine', written by Andy Lane and directed by Lisa Bowerman. When Jago takes a tumble on an unseasonably icy road, he ends up in hospital. But this is no ordinary medical establishment, and the patients are suffering from no ordinary illnesses. At last, the fiendish scheme of Dr Tulp is drawing to its cataclysmic climax.
