1980-12-20? min⭐ 6.2/10

It’s harvest festival time and Worzel is on loan to the vicar in order to keep the starlings out of the Church rafters. He isn’t the only newcomer at the church - the vicar also has an orphan called Samantha staying with him. Worzel is posted in the graveyard, but as night falls he becomes scared of the ghosts. Meanwhile, the Church choir are practicing for the harvest festival service but as the orphan Samantha draws attention to herself in a pure white smock, John and Sue realize who she really is - Aunt Sally! Once the choir is in full swing she slips away in order to get back to the vicarage first so that she can eat all the supper that Mrs Braithwaite has prepared. She must first however cross the graveyard, and as soon as Worzel catches sight of her in white he is off, heading for the vicarage. He gets there first and when Aunt Sally comes along he realizes there was no ghost, but if you’re in the choir there’s plenty of tea and cake!
