Adapted from Antonia Barber's book 'The Ghosts', The Amazing Mr Blunden is a charming, nostalgic family film. Steeped in Victorian atmosphere, it tells a heart-warming story of compassion, hope and redemption. Near destitute after the death of her husband, a widow and her young children are approached by an elderly and mysterious solicitor, Mr. Blunden (Laurence Naismith), who asks the family to become the caretakers of a derelict, partly fire-damaged country mansion.
The family takes up the offer and shortly after moving into a small cottage on the mansion's estate the youngsters, Jamie (Gary Miller) and Lucy (Lynne Frederick), meet up with a pair of ghosts, Sara (Rosalyn Landor) and Georgie (Marc Granger), two children who were killed in the fire at the mansion one hundred years ago...
