Lockwood and Co (Netflix)

For the last 50 years the world has had a problem with unquiet ghosts and spirits, which threaten life and sanity. The danger is worse at night so a permanent curfew is in place and teams of agents use iron, silver and salt to fight the deadly foe. Children are the most sensitive to spirits and teenagers are recruited and trained as agents, supervised by adults in this parallel world. When a mission gone wrong in Yorkshire leaves a team of young agents dead or in a ghost-touched coma, Lucy Carlyle is unfairly blamed and moves to London to get away. Rejected by the major agencies, she joins independent outfit Lockwood & Co. There she hones her unique talents and finds her people, while battling errant spirits and the authorities alongside infuriatingly arrogant - and charming -principal Anthony Lockwood and nerdy researcher George Karim. Each of the eight episodes features a big bad for the trio to deal with, as well as fitting into a satisfying overall story arc. Ruby Stokes as Lucy makes a lovely down-to-earth heroine, nicely balancing the two boys as their friendship and work relationship develops, with a dollop of URST thrown in for fun. The story is genuinely suspenseful and finishes in a way to strongly suggest a follow-up series. Unfortunately Netflix has apparently cancelled the show.
