Children’s TV legends Dick and Dom are making a comeback six months after Celebrity Ghost Trip left them spooked.
The duo – Dick McCourt and Dom Wood – appeared to have fled to telly wilderness after a nerve-shredding Halloween guest slot on Channel 4’s ghoul-hunting show.
Dom, 44, ran out of the room terrified’ during filming.
The pair – whose show Dick And Dom In Da Bungalow was a kids’ smash in the Noughties – are still haunted by the experience and have vowed never to dabble in the occult again. But they are set to return to TV later this year.
Dick, 45, told the Daily Star: “It’s still all under wraps but you should hear something in about a month or so. I can’t say anything at the moment.
It’s an exciting year though.’’ Dick admitted the ghost-hunting programme – in which celebs were ferried round Britain’s most haunted venues – took its toll.Some of the things that happened on that show were pretty terrifying,’’ he said.
We ended up in a chapel in the middle of one of the most haunted mansions in the country.That was pretty terrifying because they have these spirit identifiers and apparently they can talk through them.
It was a bit out there and not something I’ll do again. Do I believe in the spirit world? I’m not sure.’’
He said the pals had recently started performing again after the pandemic wiped out 80% of their work.

Dom and I have done a few gigs lately,’’ he said. We’ve been back in the clubs, back on the festival circuit and back in the theatres.
It’s just great to see people back out and about enjoying live entertainment again because the last two years were a nightmare.We lost pretty much 80% of our work.
We had to kind of re-align all our work.A lot of it became online DJ gigs, online theatre shows, so everything was done from home. Separate homes as well – Dom in his home and me in my home.
“It was a challenging time but it’s great to be back.”
