"It's Behind You" is the third Christmas episode of the BBC One sitcom Ghosts.
Synopsis
At an archery demonstration hosted at Button House, the organizer mentions to Alison that he knew Pat and still has several of his home videos. She agrees to digitize them, wishing to show them to Pat at Christmas. However, after being tempted by Julian into taking a sneak peek at the Christmas presents Alison bought all the ghosts, Pat is disheartened after watching his family apparently mock him. Whilst the Coopers plan to spend Christmas Day with Mike's family, the ghosts take the opportunity to rehearse a pantomime as a present for Alison. With Pat still upset from the home videos, he abandons leading the rehearsals, which descend into anarchy as a result; Robin reassures Pat that even though his family made fun of him, they still loved him. After the Coopers spend Christmas Day trapped in a traffic jam, Alison and the plague ghosts watch the ghosts' pantomime of Cinderella (whilst Mike, who cannot see them, plays on his tablet). When Alison shows the ghosts their presents, Pat confesses that he already saw his; Alison cheers Pat up by showing him videos made after his death by his son, which show his family remembering him fondly.
