There was a spooky Christmas drama called "Ghost in the Water." This was shown on BBC1 at 16:40 on New Year's Eve 1982. It concerned the death by drowning of a girl called Abigail Parkes who dies in 1860 but is haunting the present day Tess Willetts played by Judith Allchurch. They original account has her down as death via suicide after the death of her beloved in a mining accident but the ghost wants this corrected as she actually died trying to retrive a ring. Ring any bells yet. If not - I'll keep on looking. It would help me though if you could perhaps remember the decade or what other programs were on before or after etc as this often helps pin it down. Hope it helps though
I have had a look through the usual sources and there are several candidates. It really depends on year and whether it was specifically aimed at children.
Cheers
Iain
