Didn't find a thread on this under search.

Anyone seen this? I saw Episode 4 (I think it was No. 4) and though it was not bad... Kind of want to watch it from the start now......

Do you mean Being Human on BBC 3.

If so it's entertaining. We've been watching it. (Recording it so not watched tonights yet)

We like spotting the areas they film as we live in Bristol.

I think it is the comedy where 3 people share a flat, one's a vampire, one's a ghost and the others a werewolf.

If he means Being Human, I've saw the first 4. It's been pretty good. Not that funny, in fact I don't think it's intended to be a comedy.

Although the guy that plays the werewolf is kind of funny.

Ah that's the one, I have a dyslexic brain at the moment.......

I didn't think it was meant to be a comedy per se, more a kind of drama.....

Not really a comedy, but still entertaining, there's quite a few funny moments, especially George. I do find I laugh at him.

Oh she gets it alright. hehe

I'm really enjoying this series, it's one of those that on paper sounds terrible, but is very good in practice.

Have been following this as well. Quite good, really liked the description of what happens when moving between human guise to werewolf, really well thought out.

The underlying story regarding the vampires adds another factor as well.

The hospital is Bristol General - Canteen is the real one too. Much of the place is not used. I used to have an office there so is quite fun spotting familiar bits smile

Don't worry it's apparently been given a second series. It's supposedly the most viewed series on Iplayer and the most talked about show on the BBC website.

Not watching it tonight but have it on series record. I'm saving it so I can watch it without the other half chipping in all the time.

my heart was going like a bloody freight train through this episode, why the hell I watch something with Vampires and Werewolves is anybodies guess (give me bad dreams).

Excellent series though, didn't miss an episode and looking forward to the series.

I've just found time to watch the last one.

Oh my goodness, poor Nina!

Been watching since the Pilot, there are still some bits that I'd argue with the writer's 'creativity' on but then I'd do that with Demons as well hehe

Roll on the next series biggrin

That was the second series, its was on before, about twelve months ago, but it sort of disappeared from sight.

Have been watching, developing into very un bbc three show. ie its well written and acted, quite original and could use some more money for slightly better effects. But is very character led and I like that.


Aha - I know realise I watched the pilot twelve months ago and this is indeed the first series, my apologies
