Oh how I wish I hadn't clicked that link. Why can't the Yanks leave our stuff alone? Haven't they learnt anything since the travesty ending that was Life On Mars?

Grrrrr!!!!!!!!

      Can't quote from previous thread, but have only just founf the Annie Broadcasts section.

      I was all excited, thinking they were video clips but all I can find are still picture of Annie looking distraught with a 2 line quote from her.
      Bit of a let down, but I am going to watch the trailers to cheer myself up!

      They are video clips. Only just watched them myself here.

      I had clicked on them on several occasions, but now realise that I have been too impatient and that they take a while to load on BBC site... and that If I wait long enough (ie 10 seconds not minutes!!) the play button does appear.

      Looking forward to series 3, esp if Herrick comes back.

      Furry Herrick?

      I see that the US version of Being Human starts on Syfy there on January 17th.
      Do we get the same here, or are the listings on UK Syfy different?

      Sorry if this question has already been asked and answered.

      I see Sam Witwer, better known as Galen Marek, will be in it. They should do a scene where he electrocutes someone. The opportunity is too tempting to resist.

      I do have to ask, though, why they're even making a new one, the British one was fine as is, I'd think it would be cheaper to air the original ones. I'm worried the personal moments will be lost in the adaption and George will become a gun-wielding ninja who fights off Nazis. Or something. Wait a sec... If Wikipedia's to be believed, they changed the name of the original characters! FANBOY RAAAAAAAAAAAGE!!!

      Fortunately, I won't even be watching the US version, but FANBOY RAAAAAAAAAAGE!!! still applies.

      or with US obsession with procedurals will we be seeing Being Human - CSI?!!!

      I would like to start watching this but missed the first two series. Anyone know if there is a way to catch up with them before the third season starts?

      Downloading a torrent of each series is probably your best bet. Unless you want to buy the DVDs.

      I bought the first series on iTunes for my computer. You could do that, I s'pose. Or just, yeah, buy the DVDs.

      The week leading up to the 23rd probably. I usually create a topic before the series starts and we use it to discuss everything in there, spoiler free. :)
