I thought we should have a new thread for the discussion of the new series, as the old thread is quite long and refers mostly to the old pilot and news surrounding whether or not the show was going to get a series.
So, here is where we should talk about the new series that starts tonight on BBC THREE at 9pm and on BBC HD at 11pm. Opinions on the first episode, how good the new actor and actress fit the roles of Mitchell and Annie, how good the story and effects are, and of course, the obligatory "how fit is Russell Tovey?" debate!
ANY SPOILERS POSTED IN THE FUTURE, PLEASE MAKE SURE THEY ARE INCLUDED IN TAGS - THIS THREAD SHOULD BE SAFE FOR EVERYONE TO READ WITHOUT THE SHOW BEING SPOILED FOR THEM!!!
Can't wait for tonight... I may resist temptation and watch it on BBC HD instead of BBC 3, which means I shall be avoiding this topic until later tonight!

well having seen a few stills of the naked Mr Tovey the answer is VERY fit, certainly peaked my ahem interest shall we say!!

They are sort of glossing over details in the pilot (if not changing them altogether, e.g. location of Werewolf attack) but have included two pieces already (dead nurse and isolation room) that will mean nothing to people who haven't seen the pilot.
Any idea if Being Human is being repeated on BBC3?
I know there's iplayer, but I want to see it on TV.
Love it.

Thanks Paddy x
For the purposes of this series I think you will find the producers are taking the approach that the pilot was of a different cannon and consequently has nothing to do with this new storyline.
I thought it was a clean slate but both the visiting vampire and the shrine in the hall mentioned the nurse Lauren who he sired in the pilot so she is obviously still part of the plot.
Also the isolation room which was a major part of the pilot was reintroduced along with smashed furniture and scratched on the wall, although this was immediately written out.
Watching the repeat later. Thought it was due to srtart in Spring!!! Where have I been?!
Oh George!
I can hear the slash fanfiction being written even now
BBC HD - Tonight at 12:00am
BBC 3 and HD - Tomorrow at 10:30pm
BBC 3 - Friday at 9:00pm and 12:45am

Plenty of oppertunities to catch it between now and next Sunday!
