....and whatsmore.......Annie got to kiss Mitchell.
You see, you don't know where you are with ghosts.
Then there was George's interrupted pee....

and....and.... they're having  werepuppies !!!   Pupppeeeeyys!! 

What did i say?!?!? i saw it coming Baby/puppy lol

Just watched the repeat as i always seem to miss the actual show!! (i know i cant believe it either) VERY good stuff, looking forward to next week with Robson Green wolf and son coming bacck into it, the relationship between mitchell and the new additions looks interesting!

Usual time of 9 o'clock  (and repeated at 11.30) on BBC3
The TV Guide in The Guardian describes tonight's as a "terrific episode."

Tremendous.
It's a long time since any television programme has engrossed me and kept me glud to the screen as Being Human does.
Amazing too, that laugh-out-loud moments can be chucked into the middle of that smashing and dramatic fight scene.
Truly terrific.

Herrick has re-appeared!

I know! Can't wait for next week now. Last night was brilliant and next weeks looks just as good.

Only a matter of time, I suppose: up till now, Herrick has been very much "the dog that didn't bark" this series...

Herrick excepted, one of the things this series has been notable for is the amount of foreshadowing going on, and I don't just mean Mitchell's "wolf-shaped bullet". For example, Sasha's death was mentioned on a news bulletin a week before she turned-up as a zombie. Last week, Cara was mentioned in passing by Mitchell's fangboy Graham, and guess what: she's back next week too...

I am very impressed Eugene's. 
Great attention to detail. I had not spotted the mention of Sasha's death.

It was mentioned in the context of her rugby-playing boyfriend. Remember when the newsreader went on to describe Mitchell's impending "match" with "Team Werewolf" in the style of a sports report?

Ah!  Right!  Yes. Thanks.    (I don't like to miss 'owt)

Good high viewing figures last night.
Over 1.25 million - which is very high for BBC3! 

The chavy vampire girl is back too 

If you mean Herricks lacky, the one who really needs to wash her hair Rawky i cant stand her

Aidan Turner as Mitchell

If you wish to know nothing at all about tonight's 5th episode of Being Human, then
it would be best not to look at these links (although they don't reveal too much.)
Being Human blog
and
a trailer (which has already been aired)

I'm not going to look, I'm not going to look, I'm not going to look...

Obviously I saw the preview clip at then end of last week's episode, and I've read the Radio Times write-up, but that's it for me. Apparently this is going to be a really strong episode (and the competition's been fierce this series).

Just finished rewatching last week's episode in preparation!

I admire your will-power Eugene's !!

Havent read anything! After reading Eugene's post I'm really looking forward to tonights episode! (not that i wasnt to start with)

Oh I so love this programme.
Just as I think it cannot get better or go to new places......it does.
Jason Watkins is so good as Herrick....and oh the torment of Mitchell tonight.
Smashing!

Can't believe Nina though brisket, the whole lot of them could end up in hot water now. The clip of next week at the end looks like Herrick remembers!

Oh dear Jen...
It continually surprises me.

Following the extremely tense and emotional scene where George attempts to dissuade Mitchell from killing Herrick,  a couple of scenes later:
Mitchell (to George): I choose you.


I filled up.

This short video goes behind the scenes of episode 5 (shown last night.)
The cast are careful not to reveal too much.





I thought the social worker was funny in last night's episode.

An image from tomorrow night's episode.
James Fleet is a guest tomorrow.

Thanx for this Brisket! I always forget to watch but have it on series record thingy, i will rememebr to watch it as it airs now (hopefully Lol)

Oh I do love it!
Yet another gripping episode.
Lovely performance from Russell Tovey, and a beautiful one from James Fleet.


But - and I do have a reservation  - something spoilt it for me tonight.
The policewoman, Nancy,  had one of those shrill croaky voices (rather like ET) whicxh many American actresses have latched onto these days. Sadly it is being picked up on this side of the Atlantic too. Most of them are doing it. I think it's a horrible sound (possibly the latest fashion)  and now someone in Being Human is using it.  Oh woe, woe, woe is me.
I can't stand it.
I would have hoped Being Human would be safe from this silly and annoying way of speaking.

Behind the scenes of episode 6....

All is not well with my Being Human world.
This is the first time I have had  something to dislike about the programme.
Why, oh why, does Nancy, the policewoman have to sometimes speak with one of those ET-like croaks beloved of American actresses these days? It's a daft and annoying fashion and I can't stand it.
Ah well! I'll just have to be brave and hope she is not with us much longer.

omg!!!

Nooooooooooo!

no werepuppies!  

and George!!!    What about George!

I am not happy with tonights episode at all

I absolutely adore this programme.
Every aspect of it is obviously done by very skilled people.
I am so pleased the policewoman with the piercing, shrill, croaky, girly voice has gone!
Always a new and unexpected direction.
Seeing Herrick back in police uniform was ...er...well  ...
Great stuff.

Tonights had me holding my breathe and I did a noooooooooooooooooooo..you know when..actually I did 3 noooooooooooooooo's tonight..it just can't get any better, it should be on BBC 1 now..top quality....

George and Nina will have their werepuppy. They have to...
So glad this is all back on track plotwise - edgy and gorgeous. It lost its way I think ... love the Mitchell and Annie situation.

Tom has to save the day and McNair (it feels so WRONG to find Robson Green sexy ) cannot be dead surely. The actor playing Tom is SO like his sister in Misfits.

But has she?
Watching  the repeat  - she looked bloodied and gone, but there was a little movement.
I do hope we are not going to be forced to listen to her as a vampire now!! Spare us that.
Last episode of the series on Sunday.
