JDM's pretty hot for a maturer guy, isn't he ? sleazy And, yup, he has gorgeous skin ... Oops

It's great news about season II. I got hooked on the 1st episode & I love this show. You're right about the fanfics too - have come across a couple of good ones on fanfiction.net over the past few months.

There's an interesting article on Being Human's second series in this month's SFX magazine:

Writer Toby Whithouse says:
The Villains:
"There are two villains. There is the mysterious Mr Kemp who we saw at the end of series one, the guy in the hospital who was interviewing Owen. And then there is the person he spoke to on the phone, the equally mysterious Professor Jaggart. I've always been quite upfront about the fact that in season one the threat is supernatural in the form of Herrick, and in season two the threat is human."

The Vampires
"For Mitchell, there always was the assumption that once Herrick was taken out of the picture the green shoots of democracy would spring up. Kind of like when Saddam Hussain was deposed. They thought it would suddenly be all very civalised and democratic. And actually what's left with Herrick gone is utter chaos, and so Mitchell finds himself having to sort out a lot of the problems he created."

Sounds like fun and will be on the BBC in january yahoo
There's also an American version in the works which... yeah. Good luck with that. You've got enough screenwriters who are capable of writing new, original work, producer people. Do you really have to cannibalise shows whose charm is mostly rooted in the fact that it's set in a boring british little place?

Season 2 sounds great so far from what I have heard clap I can't wait of course I am in the states and will have to wait for bbc america to show it - I am keeping my hopes high it will be on by summer but who knows Rolling Eyes

About the American version all I can say is NOOOO!!!! I am american and the US attempts usually suck even if you have not seen the original gaah

There's a what?! They cant do this! American versions are hardly ever as good... and the idea that they could be better than the British version? A big NO for that thoought.... They should learn to leave a good thing be! I definitely agree with you bluebabydoll!

I bet we don't get Season 2 here... we didn't get Season 1... oh the joys of being Aussie... Evil or Very Mad

Season two starts sunday 10th january on BBC at 9.30.
I'm not sure if non-brits can accesss the BBC iplayer (www.bbc.co.uk) because you'll be able to watch it on there. It'll probably be downloaded on youtube within 24 hours too Wink

Andy Whitfield!
Sam Worthington!
Even though both were born elsewhere... but they still grew up here and have our accent! It so counts!
