And not forgetting...

And, since it's also been wonderful, you should all click here and catch up with the web-drama Becoming Human - the spin-off murder mystery featuring Being Human's teenage vampire charm-offensive Adam.

The episodes are only short and the story has enough to keep any Being Human fan hooked, as I have been. Rumour has it that the entire thing will be shown next week, in Being Human's slot on BBC Three. I urge you not to miss it... We'll find out just who murdered poor Matt and why in less than a week. It's a mystery that has gripped me as much as the parent show's storyline this year!

The cast are great. Adam, played by Submarine star Craig Roberts, is a must if the parent show needs a new vampire. The chemistry between him, George and Nina was perfect. And since the story in Being Human looks to have been ramped up somewhat in time for series four, why not bring back Werewolf Christa, played by the gorgeous Leila Mimmack and Matt, the lovable yet loveless "fat Doctor Who fan" ghost, played with more heart than a Scottish Butcher's Shop Window by Josh Brown.

I want more of this, too. What a greedy television fan I am!

Oh My God!! - Being Human (Contains Spoilers)

Poor, poor Nina. Poor, poor George. Poor, poor Annie. Poor, poor Mitchel. Which one of these statements is the most valid? Well, based on her previous behaviour - anonymously reporting Mitchel - probably not "poor Nina". And since Mitchel is a mass murderer who really deserves to be punished, probably not poor him! As for George, he just walked away from his pregnant girlfriend, leaving her to the mercy of the newly reinvigorated Herrick, so probably not poor him either - although he didn't know what would happen.

The last fifteen minutes of Sunday's penultimate episode of Being Human was utterly edge-of-the-seat stuff. I was breathless. I almost cried when Nina was stabbed by Herrick. I've turned against Mitchel though agree with George that a reveal of the Supernatural World would be an awful thing...

It seems the only people we should genuinely feel sorry for in all of this is Annie and Nancy - though I fear Herrick may have recruited himself another apprentice there. Also, we can feel sorry for McNair and Thomas - although McNair was about to off Mitchel, too, so there really is a morally blurred line through this series.

Bottom line is, the third series of Being Human has been utterly outstanding television. Why this is still on BBC Three is a mystery. The drama has been ramped up to heartbreaking levels. I literally cannot see where this will all end. There's one episode left and I don't think it'll end well for anyone! So much so, in fact, that I've been thinking about this. The following is JUST a personal prediction. I don't know anything at all for sure, but this is what I believe will happen...

George arrives at the police station to find everyone dead and Mitchel about to leave. They run home. They find the rest of the dead officers and Nina. She's alive so they rush her to hospital. Mitchel wants to know Herrick's secret but Herrick wants more than ever before to take control. I believe the "Wolf Shaped Bullet" that will finally end Mitchel's reign will be none other than poor George.

I cannot tell you how excited I am to find out what's to come. Not long to go now. But the sad thing is, this could very well be the last we see of these particular characters. A horrible thought that's disappointment is only offset by the knowledge that Matt, Adam and Christa from Becoming Human are more than worthy contenders for places in the parent show, should it continue.

Becoming More Involved

BBC Three's supernatural comedy/drama 'Being Human' is well and truly back on our screens! Last week Annie was rescued from purgatory by Mitchell (with the help of Lea, played with gusto by Lacey Turner) and this week our favourite monsters helped a young vampire, Adam, come to terms with having to deal with his condition without his "food-supply" dad. We've had some really interesting characters already this series - and we're only two episodes in! - like the Werewolf Family from last week, who I've lovingly nicknamed The Greens. We've also been given the groundwork for a chilling series arc - Mitchell's prophesied end at the hands of a Werewolf, but will it come true? 

One other mystery (and several other great characters) happen away from the BBC Three show, however. Adam's story from this week's Being Human is carried on in the web-series 'Becoming Human' (episode 1 here), 12 minute episodes following the mystery of how Matt Bolton died. 

The characters are teens (again, a vampire, a werewolf and a ghost) who are struggling to come to terms with their own 'supernatural' existence as much as they are struggling to just be a teenager in a Comprehensive School today. The characters are slick and interesting, youthful and fun. They instantly grab your attention - especially the fantastic Adam (the brilliant Craig Roberts), a cheeky and charming 46-year-old vampire condemned to live in the body of a 16-year-old boy. Together, it seems, the three will spend the web-series getting to the bottom of just how poor "Fat Matt" died. Was he killed? Was it an accident? Does it have anything to do with eggs?! If you want to find out more for yourself, go here and catch up on the mystery now!

Wherever the series goes from here, the characters alone should make it a very worthy sacrifice of twelve minutes of your time. So, that's almost an hour and a quarter of Be(com)ing Human that we get to enjoy every week! BBC, you are spoiling us! I love Being Human and Becoming Human looks to be just as much of an experience! I have a horrible feeling I'm about to fall in love with these characters in a big way! Brilliant stuff! But, does this mean we're looking at a Skins-style character revamp (pardon the pun) for series four of the main show? I don't think I could do without my weekly fix of George.

Don't miss Being Human, Sunday Nights, 9pm on BBC Three (catch up on iPlayer now) and Becoming Human online at the link above soon after the parent show airs.
