Being Human

[KayHarkerNeedsToSleep]

Meh. I was really pleased about this coming back after the cracking pilot, and I've only just found out that Andrea Riseborough isn't returning, they're making it 'less gothic and funnier' and the rather attractive fey vampire bloke has been replaced too.

serenity, or anyone who is a bit more excited about it, come and enthuse me, I want to like it, but I've got a horrible feeling they're going to make 'Two Pints: The supernatural version' instead...

just been able to answer my own question

"An eight-part second series was announced by the BBC on February 26, 2009"

suddenly realised it won't be on tonight

my disappointment is immense

Aah, Mitchy, I know

'Twas left sooo open for the next series

aw thanks jem

any other tips for how to console self? I suppose I could check the tv listings for an alternative

Oh, I don't know, what is a lass to do? Hmmm.

Well, now unfortunately I have to tend to stinky demanding children

See youse when the next series starts!!

but when will that be?

I have just watched all 6 episodes on Sky plus. I wasn't even going to bother. Was getting irritated with it cluttering up Sky plus so though I would just take a little look then delete the lot. It was bloody fantastic. I can't believe how well done it was. There is definitely going to be a second series. Says so on the website here.

Mitchell is now at war with Edward Cullen for being most gorgeous vampire ever. I loved it and can't believe I nearly deleted without even watching .

FYI, the series is going to be repeated over two consecutive Saturdays, starting on the 28th March, and there's going to be a behind the scenes documentary at 9:15pm on that Saturday.

Oh, and I've written more stories on my LJ...

Kay, it is unfortunate that I only ever seem to post just after one of your LJ entries. But it sure beats contemplation of smart metering architectures!

Loved your treatment of how 'solid' Annie is, and why.

I love it when the hoops I jump through to try and allow a fictional ghost and a vampire to have sex is called a 'treatment' and made to sound very literary You are wonderful gizmo!

Smart metering alarms me. Dh goes on about it all the time.

Don't be alarmed...they're not that smart...they can't write scripts or anything.

Is your DH an engineer, then? I work with a lot of engineers. Explains the world weary demeanor.

No, he's a data analyst. I asked him last night what he knew about 'smart meter architecture' and he looked very alarmed at my ommand of technical sounding language.

I've finished chapter 2, which ends with, shall we say, a more detailed examination of the motivations and boundaries of actuality for Mitchell and Annie. (Not published it quite yet, I'm having my punctuation tinkered with.)

Wow, dirty talk in the KH household!

If you want to make him beg and plead, you could try 'back office functions.'

Kay what is your LJ?

Sorry for being a numpty, but you have me intrigued!

You're not a numpty, it's me using terribly jargony terms like 'fic' when I mean stories, and 'my LJ' when I mean 'my fiction blog on LiveJournal'

Fellow fans, I need help - if Mitchell was disturbed when he didn't want to be, would he exclaim 'Fuck!' or 'Shit!'?

I can't make up my mind, and it's becoming bigger in my head than it should be...

Could he say 'feck'?

Although more likely to say shit or shite possibly?

Ooh thanks for link, will have a look.

Yup, agreed, my first instinct was the s-word, I'll go with that. Thankye for your assistance

A reminder to watch the hour long behind the scenes special at 9.15 tomorrow evening. (Is this my new obsession? Does it show? )

Plus, the BH BBC blog is asking should they do the Annie/Mitchell thing in the next series?

I'm going for yes, but proper 'will they?/won't they?' stuff, not fluff. What say ye (if any of ye care, of course...)

Special about to start...

watching, i think i missed 80s ghoest

I'm having Gilbertfun as we speak

Dh has sodded off to bed, the bugger.
