    This is WICKED!!! I LOVE IT!!! I wait every Sunday for it to finish on BBC3 so I know its gonna be on iplayer - don't get digital signal in our area. Its ace! Have you seen the pilot? I saw it t' other day on youtube! you will have to watch it in different parts and the only original member is Russell Tovey (who was pitted as the next Dr and if he was he'd have been the first gay actor to be the DR.). Its great... you've got me excited for Sunday now!!!!! Enjoy!

    I tried to get into it...but I am not quite sure what it is trying to be and it is on far too long.

    A comedy drama that cleverly uses an ambivalent miscellany of fantasy and reality to explore the nature of the human spirit.

    I'll have to look out for that pilot hippie_girl, didn't know there was a prequel to the series.

    That was from my head.

    Are you being a troll again?

    I said I'm never a troll.
    I was just being light hearted.
    It sounded like a BBC press release, that's all.

    And I forgot about Gilbert the ghost in episode 3, got a few laughs out of that character too.

    If it is any good the BBC will drop it.

    McLeodGanja, I re-watched an episode today. I still didn't get it, but it was quite good. I think what puts me off a little is those pretentious adverts for it. I'm suprised they don't have it on BBC4.

    I don't get what it is you are still trying to get.

    It's just a bunch of twenty somethings pretending to be werewolfs and vampires.

    Did you like it?
    Do you want to watch the next episode to find out what happens in it?
    Would you rather watch that than, say, Harry Potter or something?

    If the answer is yes to the above three questions, then may I suggest you sit down, shut up, and just watch the damn program. It's not a Shakespearean opus, it's just Friends set in Bristol.

    According to this weeks Radio Times (Letters Pages) BH will be back for a second series next year.

    I kinda like it now...the accents/tone of voice/internation grate a little....but only a little.

    Yeah it's down for an eight part series 2, it's been getting rave reviews everywhere.

    I found the series finale a bit of an anti climax actually.

    I'm all over the place with it. My shift patter forces me to watch things when ever I am awake -morning noon or night. So I have been watching episodes at 3-4 in the morning. I have no idea If I am watching them in order. Doh.
