Last night I watched BBC Three's supernatural Being Human. Being Human is a British supernatural drama television series. It was created and written by Toby Whithouse and broadcast on BBC Three. It stars Aidan Turner as Mitchell, a vampire; Russell Tovey as George, a werewolf; and Lenora Crichlow as Annie, a ghost who are all trying to live a normal life. The first two series were set in in Totterdown, Bristol; during the show's third series, Sinead Keenan became part of the main cast, and the series relocated to Barry Island, Wales. The series is one of the most popular shows on BBC’s iPlayer.

Here is some behind the scenes's footage of last nights episode...

"McNair... you'll be needing this."
With these words the stake was passed over and the wheels of vengeance were set in motion. A fight to the death was on the cards and McNair was determined to deal the final blow.
On set the mood was charged with adrenaline. Dozens of actors, two camera crews and a vast abandoned swimming pool were combined to create one of the finest scenes in Being Human history. We got stuck in behind the scenes to see how it all happened, and somehow managed to avoid McNair's stake, Mitchell's fists and Annie's baseball bat in the process.
Episode four has passed and the truth about The Pack has been revealed. But already dark clouds are gathering and the return of Herrick is imminent...

With the clip above its amazing to see how much effort, time and money goes into one small scene in the episode. They obviously have to repeat the scene a number of times in order to get some really good shots. I love it! Its pretty much a combination of everything you want to see in a tv series. Its a mixture of genres including horror, comedy, thriller, romance etc, literally a bit of everything.

Here are some screenshots and google images from some of the episodes..

Obviously the makeup department must take a lot of time to create such intricate, realistic detail like in the photograph above. Much research must have gone into how a burnt, scarred, rotting corpse looks. It's also fasinating looking at how they make the characters slowly transform into warewolves and how the combination of graphics and stage make-up can produce a very scary, grusome yet successful look. 

The appearance of the famous star Lacey Turner attracted hundreds more viewers. I loved her cheekiness and her well, not so 'Stacey Slater' from eastenders attitude. She definately pulled off the character well, she is actually a very talented actress and didnt let the hight standards of Being Human down.
