Book Description

28 Nov 2010
Being Human, created for BBC Three by Toby Whithouse, puts the supernatural firmly into the everyday world.

That cute, geeky hospital porter? A werewolf.
A flash of a sunny smile and some grey leggings? A ghost.
The dark-eyed Irish guy at the bar? A vampire.

George (Russell Tovey), Annie (Lenora Crichlow) and Mitchell (Aidan Turner) live in a pink house in Bristol and all they want is to be normal, to fit in - to be human.

After a successful pilot in 2008, a full series of Being Human was commissioned and shown in 2009, with a second series following in 2010. The pilot gained an enthusiastic and vocal online fanbase - a community that grew and grew throughout the series, helping to give BBC Three one of its most successful programmes.

As well as reviewing each episode from the first two series in detail, this book looks at the birth of the show and profiles the characters and the mythology behind them. Not forgetting - of course - the plots, the themes, the darkness and the humour, in fact just about everything that being human really means.

An affectionate, humorous, and occasionally slightly sarcastic, exploration of the world of Being Human. A must for all fans of the series.

5.0 out of 5 stars A guide for all true fans. 25 Mar 2011
Format:Paperback
From the very first page, its clear the author loves Being Human, just like her readers. With behind the scenes details, quotes, snippets from online & magazine interviews, profiles of all characters and the actors and actresses who bring them to life on screen, alongside indepth yet humourous reviews of all the episodes between the much-coveted pilot and the series 2 finale. This is a brilliant series companion. In fact the only downside, such as it is, is that the images included are drawings (most of which are very good, I hasten to add) and not photographs but that is understandable as this is an unofficial guide.

Those who've followed the show from the beginning might already know all the stories and read or seen all the interview but I don't think there's any shame in enjoying re-reading them all together in their very own book. And for the newer fans, its a chance to learn the origins and history of one of the best loved TV shows produced by the UK in recent years.

All in all, this is an entertaining and affordable must-have for all fans, new or established, of the UK Being Human!
