BH2: MEET DEREK...
In order to see this content you need to have both Javascript enabled and Flash installed. Visit BBC Webwise for full instructions
On any Being Human shoot there are two important locations...
The first is the set itself, where the cameras, crew and actors do their thing. The second is the unit base, a massive 'travelling circus' of lorries that set up close by to house the production team. This is where shoots are planned, actors are rushed into make-up and, most importantly, Tom the runner refills his tea urn.
The man in charge of keeping the unit base running smoothly is everyone's farourite 2nd Assistant Director, Derek, and he kindly agreed to spend a day showing us around.
Now, he looks like a nice guy, but if you don't keep to his schedule... well, let's put it this way, they don't call him 'Mad Axeman Derek' for nothing. Oh, wait, actually I'm being told they don't call him that. But he will give you a VERY ANGRY LOOK.
Be warned.

Another great video with gives a fantastic insight into how a TV programme is made. I've never really thought about all of this stuff before! It looks relatively easy being an actor when you see what everyone else has to do!
SuperOchre (1), I agree I love Derek a little bit more than Tom too!
Brown, I also love his accent!
Loved seeing Russell too....as I've said before, Russell seems a real pleasure to work with, and very entertaining too!
I could do with one of those umbrella things, that's for sure, especially today!
Right, off to have a little (OK, big!) glass of wine now, and will no doubt speak more to you all a bit later on.
Thanks again BH production team. xxx

Well enjoyed this..my first blog vid that I've seen at same time as all other bloggers. Agree that Derek is no way scary....I never used to find red haired men that fanciable...until Dermot Gavin hit the screens some years ago ( landscape gardener for all you young things ...ok...makes me sound ancient so will shut up ). But Derek is a lovely ..young..man. His job sounds exhausting but very interesting. And he gets to meet and talk with all those lovely people we met on Saturday.
Agree with brownirisheyes...why no mention of Sinead?...I had the impression on sat. that she was a major part of the second series.

Tom and that t-shirt...looked like he had an ECG machine secreted about his person and it was taking his heart rate....or maybe he had that double-strength stuff under his clothing, the kind Aidan had to wear when he was staked by Herrick at the house...it looked a bit uncomfortable.
Nothing about Sinead, Annie or Aidan...maybe they've got a bit of time off or something or their filming is elsewhere..Russell looked hot though...I love his coat, that's what I was after and could I find one? Russell...where do you get your lovely duffel-style coat, hun? lol
Be a second he said....cos we all want to be everything else other than what Derek is (gorgeous Scottish accent...I do love Celtic accents...grrrr)...well there's an opening, ladies...hehe

Red heads, brunettes, fellow copper heads- yup but blondes- N-O! It's a weird thing I have.
Maybe the cast were busy or they risked over exposure after the Mayhem meet so they showed us hamsters to distract us. ;)

Lenora has been speaking to us and would like to let everyone know that this is NOT her. She was first made aware of this Twitter feed at the Nottingham Being Human event last weekend when fans mentioned it to her, but our Lenora does not actually have a Twitter feed and would like to make that clear.
Bear this in mind when following updates from this source in future.
Sorry to break this news, guys...

Lovely of you to have mentioned it to us though, so thank you for taking the time to do that...there was a guy called Aidan Turner on there at one point who, though he never said he was THE Aidan Turner, certainly never denied it and seemed to be enjoying the attention...we cottoned onto him pretty quickly and no-one follows him now that I know of.
Thanks again Barry and Team!

I on the other hand, knew differently, and voiced my concerns...after all, I pointed out, he was actually over a 100 years old in human terms (in vampire terms he was only 26 or so, but let's not quibble over trifles), so actually all we ladies over 30 (!) would really be more his thing than some younger model as it were...we are a lot more experienced and can handle such danger... we know a few tricks or two....and now we have you to fight our corner as well, as it were...I can see we 30+ ladies are going to get on famously. hehe
Beatrice: Well I guess conversation with Gilbert would be difficult but I reckon Alex is a lot of fun in real life...he'd be invited to the party, along with all the 'dead' cast like Lauren, Seth, Herrick, Josie..it'd be a blast...

Those hamsters in the vid...made me laugh....soon as Derek held one, the little thing gave the camera a disgusted look and turned it's back on it...a bit of a critic perhaps? lol

When the page is refreshed, about 50% of the time the background goes black, the text is red, blue and every colour under the rainbow, some of the pictures disappear as does the previous video list at the bottom...even the shape of the comments box changes and becomes much smaller...a couple of refreshes later and it goes back to normal, only to do the same thing a bit later on..are there still problems at your end? Would really appreciate some help on this please...
Many thanks. x

A very belated hello to Derek...got to say ...you do have hair like a mad axe-man...but what an interesting job and how lovely was litle hammy.
Is it me, or did anyone else get a warm, fuzzy at the fact that they now assume that we know who Tom and Marcus are....makes you feel part of the family doesn't it?. Sorry if I am rambling but just watched EP 4...it has that effect on me.

First of all, thanks Team for introducing us to Derek (I want his job).
Thanks for introducing us to Hammies..so cute.
Thanks for Sinead's little vid.I will always remember how lovely and chatty she was with me at Nottingham.
And finally (with apologies if this has been sorted) Twilight obsessive nut-job fans against BH obsessive nut-job fans...well, bring it on. There is only ever going to be one outcome. Hehe

Although I've never tried to push RP under a car and the thought of watching New Moon in a cinema full of screaming girls is my worst nightmare. I also know that the books are terrible but the films are so appealing, I am easily seduced by cheekbones and brooding vampires. It's my only weakness.
I know we could take on the die-hard Twi fans! And the comment from Toby is correct, we are tenacious and mobilised. We might be fewer in numbers but our higher IQ average would ensure our win.
That said I'm still trying to figure out how to watch New Moon without having to endure the hormonal teen masses.
Sometimes you can't explain why you like something.. you just do.

I hated Twilight and everything it stood for so I decided to read the books and watch the film before I carried on ripping it and the fans. My brother told me not to, he reckons they put hidden messages in the film to hypnotise women. :p He might just be right because I got drawn into the hysteria. The books aren't very good, no. But they don't need to be. Some of the fan fic is streets ahead of the writing ability of the original author. :/ Still it's really addictive and I love RP just a teeny bit.
Being Human doesn't need to play on any of that though. Although AT now has quite a tenacious fanbase. Plus men and women really enjoy BH which Twi could never manage.
I.Q tests are a bit pointless. They test the person's ability to pass I.Q tests and very little else. Intelligence can be measured in lots of ways.
I love Derek's hair too. More Derek please! ;)

They just test a person's ability to pass that type of test. A bit like how in schools they teach you how to pass a test instead of actually giving you a wide variety of knowledge. If you take the test more than once your results will jump up because you know what they expect.
I can talk for England about this and it's very dull so I'll stop now. :p

Just thought I'd say Hi! Still waiting to see your photos from Nottingham Vampfan...I'd love to see them! You can see mine if you join Twitter!
Does anyone go on the BH Facebook page?...see link to side of this page. Something interesting has appeared on there. I don't know whether you need to be signed up for Facebook to be able to access it.
I've seen Twilight. It's a typical Hollywood film for teenagers. It's OK, but nothing special and I don't know what all the hype is about Robert Pattinson (maybe I'd understand if I was younger!).
Still, I'd like to see the new film when it's out (next week?), but will wait a while before I see it.
I was in HMV yesterday. The whole store is filled with Twilight and Robert Pattinson and vampires!!
Of course, Toby Whithouse is right, us BH fans could have Twilight fans any day.....although a hoard of screaming Robert Pattinson fans is quite frightening!
