Preview Ep 1: Eve of the War

Me! Yay! Soooo exciting!

Can't wait!!

Even more excited now, another glimpse, more teasing....

but doesn't look good for our WW's ?

OMGGGGGGGGGG! Just Seeeeen it - Squuuuuuueeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!



Are you here Sasha? Sorry about that - you should have got here first really - but it just happened!



Oh My! What a clip! Saaashhhhhhhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Arrrgh....cliffhanger!!!



Thanks for this...and uh-oh for George and Tom #hides behind the cushion

Aaagh! I'm on the bus and can't watch on my iPhone, stupid Flash. I can't wait another 20 mins to watch at home!

That is soooo good. Must've had an outage Manc - I'd seen it on front page before this blog page was up. Oh susie as you say it is NOT looking good, not looking good at all. It looks as though that was the double transformation that we had in the trailer. OH MY!

Who called the Star Wars line?



Oh right it was.......



Smugness.

I swear to all that is good, I am a nervous wreck. That was the room wasn't it - you know the one with the double transformation. I'm sure it was. Oh no - is it Tom that kills George? I don't think so - they are the same *pack* surely? Oh please don't let George die a horrible death - even if he is getting a door with Nina at the other side!



Manc - who cares who was here first but I think I actually got to see clip before it was *attached* to this blog page so that can be my claim to fame! :-)

8. Ha! Yes you did, too!



7. Oooh Sasha, you're here.. went back for you - I can see it now! BOOM!



Hello Lia! Lovely to see you! Hello Ruby, susie and shoepigeon(what a great name) :D I'll have to watch this again and again and...

I am so enthralled with this show,but I cant watch the previews or anything for that matter because I live stateside :( :( anyway I can watch it on my end???

Oh Yes Ewan - bl**dy well done sir! Three cheers for Ewan. Hip, hip, hooooraaay!!!! Champagne all round - Ewan is buying!..............sluuurrrrp....

I can't watch it!!!!!!!

Oh noooooo!...not looking good for our lovely George (well, for both of them actually but we know that Tom survives) Looks like those naughty vamps are playing mind games with our boys as well as *gulp* kill games.



George looking very pale..and rough: maybe trying to be a vampire hunter is not a good idea Georgie....

Hi everyone!



The radio interview was good. No spoilers but plenty of good humour and Socha-eyebrow related teasing. Apparently they demand their own trailer!



Oh my! I think we're all going to need beta blockers, man-size boxes of tissues and plenty of Tena Ladys on Sunday night.



14 Yes, our George is definitely a lover and not a fighter.



Champers courtesy of Ewan. Don't mind if I do...hic

Really worrying indeed...but that's hat happen when you get rid of "poster boy"...



not a wise decision after all, for all those werewolves out there ;0)

16 - He got that the line George would say was 'It's a trap'. Rebecca - I think caradoc thought it would be 'but I'm your father' just before babawolf tore him to shreds.



Thanks so much for all this lovely stuff, Rebecca!

Oh Jess and Susan - so sorry - do you want us to tell you about the clip - it can't be long before you see it over on BBCA



Yay! Champagne! Thanks Ewan! sluuurp!



Oh yes Dorina - poor George *sob*

Hi, breathless blog.



*Don't look, Rebecca* I expect we'll see this clip on Cultfix before it shows up on BBCA. And.... I was right: https://cultfix.co.uk/being-human-eve-of-the-war-clip-16338.htm

15/16 Quick question - I can listen to radio interview on BBC iplayer, right? But what about the interview on BBC Breakfast? I don't think you can watch BBC Breakfast on iplayer, can you? Not sure. Can you not steal it, Rebecca, and put it on the blog? Just wondered...

(Oh and did Michael Socha swear? Always touch and go.....)

I have a cunning plan ,doh

And yikes!!! George & Tom getting flipped off... so creepy.

Let's see if it works



https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/12577835



:0)

20 Fleem - You. Are. A. Genius! Really well done for helping out your fellow country Being Human fans see the clip. *wipes tear from eye* Stirling Work! :D

Thanks Rebecca! We'll be there!



My living room is off limits to everyone but...me! Have already warned boyfriend and flatmate ;0)

Remember the red button Sunday immediately after the show

Being Human interview on BBC breakfast starts at minute 22!!

25 - Oooh live blog! Enjoy your swim Rebecca! Have a good weekend and SEE YOU SUNDAY (at the latest eh?)! :-)

xxx

24m- SAZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You are BRILLIANT! THANK YOU! Can see it! *cartwheels*





25 ooooohhh Thank you Rebecca - A lot of the Bloggers from the USA want to be on the blog in the lead up to the start of the 1st Ep - but then say they will dissapear until they see the 1st Ep on BBCA. I don't know about BH Bloggers from OZ and NZ - not sure when BH S4 starts for them... {group hug}

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!! 2 more sleeps or 2 more nights not able to sleep with excitement & anticipation.

24 & 29 - Fantastic Saranethbell! Thanks - be good to see it again! Cheers for that!! x

Ah Sunday. Over here we'll all be watching the Super Bowl, which is the biggest event in the USA besides Christmas, I think, so much so that public water pressure drops in systems nationwide whenever there's an ad on. They have tried to mitigate this by making the ads must-watch TV, I kid you not.



It will at least help to dissuade me and other USA fans from being spoiled by all the live blogging. Go Pats!

Gotcha! ??? The return of Smug Nancy?

Forgot to say have we organised the party rings? pink wafers? sweeties? Pizza's, 2 for one on cider Etc? you know general party goodies that are tradition on a Sunday evening for our series launch party if we have and I missed it ignore me I'll just bring a random shepherds pie

Oh, this does not look good. It's just dawned on me that we're losing our favourite WW. George will be missed!



Thanks Rebecca, enjoy your whiskey, you thouroughly deserve it, i hope Friday and Saturday are not a blur! See you Sunday.



Well done Ewan, spot on with the Star Wars quote. I personally thought it would be, 'These aren't the droids you're looking for'. Lol.



Oh and good afternoon everyone. Business is picking up around here!

Oh dear God... So, so excited for Eve of the War! Great clip, and I cannot wait to see what happens next. Fingers crossed that George makes it out of the episode alive.

25 - Thanks Rebecca! loved the clip. Soooo tense. Two more sleeps. I shouldn't be excited really because I just no I'm going to cry!

21 @ Manc. I love how you automatically assumed Michael Socha could've swore on live tv. I was waiting for it with baited breath but the boy did good!

@saranethbell



'merci' so much



and thanks for the 22minutes indication



a great interview: Lenora is beautiful, really, no joke. Michael is furry cute as for Damien : young padavan, promises you show

Oooooooo - looking good! :)

24 -- This worked for me until it decided my bandwidth was inadequate 2/3 of the way through. Saw Leo & Hal, which was sweet! Lenora had just started talking when it cut out.



Stupid rotten rural internet :(

Saint, Manc, Sasha you're welcome!



Liked the interview too :0) can't wait for Sunday!

Poor, poor George, he's just not cut out for vampire hunting is he?



I hope he gets to rip at least one vampire apart before the......you know, end!



*Stifles sob at the loss of a brother of the fur*

36 - Lovely Nevaaprincess No! We need a shopping list... (don't forget to buy the tissues).

I wish we could all be together in RL (real life) when we watch it.... We could all go to Ewan's house.... :D



If you are a 'lurker' or a 'reader' of the Blog - please comment - lovely to hear from you. xxx

46. All of us together? That would be great but Ewan would need a mansion!



I'll bring a Laurel & Hardy dvd to cheer us all up afterwards.

Ooooooo OMG defiefnely cnt wait now,



"It a trap"

can't wait now, so excited!

Oh no! Not looking good for George or Tom. So excited now! :)

46. You implying I'm lurking Manc? lmao ahhhhh I'm just soo excited. Can you imagine if we did all get together for a BH party. In my twisted little mind it would be like the last gathering of the Vampires at Deadwards Ewan standing by the door like Ivan was greeting everyone and handing out red wine with an excellent vintage

@MANC



champagne is on Saint, Panda happy to contribute Chinese Dragon cookies on behalf of the New Year, can't be more supernatural than Dragons for Wales



https://suziesweettooth.files.wordpress.com/2012/01/chinese-new-year-dragons.jpg



since LMFLAO, we all know Champers maybe an alternate answer to vampires.

*whispers* I have my laptop back....no more sharing...is a happy Ruby again.



Sunday...i won't be watching the episode live as i have a Top Gear loving husband who'll be watching his show first otherwise i shall get no peace. I'm seriously looking forward to the first episode of this new season...really am!



And look....laptop back!!! *dance of joy*

so how does Superman cut his hair?

51 - ROFL! In my 'twisted little mind' - me toooo! heh heh



52- Saint - ah yes! If ever we had 'luck' then no greater 'luck' than the Year Of The Dragon' -thanks to MissPandaBear for the reminder.



And I must say, great publicity this year and well done Roxie and everyone - you did a great job. xxx



53 Ruby - chuffed to bits that you have your lappy-toppy back (ch22 of Fine Again) - but do you know that you can watch Being Human on BBC iplayer live?



See - Hubby can watch Top Gear on TV - meanwhile Ruby goes to lappy-toppy and goes to https://bbc.co.uk and then clicks on iplayer. Once there look on the left-hand side, underneath the Most Popular stuff - You can see -'watch now' for BBC 1 - but at the side you can click on BBC3 - and then click on the pic above and you will get live streaming of BBC3. Have a go now.. and then we can help you if you have any problems... love Manc

54 - kryptonite scissors

Manc: Nice idea but i'll be slap bang in the middle of bedtime routines with my children. We tend to record everything to watch at our leisure, it's extremely rare that i watch anything 'live', i didn't even watch *that* ep live which was just as well considering what happened...don't think my husband would've appreciated me blubbering all over the place like i did much later on.

56 - can't believe you knew that! Erm, on second thoughts... it's what you do!



57 - Ahh yes - the bedtime routines... and then the blubbering... yep - right first time Ruby - watch it in private. :D

Sorry did someone say Ewan was having a PARTAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY? Count me in - can I come Ewan? I'll bring some crisps!

How thrilling - just hearing the music at the beginning got me so excited!

I'll be watching it when I get in, probably half an hour to an hour later than normal - choir rehearsals every Sunday evening of all days! I wonder what's going to be on the red button afterwards, if anything. I can't get red button content on my Tivo box so that will be frustrating unless it turns up somewhere else.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!



...that's all I have to say on the matter. No, wait...one more



Is it Sunday yet?!!

Hi Gingernut. Just a thought, but earlier Rebecca mentioned that the blog will have some new content after the show finishes on Sunday night - might be slightly after 10pm due to technical issues. Maybe that will be the same content as will be available using the 'red button'. Hope it is and that way you won't miss anything!

61 - ROFL - I feel your pain!

Woo! It looks amazing! Really want to give poor George a hug though, perhaps he has become a social worker between series - he certainly has Wendy's harried look about him! A red bull or three should perk him up to fight those pesky vampires.

Have watched all interviews and listened to radio ones, have finished Jo's book, so I think I am ready now, let the madness commence! xx

@fleeeeem!!!!

Thaaaaank yoooouuuu!! How very kind of you to post the link. :-)))



Hello all! Clip looks great. Won't join the live party, though. I'd rather not spoil the surprise until I can watch the ep myself on youtube.

Two sleeps... :-)

As a follow up to 62, I'll be on the blog after Sunday's show - straight after. So a HUGE thank you to billybunter for pointing out the 'red button' - I'd never even have thought of it and if Rebecca hadn't mentioned *extras* on here after the show, that's where I'd have been. So a thanks to billy for peeps that might not have access to blog after show but will have access to red button.

tmxghost - (Ryan from the BH crew) has just sent a message:



"Your blog responses on #BeingHuman are really interesting and well thought out. Mwahahahahaha"



Been taking lessons from Ewan if you ask me - but *waving* at Ryan and lalscotton from the blog! And thanks xxx

afternoon/evening all!



and Oh My! great clip, can't wait...oh wait, have to wait, but that's ok....



@ewan - congrats on the deserved smugness. And thanks for the champers!



So, who Got Them? Exactly who do we think got them? Griffin? Cutler? Hal??????



@sasha - red button?



@Fleem - thanks for the post! Yes, SuperBowl Sunday. all I can say is....

Go Giants!!!!!!



@Shoe - how does a female vampire put makeup on?

Got to say George looks a right state

68 - Hi Sunny - hope all is good with you. Sorry but the 'red button' is a thing peculiar to UK I think. If a prog is on and it has a 'red button' showing at the top right hand corner of the tv screen as you look at it, if you press the red button on your remote control it will take you off and give you extra content, the option to maybe see a different screen (say if two football games are playing at the same time and you want to jump between both to check the score, that sort of thing). I know I haven't explained that at all well but I'm sure you'll have the same sort of thing in the USofA but just call it by a different name. I'm sure someone will come along and explain it better than I can - I sincerely hope so anyway.



How does a female vampire put make up on? ROFL - how many hours have we spent on that one.



Hope your team wins on Sunday!

@buzzbrain, @sunny: You're very welcome for the link. I was surprised I beat Ewan in posting it. He usually grabs them quick!



@sunny, I think the red button is the live stream for the shows running on BBC. Not available to the likes of you and I.



I just KNEW vamps had to have special arrangements for getting haircuts. Explains M's rather unkempt hair in S3.



PS: we are obligated to root for Pats, but OH is still quite fond of Eli Manning.

Now we come to 2 days left with those who think they might be unable to sleep wouldn't it mess with your head if you crashed and fell asleep at 9 on Sunday?

67- is that only twitter stuff? I sometimes feel quite left out you know :-( My own fault I know - twitter is just one step too far for me. Hope they look on the blog too - sure they do.

72 - Yes that really wouldn't be good - but neither is not inviting me to your party. So can I come? I did say I'd bring crisps. I'll bring other stuff too - you know party rings, cupcakes and all. SO CAN I COME?

48 HOURS!!!!!!!!!!!!

74 - No Sasha - the BH Crew ARE reading THIS Blog - and I post their comments so that Bloggers who are not on twitter don't feel excluded. xxx





Ohhh Ewan. *rolls eyes*

75. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!



*cough* composure, I have it here somewhere. Probably won't be around during the liveblog but I'm sure I'll spread about enough incomprehensible excitement before Sunday evening to make up for it ;)

Manc and sasha, if no invite is forthcoming from Ewan theres plenty of room at the kennel!



I'll sit outside and guard the door.

78 - Woohoo Manc - we're in!!

Ah! The red button is like the yellow button on my DirectTV clicker, the one that gives the sports scores. There are about ninety million TV services (give or take several million) in the USA, so some, but not all of them have something like that. But we don't have the BBC one, that's for sure.

78. That invite goes to everyone of course!



Thought i'd better add that before Manc comes at me with a rolled up newspaper!

@Fleem - ah. understand now. and of course, we don't have the bbc one. Undecided if going to catch the live blog, as won't have seen the episode.....part want to, part doesn't.....*sighs, wishes bbca could have cooperated*

82 - Sorry I didn't explain it properly - knew I hadn't. Didn't know what to reference it against!

To be fair, Sasha, your red button sounds much fancier than my yellow one! Generally the shows themselves don't deliver extra content themselves; that's the responsibility of the TV service, and the sports scores, or weather, or interactive content is provided by the service. Some channels might have extra audio (like a dubbed version) for a show or things like that, but it sounds like BBC can do more integration than we can here, because they're both the service AND the content.

Can't wait for this!!!!! I reckon it'll be another cage fight. They're coping with the pre-transformation twitches better I noticed.

85 - It's definitely full moon night, isn't it? You can see the light out of the window behind them. But George and Tom have been together on a full moon before, when Mitchell and Annie were in the cage, and they didn't kill each other then, so I'm hoping they will play nicely if forced to transform together. Eek. I think I'd better start making cups of tea now - we're going to need them!

If it's a trap then vampires are planning a dog fight again. This is gonna be interesting. I'm gonna miss Nina though :(

Thank you so much Fleem and Saran for the links!

Oh and sorry Sunny...."Go Patriots"

Ewan kudos for the Star Wars line.



Fleem thanks for the link, all sorts of worried now for poor George.



Super Bowl what Super Bowl, football ended when the Packers lost ;)



BigBadDog, I could bring a cheese tray to the party.

Ok, maybe it's because I'm blonde or possibly I haven't watched Star Wars as much as the rest of you but, what Star Wars line?

Morning Bloggers! Morning Mods! Morning Rebecca!



91 - Morning DK. A magazine - not sure which one - had a load of spoilers in the other day. It was mentioned that George would have cause to use a well known line from Star Wars before something *bad* happened. Well Caradoc thought it would be 'but I'm your father' which would be shouted by George just before the babawolf killed him. Ewan said it would be 'It's a trap'.

Which was used in the clip shown - Ewan was right!

This of course doesn't rule out that at some point later George will shout 'but I'm your father' before being eaten by babawolf - ok Caradoc :-)

I didnt have access to a computer yesterday and it seems Ive missed loads...!!!

Kudos to Ewan but Im still holding onto my theory....LOL...!!!

One more sleep amigos !!!

@Sasha - I really hope Im wrong to be honest as if Eve does eat Goerge then how will we ever truly get to like her.....:(

It was the spoiler I read about someone changing when they werent expected too that drew me to my crazy conclusion....

95 - It may not be crazy at all Caradoc - we'll find out soon. There's nothing to say we need to like Eve (or whatever her name will be). I'm quite happy for her to be bad and more than willing to dislike her! Time will tell.

As you say, one more sleep :-)

@Sasha & Manc



Planning on getting my pic in the cafe tomorrow morning.......I havent got a crucifix handy so I'll use my roseary instead......Stake & chips anyone..???

What a wonderful day tomorrow is going to be...

97 - You certainly sound as though you've got a great day planned. Wonder if you'll manage to get George's seat? Hope we get to see the pics.......

****Spoilers****



Some more annoying titbits !!!

92. Thank you Sasha! ( and Good Morning) :-)
