S4 Files: Kirby's Playlist

Ooh First? Could it be? Creepy Kirby killing to seventies disco funk!

Dose this tell us when he was recruited?

Mmm..... sad thing is I remember all those all too clearly !!

For a murderer he has a very upbeat, cheesy taste in music.

Loving a bit of Otis Clay there

Now are there any modern tracks that he might have heard on the other side.

Kirby's obviously not cool enough for Parliament, Funkadelic or Curtis Mayfield!



But then he was a Trekkie.

I also love the fact that if you search 'Gotta Go Home Boney M' on Youtube and watch the first video all the recent comments are by Being Human fans - we're taking over the internet.

Ohhh! I dont recognise any of the music on the list.

Look what ive found

******Very mild spoliers*********

https://www.sfx.co.uk/2012/02/28/being-humans-craig-roberts-interviewed/

I am pointedly refusing to admit that I might know any of those songs!! Or that I might ever have worn a tank top...

Oh no! Now any time I hear any of those songs all I'm going to see is Kirby dancing lol.

being immune to shame, I will saY I loved maxine nightingale and remember dancing on her music

cerrone

chicago

boney m ohhhhhhhhhhh boney m and rasputine!!!

There is photographic evidence of me in tank top and flares but I have no conscious memory of it, so it doesn't count.

Love it: music to murder girls by.

2 - What do you mean by 'recruited' Ewan?



Also in the last blog the picture link for lycurious - how did you work out it was a vampire? I can't actually see anything - maybe put my specs on?



I'm saying nothing about the music or tank tops for that matter!



Manc - Topo and I had an *Annie love in* the other week. Shall we put you on the guest list for the next one? I think she's great!

And again ive only heard of a few of them.



"Why did you lie?"

14 @ sasha. The picture is Griffin and the others in the 'war room' at Stokers. The map is on the back wall. From ep1.

About Music according to SFX two tunes to listen out for are



The littlest Hobo theme music - Remember the pilot.



And



Another Brick in the wall. (check against becoming human)

17 @ ewan.



'Hey teacher, leave them kids alone'.

16 - Hiya BBD - hows you then? I'm obviously not looking at the same picture (I hope). OH thought it might be Sonic the Hedgehog - ok so he hasn't taken his tablets today! - but I can't make out what it is - even after being told.

disco nights in Paris..... ahhhhh..... fond memories

14 - The simple answer is speed reading + dyslexia = mistake.

About Annie taking stupid pills and that she trusts people too easily. There may be one point for her exoneration in this episode and this is Kirby mentioning Georges GQ magazine at the beginning. We know now that it was something only Nina could know from Annie´s point of view. So she had to believe that Kirby was really sent by Nina. And why shouldn´t you trust a man that your friend send to you?



How did Owen describe Annie in Series One? Did he say the same things to her as Kirby did in the last Episode?

what year did Kirby die?,wonder whether he went to a certain casino in Wigan.

1975 - In the opener.

19 Hey sasha, i'm all good. How about your good self?

I meant the other picture, did you click the link? It's the scene from ep1 when Griffin and other Vamps are sitting around a table discussing world domination and Cutler cuts in about 'raising an army on twitter'.

17 - Another Brick In The Wall, Pink Floyed



Love that song haha

21 - Oh right sorry, did you mean when he died?

25 - Good thanks. OK so I've obviously not clicked something I should've. I just don't *get* twitter - it freaks me out a bit. Will go and have another go?

26 - Have you checked the combination yet?



27 - Sort of.

29 - Combination?



You meen the sctrolls?



Cos if you do, No i havnt its to compitiaed

on YT

Aaarrrrghhh, I don't know what I'm doing wrong.

I am so.not.getting.a.picture.of.vampires when I look at that link. HELP!....please...

32. Sorry sasha, you can't see it because it's no longer there! Someone's removed it! Quick everyone, hide. They're on to us!

Ok I know this has been discussed before, it doesn't need to be again but i just found something when i was reading the character profiles(passing time waiting for the blog to load :D)

We know Ivan was an Old One who ran with Hal, Hettie and co. and who was well respected yeah? this is what I came across : "Make no mistake, Mitchell had done it all. As Herrick's right hand man, he experienced, and revelled in, a very dark past, with only Ivan coming anywhere near his legendary status in the vampire world."



Maybe it's just because I miss Mitchell, but I'd love to find a connection in the new storyline for him, or see him discussed in some way! Anyway, a bit sad but just thought I'd throw it in :D



22 - yeah I can't remember the exact words but he definitely said something to her along those lines like how it was so easy to kill her and get away with it cos she's nothing nobody misses her and he never really loved her, he used her. SUCH a nice guy!

33 - Oh thank goodness for that! I mean, I've only had one mojito - thought I'd lost it for a moment there! Thanks BBD!

35, Lol, just the one mojito? Nah, you're good. Although i find it all a bit disturbing that the pics been removed since i mentioned it.



I'm getting paranoid. Now, where did i put that tin foil hat?

Oh dear...I remember dancing to most of those in green satin flares!!

Don't think I've actually heard any of those songs, not that I know at least. Of course I've heard of most of the artists, but I guess I'm just to young.

And I'm with those defending Annie, yes she doesn't always make the right choices, but remember she was quite young when she died and Owen had broken her down so she was completely in his control. For any living person it would take years to recover from such abuse. Add to that being dead and your best friends are a werewolf and a vampire. I love the way Annie has been portrayed through out the series and definitely don't agree about her being on stupid pills.

I can't believe it, it is like Kirby was the dj of my work Christmas party !!!!

36 - LOL - tin foil hat - here you go, one I made earlier.



38 - Yipee - another Annie lover. Yup, unless you've been in the position of someone constantly putting you down, you will never know what that does to your confidence or your ability to properly judge people. I say - go Annie, you're FAB.

Ok this may sound a bit weird but did anyone notice a slight jealousy in hal when annie was with kirby? I'm not sure but it was just the little jealous looks and the sadness in his eyes that made me wonder, does hal like annie.. maybe even in a small way.. or maybe i'm wrong. It just seems that maybe he wanted kirby away from annie for a different reason. @@@@@@Spoilers@@@@@@



I have heard that hal will embrace some romance in this series and completely embarrass himself for a girl he fancies.

BTW what would be Hal's mixing tape? Mozart, Bach, and a bit of Coldplay?

And would he be a fan of the Hurdy Gurdy?

42 - Well certainly don't think there'd be any Morrissey in there, that's for sure :-)



41 - Yes, did detect something but not sure if it was jealousy for a friend he felt he was losing or something more.

@vampsrule

yeah I read it too, it was in a DM's interview, but I have the feeling it will be in the episode Puppy Love, when Hal and Tom go on a double date, you know it can't go right with this two, after the cafe chat-up bet!!

45 - Sorry but Hal and Tom go on a double date? How do we know that or are you surmising?

Also, Cutler being discussed at the last blog. I love what we've seen so far of him (and I do agree with whoever said on the last blog that he's easy on the eye). He's just so arrogant, cold and has some of the best lines. My favourite line so far has to be "As long as they know a werewolf baby's for life, not just for Christmas".

I think it was MancVamp saying that he looks like he's from the north of England? Well, let's just say there's a reason I've moved from Sweden to Manchester ;)

Going back to the Old Ones - much as I hate to steer the conversation away from mojitos and flares ;) - when Fergus lists the vampires who are scared of Hal he includes Ivan. I know the list might not have been exclusively Old Ones, but Fergus seems to talk about them as equal so they all seem to be important. But Ivan was recruited in 1815 and Fergus said this in 1855, so he only had 40 years to gain that much reputation. So maybe the 'Old One' status isn't entirely based on age (even though 40 does seem very young to even be considered). But if Ivan wasn't an Old One at the time, maybe this 'Jacob' isn't either? Maybe he was just a red herring or random namedrop that doesn't mean much?

45, yeah I spose, I can't wait for that episode.. guess I was just wishing for those two to get together so their could be another romance plus their my favourite characters!

@sasha, I don't know about that, The Smiths would suit Hal, no?



43-When the hurly-burly is done: Short Film featuring our lovely Damien, so maybe he has bring the moves to the Hal character LOL

i dont know any of those songs! only heaven must be missing an angel. how come the list is on the blog. is it just a bit of fun or is it a clue or something?





regarding someones comment on hal being jealous whe annie was with kirby- i dont think it was that. i think it was hal knowing what kirby was up to and was worried about the out come.



just read that interview @9 with craig roberts. he swears far too much!

46, im not sure what you meant there but I watched DM's interview clip and he said so and so

The Hurdy Gurdy in an old instrument with a very unique sound

Who couldn't love Annie? She's the heart of BH. Maybe she is a little too trusting but surely seeing the best in people can't be considered as a character fault?



Anyway, she can now come back as blue Annie and take anyone out. I don't think she'll be quite as trusting anymore!

48 - Hi Megan! It's always best if the conversation is steered away from mojitos. When Ivan introduced Daisy to Hetty he was deferential. Said something like 'but she's not like us'. She was way up the pecking order, I think. As much as I loved Ivan - and would love if he came back but I think he may be sunning (and working) in sunnier climes, I'm afraid. I don't think Ivan considered himself an OO or even coming anywhere close to one.

48- I think the OO status is by invitation. It must be something like a council of elders that rule the rest of the vampires. I still believe that could explain a bit of the mess with the characters so far. Maybe there was a time when only OO could make new vampires. WW blood being toxic could be only for certain OO that passed them on to their "children" but not all of them being affected??? Anyone else think the same?

Perhaps the status of Old One only goes to those recruited by an OO.



I seem to remember Ivan was held in high esteem by everyone in B.Edwards and Mitchell had him as the poster boy for staying clean.

52 - Oh right sorry, what it like a *spoiler* type interview - I don't go near them. Sorry wasn't inferring you'd made it up - just not everyone reads all the interviews incase they include *spoilers*.



Cheers.



50- Ah, The Smiths - mmmm maybe - will need to think about that a bit more. In fact maybe I should go stick some of the music on just to check....

@bigbaddog 54- well im a lot like annie in that sense and yes your right, its not a bad thing to be nice! my friends (of 15yrs!!) wouldnt change me for the world.

45@ notamanofgod. Just as a heads up, if you're gonna mention a spoiler you really should include a spoiler warning.



*****************SPOILER WARNING**************



Just for future reference. :)

56@ Thats a good point, maybe Old Ones are physically different from other vampires (lol, I'm thinking of pure-bloods from Harry Potter now... ). Because to recruit a new vampire, they have to drink the infector's vampiric blood. So, theoretically, if the infector has a specific werewolf blood allergy, would that allergy pass on to the infectee?

Thanks, BigBadDog, still learning the ropes of blogging

Just a silly question that needs to be asked but what exactly makes the OO's so significant, special, important, better than the rest?

61-Well it is a nice theory, lets see what LT actually did. The OO don't come until almost the end, we will have some explanations then I hope!!

62@ notamanofgod, no worries.





63@ Vampsrule. Probably the older they are the closer they are to the original two Vampires. Which would make them purer or less diluted. Thats my guess anyway.

oh look what ive found about the old ones!!!!!

==========may contain spoilers===========



wwwbeinghuman.wikia.com/wiki/theoldones



dont know how to put the link up. it says the oo are extremely powerful, they opperate through a hierachical system based on age and it had a list of oo.

wyndam

ivan

jacob

mr snow

@66 hal and hettie are there too i forgot to put them on.! it was hals blood lust that made him rise in the ranks- im still reading the page just got to tell you all-go look!!!

p.s that site i mentioned @66 tells you all about the other vampires too.

Wouldn't it be cool if one of the OO turns out to be somebody from the fairy tales? Oh The stepmother of Snow White, that demanded the heart to be returned to her in a jar! That would kill to birds with the same stone, superpowerful female vampire and a link to fairy tales!!!! Oh please LT make it happen!!

@50/58

I would love it if Hal listened to The Smiths, but classical music seems more his style. And for me The Smiths and Being Human only mean one person (ghost), Gilbert.

70- Yup - Gilbert - Smiths - match made in heaven! Hal and The Smiths - think some serious damage would be done.........

34: oarelle - I would say there is a link to Mitchell. What with the box tunnel 20 back on the agenda and Annie is constantly making references to her missing friends

Hal may take literally the instructions of "Panic", and no club or pub in Wales would be safe for any DJ any more

ive had a little read about the oo and its the blood lust/rampage reputation which makes you an oo, also the oo operate on a hierachichal age scale. they have more powers eg they dont need permission to enter a house (wyndam did it in s3)



cutler was turned by wyndam or herrick.

74- I think Wyndham.

oh my gosh!! if you go to that web address i gave you it tells you everyhing nearly. im just reading about the future woman. i wont put what ive read on here because it is spoilers and some people dont like it do you?

I still can't find the page, if anyone has found it can they give me a link

lol at heaven must be missing an angel. sense of humor.

77- BBD said earlier that they'd removed it. We are not going crazy....no we are not....they are just messing with our minds.......here have this tin foil hat I made earlier.........:-)

https://beinghuman.wikia.com/wiki/Old_Ones



this is the link to the page. if you keep clicking on bits you can find all the characters information/bio.

Yeah it has been completely wiped off Twitter, must have been something we weren't supposed to know about. They control Everything!!!

66 - that link/address didn't work for me :C Is it supposed to be a page on "https://community.wikia.com" ?



Leanneloveschoc maybe you could help or post the link you used if it's diffierent please? I am so very curious!:D

Just watching the start of Ep 4 again and little Billy looks like he could be Bernie's younger brother (S1E5). Bernie was played by Mykola Allen but little Billy was uncredited.

Thank you Leanneloveschoc! This info will pacify me til the next blog post :D

47. Notamanofgod. I would love to see Coldplay on Hals playlist. That would make me love the character more!

51. Leanne, I know right!! He swears way too much!

81. neardyalice. What picture was it?



I have just found out that Griffen was an oo. Did everyone else know or was I having a blonde moment?

80-That site is great! Thanks Leanne!! I really should go and start cooking dinner!!!!! but I can't, I am hooked to the wiki site!!!!

I have found one pic on @lycurious

pic.twitter.com/lgo4mFHa I hope this link works



ill try to find the other one once my phone hurries up (on twitter on phone)

85 Lozzie- Think about it, "Fix you" screams Hal and Leo, "Paradise" is HH obviously, "In my place", "Clocks", humm maybe Coldplay are vampires!

85 - "The rest of the Old Ones will arrive."

Proof that Kirby was evil: no Bowie on that playlist!

There are unfortunate tapes of me singing tunelessly along with some of those songs while my parents laugh at me. My uncle had a disco and played all this stuff, dressed like Kirby too! God I feel old after this. ;)

85. It was a really blurry picture of the meeting at stokers in Ep1 posted by Lycurious. I didn't think Griffin was an OO either, I thought he wasn't ranked as highly as Wyndam.



I'm avoiding that page, I like coming up with bizzare theories too much!

88. Funny you should say that, was listening to Viva la Vida today and heard the lyrics "sword and shield" immediately thought of Hal.

91 - Gosh you got to see that too? Was it only me and lozzie that couldn't see it?

92- yeah it is like the soundtrack to his life!!

"That was when I ruled the world

It was the wicked and wild wind

Blew down the doors to let me in.

Shattered windows and the sound of drums"

91: agree with you the specualtion is more fun than the spoilers.



Re: Hal's playlist: Miserere Mei, Deus, I can see Hal getting into all the guilt, somehow.

He's obviously going to have a lot of Leo's old favourites on there too, as a reminder.

Hmm this is bad I can see me thinking about this too much!

95 @Oletaolyta-- hum not sure about the Miserere, I think more something like Vivaldi's four seasons, he likes his order Hal and there is nothing more orderlike that a piece in chronological order x)

93. I think they took it down pretty quickly after the link was put on the previous blog, the only pic on there now is of the wolf marionette puppet.



94. Think that whole album has a vampish vibe, not that i'm listening to it right now or anything-that would be obsessive!;)

cemeteries of london - at night they would go walking till the breaking of the day. 42- those who are dead are not dead there just living in my head. I think you're right about Coldplay!

more on coldplay This for Mitchell: wherever you are, I miss you



"Lights go out and I can't be saved

Tides that I tried to swim against

You've put me down upon my knees

Oh I beg, I beg"

Please don't discuss these spoilers on the blog. Some bloggers prefer not to know!

88. I wouldnt have noticed that the songs could be to do with vamps.

89. Thank you Ewan. I wouldnt have noticed that. I must have been having a blonde moment!

92 nerdyalice. Ill have to listen out for that..now listening to it.

92, 97 Good thing i bought a coldplay cd the other day.



Thank you BigBadDog for the links!
