I love how Hal said, 'Heres an idea. Order something or get out'. when she called Tom simple.
It showed he had Toms back. Tom is so naive and innocent he didn't deserve that. Reminded me of Steinbecks 'Of mice and men'.

Soooo... just picking up where the last blog left off....
I thought that when Fergus called Hal 'Lord' or 'my Lord' he did it in a slightly mocking, almost sneering, way at first. And then he saw the look in Hal's eyes and decided not to push it. So I am going with those that said Hal somehow 'became' a Lord, because Hal did say in the prequel that he was born in a brothel and didn't know his father. But that doesn't tie in with the 'Lord Harry' title or Hal's near break-down in the café when Michaela throws money at him and his speech then. But neither of these things tie in with the 'competition' as to who has done the worst job - Hal mentioned some really bad jobs there! But ultimately, and this is the fun bit, there is just soooo much to find out about Hal! Complexity of characterisation is what Lord Toby does best.
No way are we ever going to find out everything we want to know about Hal in this Series alone.

It's not really fair on the BH fans in USA/Canada - they don't see the first Ep until this Sunday and they have stayed away from the Blog because of spoilers. They will want to comment when they get here and won't be able to... I know the BBC don't like to keep a lot of Blogs open at the same time because Mods are pretty stretched - but we've always been fairly good here - I mean in the last 4 years there has only ever been one spammer banned and in comparrison to other Blogs that's amazing. And in all that time only one Blog was closed for comments. Just saying..... I don't know how these things work - but if the BBCUK make money from BBCA and BBCAustralia/NZ and by Netflix and selling it to other countries - then surely everyone should get to see the whole package? Oh well, like I said, don't really know how this business works...
Anyway, where was I? Oh yes, love the idea that Cutler was sired by Wydham - (but not Hal) just love it - Cutler seems to be the type and I also like the idea that vamps were just 'putting up with him' because of that. It now makes more sense as to why Fergus and crew just 'ate the focus group' and Cutler was helpless. But I agree that we need to know a bit more about him - he justs seems like a bit of a non-entity to me right now. I don't really 'get' him.

of Herrick when Hal says I am not the man I used to be...
Annie now with two powers: able to transfer her memory and do not tell me she is not able to do that on reverse. Read auras and minds
Tom being into bees
Regus finally able to score ... well woon, clearly his jeans are going to be less vulnerable.
Michaela ; well she had to become un-dead and she knew too much and loved Ivan and Daisy touch.
Loved the old lady at the end, quiet dignity , not worried at all to cross over, eager to carry on her long life in the most normal of way. A very subliminal message from TW.
And a final bow to the previous trio. 'con men' says Hal, good bye Real Hustle when a vampire and a werewolf were trying to get a house, a job and a tv license and were dressed in 'other people's clothes'. Con men, George who pretended not to be a werewolf , who denied the wolf and Mitchell who looked for salvation. You are a shark, be a shark said Herrick. Annie who tried so much; not to be a ghost, not to remember reality, prefering lies in season 1, unsure about being a ghost and finally looking for love, a dead woman for an un-dead man. Madness.
New supernatural trinity, wiser.
Now it is the turn of the Antique Roadshow, with ancient scrolls, a werewolf who has no shame or fear of being what he is anf why should he. Tom is a nice guy. Annie accepts she is a spirit and now tries to be an immaculate protective holy ghost as for Hal, his past is doomed to haunt him.
TW has really opened a new arc in his universe. Still, we are missing a new kind of sort of supernatural...

Tom's 'swimming pool'? Sure hes mentioned it in previous ep:

- Love the pool filled with Holy water idea or a moat full around HH. (where would he get so much H/water? from the cathedral when he was there nickin' Lead off the Roof
Tom and Hal are a great pair, remind me of my elder cubs: Squabling one minute then defending each other the next.

Posted this in the Live Blog comments as well but just to shamelessly plug further - my full review of The Graveyard Shift here - https://bit.ly/xsoi0j
Got to admit in all honesty, I thought it was a bit too slow at first, but by the end it had completely won me over, great humour and really strengthened the relationships between the characters. Michaela was a bit *too* much on occasion for me, fitting with the tone of the episode, but not much depth to her. Didn't dislike her but didn't love her either basically!
Really loving Lord Harry though!
I did do my review last week as well, a bit later than normal thanks to that pesky real life 'job' thing, but then promptly forgot to post it anywhere. So if anyone wants to check that out too see here --> https://bit.ly/wPvxpT

13 - Cornish Doggie - yep was going to say that next - no-one has mentioned the fact that Tom keeps on and on about making bombs... but I think that either Tom or Hal will get a burnt arm - BUT I also agree that 'burnt arm' refers to something different. We'll never see it, though. Did any of us get that Regus and Michaela would walk off into the sunset together from the cartoon drawing? Nope.
continued...
I thought Lenora Crichlow was excellent in this Ep. And all her scenes were so well-written - really great work from the writer Jamie Mathieson - and I hope he writes more Eps. But Mark Williams as Regus was wonderful! And so funny!
Best bits for me were:
Regus: " You love a doorstep row, dun't yer? Do you really want to go into this right now?"
Annie: "Before I go into the weird vampire's house - yes!"
-----
Regus: "You need to get out of town, especially as they know she's alive. You need to go and hide somewhere in the middle of nowhere - go to Bangor..."
haahhahahhhhaaaaaa! That last one was THE line of the Ep for me! I bet the script editor Laura Cotton put that one in!

Didn't expect Hal to be Fergus maker, but I have been thinking, and still thinks, that he might be Cutler's maker. If he is that could explain a bit of the rivality we saw between Fergus and Cutler, both trying to be the "best" heir.
I do agree with those thinking that Hal's maker was Mr Snow, that would explain why he isn't scared of Hal as the rest.
Also noticed that the next episode is called "A Spectre Calls". And yes, spectre could just be another word for ghost, but after searching it on wikipedia I'm thinking it might be a clue about Kirby. As people have mentioned there are a lot of references to different superheroes/comics in BH and I think this might be another one : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectre_%28comics%29 Of course I don't think it's gonna be the Spectre from DC Comics showing up, but there could be some clues as to who Kirby is and what he wants.
Saw in the comments on one of the blogs that someone else as well have finally noticed that future woman's door is the door to HH.
Really liked the touch with the Real Hustle at the end of the episode.

Have you noticed Regus gave the same longing look to the beach poster on the wall, as did Mitchell in the Lia episode. The poster is significant. Paradise Lost. No, I have not read Milton, but possibly there is something in it about the storyline...
As for shapeshifting... Lia's surname, in case this was overlooked was Shaman. Shamans do shapeshifting. Her brother could 'feel' the future. Is it Lia's return? She would know about Nina etc. She knew how to tune her telly quite expertly. Her interventions caused many policemen deaths if you care to remember the sequences.

I don't think Kirby is there just out of curiousity. I think he will be bad news.

Nina is the one she knew least about therefore the one to say the message is from.

Just passing in lunch break, good to see a bit of normallity when T, A and E went shopping (some eps seem to have so much chaos you wander how they get time to shop.

58 - Thanks Ewan, I get it now. But why would he need to mention Nina's name at all. Either she has sent him or he's up to no good - or both. I don't think it's just curiousity - he is here for a purpose.
So the BT20 coroner is saying there is a cannibal link as the killer had human flesh in his stomach. Well that isn't true is it - the didn't get the killer. What's going on then?

excellent suggestion
building a swimming pool might need a building application being granted
and thus at risk of being found out
now transforming the cage old pool into a decoy for unsuspected vampires that would be cunning and very good from Tom

Have checked previous blog and get where you're coming from. Was forgetting that the vamps are more or less clearing every *human* police person from the face of the earth (or the Bristol / Barry / Cardiff area anyway).
It is a bit of a stretch thought to say publically that the murderer was a cannibal than to say he was a ww. Cannibal - disgusting but public would believe it. WW - not so much. Unless this would be the start of a long process of feeding the public duff info?

well two things
the poor guy who got the label as bt20 was innocent. was he... unless he was another werewolf from another cage fight -sacrificed by his 'owners' and werewolves would have human flesh in their insides, right?
secondly
the BT20 victims had numerous bites and I remember a disturbing sight of a disemboweled victim. As such, it does not require a stretch of imagination to the coroner to sort of add up:
victim- human bites and saliva
supposed killer: same saliva- thanks to tweaked results by Cutler and human flesh inside- it was a werewolf after a change
and Mitchell killed during a change right?

Now from the trail for next weeks episode I thought that perhaps 'Jason Healy' could have been a werewolf. That had been caged then released by the Vampires only to be gunned down. Now here is another point, Mitchell and Daisy had their little Rampage on a Full Moon. Now as we clever bloggers know if indeed the Box Tunnel had been the work of a Werewolf then things would have been different.
1.Cloths found near the scene.
2.When the Maintenance man arrived – if still at night a trapped werewolf would of torn his head off.
3.Werewolves show up on camera – Strange shadowy form was not seen.
4.The bodies were mutilated but not eaten.
These are things that PR boy Cutler is going to change as I see it.
1.Random report added to or evidence of cloths found. To explain how they found Mr Healy.
2.Time of Maintenance man's arrival with possible removal of witness.
3.A bit of Jiggery Pokery on the video.
4.Reports change when the police change.
This is what He's going to do. Shift the species blame. A few more well placed stories/set ups and we have torches and pitch forks pointing in the wrong direction as the back of the mob is picked off one by one.
Additional thoughts.
an episode title coming up is called
"Hold the front page"
Oh and a Re-watch = know the name.

@yekim
why would Lia become nice???
was she convinced by Annie or now has she closed the Mitchell file and opened the vampires files???
Or possibly she considers G/N/A and thus Eve as partly responsible for her fate.
See in the past the blood feuds/ faidhes from times past where endless wars were waged ending up by everybody dead
Nina took George away from Micthell causing Mitchell to lose balance
George was an unattantive friend
Eve is their daughter, parents bad; child bad.
Annie deserted Mitchell etc etc by now using her powers to realize Kemp had a poor aura and Lucy was lying and Annie could have rentaghosted and stopped the BT20....

so we can imagine it has not happen yet but when the saviour and his/her nemesis meet, there will be the trace of an old fire

Okaaay - boy this discussion is good - about the 'man with the burnt arm' -
It can't be a ghost and it can't be a vamp, can it? Because when you see a ghost you don't see the terrible injuries that killed them. You can't see how Annie's skull was cracked open or that young policeman in S3 Ep8 - the one covered in blood, killed by Herrick, the one that Annie goes through his door with to see Lia. Nada.
And with vamps it's the same - you can't see Michaela's slashed neck once she is a vampire - so neither of these will show a burnt arm.
So the 'man with a burnt arm' could only be a human or a werewolf orrrrrrrrrr a type 4 (zombie).
88- Robin - that is genius.
Ewan, let me see if I've got this right - Cutler's idea is to tell humans about Werewolves so that they will be so scared that they will actually ASK vamps to help rid the world of them. In order to do this, Cutler has taken the BT20 story and twisted it to suggest that Healy was actually a werewolf. Is that what you are saying? (you know I don't read spoilers - takes all the fun away from playing on the blog, soooo...).
