Being Human Returns February 5th

We brought you the season four trailer for the Beeb’s brilliant supernatural drama Being Human and now we can reveal the show is set to return February 5, at 9pm on BBC Three. Wahoo!

The premier episode, entitled “Eve of the war”, picks up following the gripping series three finale, with the gang returning to their home in Barry Island to deal with the aftermath. But the gang don’t have time to mourn for long - the Old Ones are coming.

Despite the show’s recent woes (departures of original characters Russell Tovey and Aidan Turner – sob!), series creator Toby Whithouse isn’t deterred, saying: “As ever, Being Human lives or dies on the strength of the characters and the cast, and that’s why I think this series is our strongest yet.

“Damien Molony joins the team as Hal. Hand on heart, I think he’s one of the most exciting and versatile actors of his generation. Watching his performance grow over the filming was a joy.

“Then there’s Michael Socha. Promoted from semi-regular to lead. If you thought he was good in series 3, wait till you see what he does in series 4. Michael will break your heart this year.

And he couldn’t fail to mention his leading lady and GG♥SF favourite Lenora Crichlow, who plays ghost Annie: “And of course beautiful Lenora. Our star. The heart of the show. This year she gives a truly breathtaking performance.”

Can’t wait, Toby. 

Check out the teaser trailers for Annie, and newcomers, Hal and Tom. (FYI: we’re forming a bit of crush on a certain Michael Socha.)
