Being Human

The second in BBC3's one off drama series (== pilot shows) was Being Human. (The first was Phoo Action.)

Being Human is the story of a Vampire, who is mates with a Werewolf, they decide to get a flat together and find that it's inhabited by a Ghost.

Surprisingly it was a lot better than it sounds. It stole from everywhere (one particular scene was very American Werewolf In London) but managed to make it feel interesting. It made me laugh. It had  large logical inconsistencies. It contained some emotion. And it starred Adrian "Mickey Stone" Lester as a Vampire bad guy.

It left me wanting a series, so I think that's a success.

You can watch it on the BBC iPlayer. Interestingly BBC3 has also started broadcasting it's programmes online, at the same time they are shown on normal TV. True multi-channel delivery. I think they call that "simulcast" but that sounds silly.
