Has anyone seen this? It came on late last year and has returned and finished? its 2nd season


Not your normal fare, but I have been watching it since it aired,  Saturdays on BBCA

Top tip: don't bother with the US remake, due on SyFy, despite Jeremy/Anna being allowed to work on the screenplays.

Season 3 of the original will begin January next year.

I'm not usually a "fan" of contemporary cultural interpretations of vampires, but what can I say? Mitchell is one helluva kick ass mofo.

  I have seen an advertisement about this.  I am considering watching it.

I like this show also, it aired on BBCA, one of my favorite channels now, as a matter of fact the Doctor Who christmas episode will be airing on Dec 25th just like in the UK


I will not watch the US version, I am sure it will be complete drivel just like all the other UK shows the US has tried to make a remake of

I would not watch the US version of the great classic "The Prisoner"...... the US IMO just needs to leave great UK shows alone, can you believe they even have a US version of "Top Gear"   blaaaaaa rubbish

Yes M   DV is right on this one, you need to give it a watch, usually before the new seasons air they will play reruns a lot to promote the show, hopefully you have the BBCA channel

Great Cast..... I like Anne,George and Mitchell

The US version has a good cast. So I may give it a peek. But I have yet to see an American version of a British made show that was any good. Did anyone ever see the American Pilot of Red Dwarf? or when they tried to bring Dr Who back in the 90s with a tv movie in the US? Ok thats was actualy quite good, but Red Dwarf still stands. I never found the Office Funny no matter what version it was. I think the UK should do the same. We should make a version of House based in London with Dr House played by an Engl....... Oh wait. Lol.
