So what you're saying is, I need to watch this? :)

Yes, yes that is exactly what I'm saying. I NEED SOMEONE TO SQUEEMAIL DAMNIT! *ahem*

You will LOVE it, I am SURE. It's hot!vampire and adorkable!werewolf trying to help each other be "normal" by curling up on the sofa eating biscuits whilst their dead fag hag makes tea. There is already bloodlust-makes-them-do-it! fanfic out there, Katie. What more could you ask for?

I wasn't that enamoured of the episode myself, although the actor who played Tully did a good job of making my skin crawl.

I told you the Kirking would begin in the second episode, btw. If they go down the Annie/Mitchell route I quit.

It wasn't as good as the last one, but I still loved it. Tully was horrible and there wasn't enough core group interaction but second episodes are often a bit rubbish.

My definition of Kirking is probably faulty, but I didn't think this could really count. Next week doesn't look promising, though.

Annie/Mitchell would make me quit too. I don't like the idea of Annie/Anyone, really. She's a ghost! Just because it's a bbc3 adult, genre, drama series, doesn't mean EVERYONE has to have sex with everyone else! I swear, Torchwood has a lot to answer for.

I think they're going to end up trying to force Annie and Mitchell together, because they can touch each other but Mitchell can't kill her.

That would make me sad. And be ridiculously contrived. Which makes it frighteningly likely. Come on, show, be worthy of my weird and sudden infatuation with you!

Wasn't Annie's grim grey Flashdance cardigan replaced with an equally grim grey top? Perhaps she kept dipping the long dangly front bits in her cups of tea.

Also I was amused when they started watching the DVD and Annie's like ARGH! Vampire pr0n! and covers her eyes - but only for a nanosecond, and then carries on watching. Haha.

And man. Changing into a werewolf looks painful. Give the boy a few ibuprofen!

I *think* that she just took the cardi off, and the grey top she was just wearing under the cardi in the last ep. That cardigan was... weird.

I loved that Annie couldn't really decide whether she wanted to watch the vampire!pr0n! or not!

Poor George. The way Mitchell's voice over described how it ought to kill him but doesn't made it sound even more excrutiating than it already looked! Also, I've seen Russel Tovey naked in this show so much that he's starting to look weird to me when he has clothes on...

Ha yeah, naked George is one thing, but I think they're just into gratituous buttcrack shots now. Let's see how many we can get into one episode!

It's getting a bit like Primeval and the Hannah Spearrit Pants Watch! Good times.

i heart being human. it was VERY gay this week though. i loved the "yeah, but he's my twat!" "i'm sure that sounded better in your head" bit.

george is very adorable still, and i know that if i met a guy like mitchell i wouldn't find him sexy at all but the mere fact that he's a vampire suffering from annericeitis makes him incredibly sexy. yet that type of vampire wasn't sexy when it was David Boreanaz as Angel, strange no?

I kinda want to save annie from the world and everything in it, she's just really really cute ^_^

I think Mitchell is hotter because he gets to be smiley and happy fairly often. I love his enthusiasm for fitting in, and really giving it a go. And the way he mocks George. He does still have some optimism. Angel was fairly glum most of the time. Or at least very subdued. Except for later on in ATS...

George NEEDS HUGS NAO! Every time he's on screen I squee in omg-so-adorkable glee.

good point, Angel always was a moody bastard. i think that's why i only like him when he's evil or in the last season of Angel. incidentally i bought the follow on comic today ^_^

anyways yeah. seriously LOVING being human ^_^

Ooh, you'll have to tell me if it's any good. I've been after it but couldn't find it in paperback anywhere!
