I might be alone, but I love Hal. that scene in the third ep where the two of them bet to see who could get a girl's number? classic!

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I mostly lost interest in UK Being Human, but I'm intrigued. Somebody spoil me: did they all die? Except for Annie, I know she's still around and ghostly. And what happened to Nina's baby?

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Yes. Mitchell at the end of last series, Nina over hiatus, and George in the premiere
George and Nina's baby is still around and not a werewolf (she's the "War Child"). We had a flash forward to the war with the vampires. There's a prophecy, and a whole thing. Upshot is, she died in the future, and is now trying to get herself killed as a baby, as that, apparently, is how she'll save the world.

Thanks, DebetEsse. I'm glad to know; now I can never watch the series ever and not regret it.

we actually don't know that the flash forward is supposed to be the baby. it's heavily implied, but never stated outright.
honestly, i was worried about the new series because i'd kind of stopped caring about it last season. this reboot is really clever and the new guys are great. very anti-George and Mitchell.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Fair point, tiggy. It's weird that they haven't said one way or the other on who she is. If it's Eve, then that's hardly surprising. If it's not, I don't know who else it would be (no one we've met, presumably).
I do wonder about the fate of Our Heroes in the flash-forward.

I was halfway through series 3, and I'm not sure I'm motivated to finish it now.

Sorry, Dana.
If it helps, it sounds like Mark Gatiss will be showing up later this series.

Dana,
I think the season finale for BH Season 3 is incredibly. Really raw, emotional fitting.
It would have been a fitting end to the series. I think you should (at minimum) finish the series.
I have only seen 2 eps of 4, so I can't yet comment. The second ep of 4 left me in tears (allergies maybe), so I hope I don't continue to be a wreck the rest of the series.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
So I just read this (horrendous) article about religious objection to same sex marriage in the UK: [link] by the country's most senior Catholic. Note to the choir--avoid the comments.
Anyway--I wanted to be sure of GB's laws--civil partnership is okay, but not religious weddings? Church weddings? Some church weddings? I'm not fully sure of the distinction between legal union and marriage that's being drawn at the start of the heinous diatribe, which goes on to draw way too close a parallel between gay marriage and slavery.
