I thought that it was the cross that made the smoke, not the silver. And the craxy spike was on a wooden or stone one, I thought?
Hey, preaching to the choir. I thought our Lady of the Perpetual Sea Breeze was the real deal until the Divine Miss J walked right through that door and right into my ass—which is where my heart is…physiologically. I could show you an x-ray.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I swear we've had this conversation before.
Not in this thread, and not with this precise group of people.

You're acting as if we've never rehashed/beaten a topic into the ground. Are you new here :)?

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
for the record, Romero didn't use the word 'zombie' in his movies... I haven't seen the last two or three so I'm not sure if that's changed.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
In Being Human, there's been no reference to silver...even in the context of Werewolves, actually, as far as I remember. What they did have reference to was other symbols of faiths(Star of David, but not always. Intention is key), and that the spoken words of scripture have some effect, as well (which raises whole other questions, but that's neither here nor there).
It's interesting that silver and iron are often vulnerabilities for supernatural entities. I know there's symbolism behind them, but those are ones that tend to be forgotten/ignored often as well...I'd bet that they're ignored more in visual media, as you have to be more careful in your prop and costume choices (see above conversation). However, I have few to no data points to back that up
