Finally we have got to know our third generation of f**ked-up anti-heroes and it’s actually been a fairly fascinating journey.
It’s always a tough question in television: when should you stop? Do you continue for as long as you can stave off jumping the shark and then disappear in a cloud of mediocrity? Or do you announce a final series and do your darndest to make it the best yet?
Slipping out with little fanfare, oh the irony, is a new “mockumentary” (no, stick with us) from BBC Four following the Olympic Deliverance team as they prepare London for the big event in 2012.
The third series of Being Human has been quite a roller-coaster ride, and the finale is no different.
‘So you read minds as well as cure them, do you?’, an angry parent snaps at Doctor Gabriel Monroe in the second instalment of ITV1’s new medical drama series.
Despite giving the initial impression of being a few mood swings away from the original gang’s Cassie, Grace Violet has firmly secured her position as one of the fans’ favourites from this year’s new Skins generation.
The second episode of Professor Brian Cox’s compelling story of the universe takes us onward from philosophy to methodology, explaining how the building blocks of everything on planet Earth – including ourselves – can be found in the hearts of stars thousands of light years away.
It’s the penultimate episode of Series 3 (so soon?!) and all the pieces are moving into place for an explosive finale.
Following on from 2010’s acclaimed Wonders Of The Solar System, Professor Brian Cox ramps up the expectation level with this new series, looking at the whole universe and its relation to us, our lives and the fundamental questions we have about our existence.
“I don’t care if they’re one-legged dead hermaphrodites – I need sex, soon!” From the off, we always saw Alo as the subtle one: calm, respectable and mature… Yeah, right.
