Supernatural drama Being Human returns to BBC Three for a fourth series next month.

Following the gripping Series 3 finale in which viewers watched Mitchell fall victim to the wolf-shaped bullet, the new series sees the aftermath as the housemates return to their home in Barry Island.

Here we find out more about the show’s revamped leading trio…

Tom (Michael Socha)

Werewolf Tom has spent his life on a mission: to kill vampires. In Series 3, Tom discovered that not only was his father, McNair, not his real dad, but that he was the one who gave him the werewolf curse.

Since McNair’s death, Tom has stayed in Barry and is welcomed into Honolulu Heights. Putting his nomadic life and his mission to kill all vampires (mostly!) behind him, Tom has to learn to live like a human, love like a human and fight like a human. But will he succeed?

Hal (Damien Molony)

Hal has been a vampire for over 500 years and the temptation for blood and carnage still rules his every waking thought. Since meeting best friends Leo (a werewolf) and Pearl (a ghost) in 1955, Hal has managed to stay off the blood by sticking to a rigid structure and keeping away from all people. Coming to Honolulu Heights is a huge disruption for Hal. And he doesn’t cope well with disruption.

At first, Hal – the stand-offish, posh vampire – and Tom – the common, feral werewolf – find themselves at loggerheads, but once a mutual respect is gained, we see this odd couple become close.

Annie (Lenora Crichlow)

Annie has been a ghost since her fiancé killed her back in 2007, but since then she’s seen more of life than ever before. She’s defied death’s door, been to Purgatory and back, discovered her lover (Mitchell) was responsible for the murder of twenty innocent people and watched as he was killed by best friend George.

In this series, Annie is more than ever the matriarch of Honolulu Heights, left holding the baby with the fate of the world in her hands.
