It may be a long wait until the next series of Being Human, the surprise smash hit BBC Three show about a house-sharing trio of ghost, vampire and werewolf, but SFX Blogger Narin Bahar has some good news that should help fill the gap:

Being Human Unearthed

For Being Human fans desperately waiting for the second series there is a little glimmer of televisual joy hitting the screens next weekend.

In celebration of the success of the first series, BBC Three has commissioned a special one hour documentary, which will be shown on Saturday 28 March at 9.15pm.

Being Human: Unearthed (do you see what they did there?) will include exclusive behind the scenes interviews with the actors who portray some of the show's best loved characters, including - obviously - Aidan Turner (Mitchell), Russell Tovey (George), Lenora Crichlow (Annie) but also Jason Watkins (Herrick), Annabel Scholey (Lauren) and Sinead Keenan (Nina) which should make it unmissable viewing for anyone who loves Being Human.

The show also features a new interview with series creator and writer Toby Whithouse who - having already spilled the beans about some of what we can expect from series two will hopefully give us more of an insight into where the show goes next.

As well as the specially-produced documentary, BBC Three will be screening the first three episodes of series one, with the final three shown the following Saturday. So if you missed this fab show first time round (or want to convince someone else to give it a try) this is the time to catch up - just buy a takeaway, get in your tipple of choice and settle down for Being Human Night.

SFX has rarely seen such a positive reaction to a show on our forum as we did to Being Human. So if you are one of the few who missed out on this show first time around, we wholeheartedly agree with Narin that his is the best opportunity to catch up.
