My name is Kerensa Creswell-Bryant, and I’m a
Being Human addict. There, I’ve said it. Since the first trailer for series one aired back in 2009, I’ve been under the series’ spell. After all what is there not to love about a high-concept comedy-drama based on the controversies of the human condition and the mystical lore trappings of a ghost, werewolf and vampire cohabiting in a two-up, two-down in Bristol? Not to mention a cast of three of the UK’s most talented rising stars and hot off the press confirmation that there is to be a spin-off?
Possibly two of the sharpest dressers ever to have graced The Space stage and both with impressive links to the
Doctor Who franchise, actor David Morrissey and
Being Human writer Toby Whithouse charmed us and edified us with their personal ascents to stellar heights…
The writer, the pun and the agoraphobic ghost
Suited, booted and looking dapper in suit and tie, creative virtuoso Toby Whithouse comes across as a natural to the limelight, as he is passed a mic and begins an evening with us at Komedia, Brighton. BBC Three, the channel that deems itself ‘The digital TV channel that’s never afraid to try something new’ has stood up to its title, having given great support to Toby and
Being Human, since the initial pilot stage which, although initially pipped to the commissioning post by another series (
Phoo Action, anyone?), was received so well by the UK viewers it caused an online frenzy, setting chat forums and message boards aflame with such lust even Nosferatu and his pallid tones would have blushed.
