THE ANNIE BROADCASTS CONTINUE

Wow! I wasn't expecting that.

Annie, are you ok? :'(

I think I therefore know something about the being human death

Reincarnation.

bare with me - now as the ghosts have to deal with unfinished business before they can pass over. Effectively putting their past lives behind them and moving from the past to the future.
also Her description of the waiting room (ep 8) 'people disappear and we're not aloud to talk about them' (it's been a while since last view so may not be 100% accurate quote)
when Ghosts are fully empty of their life they can move on to the next.

So reincarnation - as always there is a good chance I'm wrong so call me on it if you want.

Hold on Annie remember who you are.

What if she forgets who she is when Mitchell comes to rescue her? Maybe the series will begin with them trying to remind her of the Annie she used to be - perhaps minus all the Owen stuff?

ewan (3) - It might explain the move to Barry - a fresh start and all that?

oh I wish I could see this.. I'll still have to wait..
this Annie viralis really sucking me into it.. poor Annie, are you ok?

Aww this is heartbreaking - poor Annie!!!
Really dont know what to make of it all. She looks crazy in parts of the vid :(
Brilliant!

4 - So Annie are you OK? Are you Annie? Annie type scenario very interesting.

Still small note BHP can you confirm whether there will be a screening for S3 As this scream of time in front of us not knowing is not very hard on the nerves.

Awww, poor Annie. Keep hold of what's true.

ewan (3)who knows if it's right, but I love your idea of a ghost having to be fully empty of life before they can move on. I sometimes wonder if Mitchell ever went back to the battlefields of WWI how many ghosts would he see there? There could be thousands...

8 - Did I not explain empty of their life not empty of life - in effect all but their soul remains who they were is scoured from them - the core self, who they are remains however the same.

that help or hinder?

About the battle fields my take on that is that only a few at most would remain those who hold on too hard to their rage or pain at what happened to them how they were used by petty fools etc. most however those who condemned them to death would be dead by now so they would be able to move on.

Poor Annie. :(
I hope she does continue to remember who she is.

Ooohh! A new vid today too, yesss!
So what happens on the 16th then? Broadcast date is announced, promo's released, screening date announced (ewan)??? I really am loving these Annie broadcasts, they're genius and soo sad.

11 - screening screening screening

But of course if there is no screening I can live with that, or at least once the hangovers gone.

On the 16th I am thinking there will be something in the way of a big revelation. Even larger than Nina's surname.Pickering,
Something that might even warp our fragile little minds. until then in candle light we tune the TV to static hoping to see one more glimpse.

Trying to make out the interferrence on the broadcasts. In my mind I heard Sykes, a long shot I know, its fun guessing though

Oh Annie. Absolutely heart-breaking. Thank you BHP for jolting our emotions and reminding us (as if we needed it) of how we felt when Annie was dragged through The Door

Nice to see the count-down to Series 3 starting and love the 'little-bit-each-day' messages but I do have to confess that I suspect these are going to get rather repetitive if they continue like this till January - Lenora is a great actress but you can only do so much with an empty, silent cage.....please can we also see a little of the strong, plotting Annie who saved her friends from Kemp :)

A really nice thing about Lloyd's broadcasts last year is that each covered a different bit of the supernatural canon or told a little mini story so we had some variety; are we able to get that from Annie? or is she trapped in that cage till rescue comes?

Good point Annie Had to know that her friends were in trouble so can she still see then. Will she still be able to see them can she see what their doing or how they're trying to help her. Will she be able to tell us all about their different species or about others of their species who are closing in on them and can she warn them in time?

the new message is up for today more details about the forms that have to be filled in.

the good and the bad written out in pen to be filed away of just lost - no secrets from the men it seems. we have to have secrets there what we keep to ourselves defining ourselves by what we chose not to share. To take away the secrets is to take away part of that person.

still no word on if there is a screening just a yes or a no that's all we want really. please have some pity for those who want to know.

Well they've certainly messed with her hair as well as her mind - but seem to have allowed her her makeup! She looks lovely even if she is terrified!

Can we know who is writing the scripts please? Is it Lord Toby himself - has his sort of take on purgatory??

Aww, Annie! :'(

Keep holding on in there because Mitchell's coming to bust you out!

Glad your back on the blog Celtic now as to your thoughts are these the words of Lord Toby I hope so I really do.

now on to the make up - did I really just type that Oh well - the shower she is taken to seems to have a physical effect on he on that side of the door but all of her remains they can't for example cut her hair, so whatever is there stays there. Now if she died wearing make up then that would also be affected but also her form would reassert itself first before her hair as that would hold onto the 'water' for longer and stay affected after all her cloths seem almost dry don't they?

I am loving these Annie clips! About time we got to see what's happening on the other side! Kinda thinking that by the time Mitchell saves Annie, she may be a tad mad! :S

So glad that Annie has actually been given some form of storyline this series. She has been in the background so far - I hope beyond hope that this time around she gets more attention. She is the character who has most potential - who has a clue about the way things play out beyond the door? Not us, I cant wait to find out more!

so a new take there DGTTD
Annie are you OK? are you crazy? Annie.

At the least she might start out almost as reserved as she was in the beginning. or with people to talk to will she find it hard not to vocalise everything she's feeling?

Angry Annie will be amazing. Does anyone else think that she seems kind of drunk in the last broadcast? Comedy.
Also, is it the last of series 2 on tv tonight? Surely that means something...

Angry Annie confused Annie but not so much drunk as lost she is losing her self and a is really selling it.
Will we see for a while on her return Annie having to litrally pull herself bact together, poltergeist Annie or visible invisible (to the non supernatural) or jumping at random things.
So many options

and to the last episodes there is only one thing to suggest

Trailer! Trailer! Trailer!
Please.

wait that should be 'back together'

I'm thinking trailer too, dont think they'll show it tonight/monday morning though especially as it doesnt finish until late/early.
Monady night however... eeeeeeeeeeeekkk!!!!

So we're up to broadcast 5 now...this one sounding very familiat...ie the conversation she had with Mitchell and George in the last sequence of series 2 epsiode 8.

Would love this to progress a little more either with others being involved (where are all the other ghosts?), or some action taking place , or Annie revealing a little more about what's going on around her.

Having said all of that...keep strong Annie...you will be rescued!

There are three ways you can look at the repetition of facts Dorina are you ready.

1. To remind people of the end of ep 8. Basically This is where you were.

2. To give more detail about the world behind the door. So that we know a little about what Mitchell will face.

3. As they take away who she is repetition occurs as she tries to hold on to who she is "I am Anna Clare Sawyer"

As the repetition increases Annie is in more danger of being lost.

Hold on Annie.

Just watched broadcast 6....I think we all know what 'wierd and unexpected thing' happened to those people.
Great....Annie is leading us into connections with series 2....loving this!

..and kinda thinking that this connection ..with Annie...will be big at some point in series 3

Great job BHProductions!

@dorina mind explaining what the weird and unexpected thing was? I didn't get it >.>

Just watched the latest broadcast. Can't remember how many there've been now....so.... I'm guessing it's the Box Tunnel lot that have arrived. Interesting. Very interesting indeed.

Thankyyou so much to the BH production team for all of this. I'm getting really excited about series 3 now and am desperate for a start date and a trailer!

Hi bloggers - these broadcasts are nicely spooky - Im glad Annie's getting a bit darker/less cuddly. Come on Lord Toby - take her right to the dark side - Mitchell knows where that is.

Annie's commuters made me think of the Box Tunnel victims!including the train driver? (tho where have they been meantime??) She might get to hear things about Mitchell she'd rather not hear?

I can see these broadcasts need to do some catching up maybe for new watchers - but would like her to bring in Mitchell and George soon? eg wondering how her "boys" are.
(20) - interesting makeup theories ewan! but we have seen Annie with streaky eyes so Im thinking she still needs to touch up her makeup even if she is a ghost (like you - did I just write that!)

On the new broadcast what we find out.

There has been another incident on a train at first thought I thought Mitchell and Daisy then of course felt a bit of a fool Train massacre then Annie through the door.

Also Annie states that she's never seen the men look the way they are looking now, is this something to do with Herrick's return as he was Dead dead will all his actions from now on be outside of the fate of the world, is his very presence in the mortal world destroying the world.

And chief inspector Lynch it would seem will have his work cut out - that's his name on the radio in ep 8 you can check.

Also we heard them the bells echoing through the silence.

On a scarier note Annie seems to be having trouble holding on to her memories the trouble she has with recognising the what was being driven.

Hold on Annie as you wait for help we wait with you

Oh wait there might be a way they are the box tunnel + 1 if they were moved from one room to her room to talk to her about what happened but I'm still thinking Herrick.

Those dying before they should die because Herrick is back.

Elly..hi...I'm thinking that they are the people involved
( murdered) in the Box Tunnel massacre...and of course Annie doesn't know who killed those people.....wonder what her reaction would/will be if/when she finds out?

33 - (I can't believe I'm continuing this) When Annie gets streaky Her memories might be shown on her physical form - When upset she cries when she cries she remembers looking in the mirror afterwards when cleaning her self up so that memory changes her make up like her feelings change her cloths - (Now must do manly things like watch action films)

And wouldn't it be great if she runs into Kemp again ?...or am I being melodramatic.?.....wonder what happened to him as, technically, he didn't die....

Dorina (38). God only knows what actually happened to Kemp!

39 - thought you didnt do religion??lol

When I listened to this I immediately thought 'box tunnel' as people have said, but the timing really doesn't work....the box tunnel was at least 2 days before Annie being pulled through the door and even if they have to move between 'rooms' why would they only now be catching up with Annie in 'the process'? It was a great Bad-Mitchell moment but surely they would not go for a similar event (Herrick initiated or not)in series 3?

OK I am going to admiit it - these broadcasts are not working for me...I love Annie and I like the idea of regular stuff but this is too same-y for me.

Who knows what were going to find out next - we have until Thursday to get a whole load of info. I cant wait!

Celticgrace (40). I meant God in the Being Human world (I think!). It is odd what happened to Kemp. You never know, perhaps God will make an appearance in series 3!

43 - they'd have to get Lord Toby to dust off his acting shoes and play the part!

Hehe, I finally, after a good while, just got that Annie meant the train victims! I'm on fire tonight haha.

This is awesome to learn a little more about what happens, I hope they get Annie before she loses a sense of who she is (I'm sure she'll be find :)). It sounded like the processor people were either annoyed there were so many new folk to file through, or it was unexpected?

It'll give something for Mitchell do.

I thought of that but didn't that happen before she went through the door?

*fine oops :)

I'm just going to point out that Herrick was resurrected and that might be a reason for the guardians odd behaviour - and Box tunnel not that many in suits.

Also what are the arguments about?

I cant understand why and how folk are sick of these vids already :(

49 Don't worry hehe, we'll convert them!

Oh haham, if only we could!! :)

Where the hell is LBH??

Cool. Must be something to do with the people Mitchell killed on the train. Maybe somewhere people go if they've had a violent death.

I can't see how, but I hope things get better for Annie in time for Christmas, otherwise I'll be too worried about her to be the life & soul of the party :{

+ I see she's coming through on old analogue TV - do you think the other side will switch over to digital, or will they just lose contact?

martxw (54)

Nah! She'll just switch to the shopping channel :-)

My post's keep getting deleted =(

They have nothing offensive in or insulting towards anyone

Oh poor Annie ;( very scary and sad! Keep strong Annie we hear you.

A thought on how the Box tunnel victims would arrive after Annie, is that time works differently on the other side of the door not neccessarily linear. That could really mess with a ghost's mental stability.

https://www.digitalspy.co.uk/cult/s116/being-human/news/a292970/being-human-star-confirms-new-creature.html

Really??!!! Gaaahhhmmmnnggg!

Cool :D Robson Green and Kai Owen to star alongside Lacey Turner in Episode 1 :D

Source: IMDb

Laurar (58) - I'm thinking this might be Herrick. Possibly. Maybe. :)

groovygirl33 (59) - YAY!!! I love Kai Owen! :)

I can't wait to see the zombie! I am wondering if Annie knows that Mitchell murdered that train, I think not. I wonder if when Mitchel goes to get her, he will see his victems or aniie will mention them to him.

My thoughts on this new revelation is that it explains the attic.

Also Via twitter it has been sort of confirmed episode one is complete

Sooooo I was wondering will there be a screening yes on no or of course yes please

I'm just loving the fact that the recently arrived have to fill out forms. Administration is the new Hell! But I guess we all kinda knew that. :-)

I'm with everyone else on the Box Tunnel 20. There's no reason, in my mind, why time in the afterlife should be the same as time here so I don't have a problem with any timing issues. But will Annie find out it was Mitchell and Daisy, and how will that affect her subsequent relationship with him? If the threat this series is from each other, then I'm thinking that will be the basis of some considerable tension between the two of them and may well affect George and Nina's relationship with Mitchell, other nefarious acts between vampires and werewolves notwithstanding.

She says there are young women in the group no mention of the young man with an ipod though anyway if it is the box tunnel 21 remember the driver she must be seeing a lot from a different carriage. that would explain the discrepancies in cloths from ep 7

New broadcast is up!

Poor, poor Annie! :'(

thank you - she mentioned her boys.

"crush on Mitchell" - getting her words confused of course - she didn't mean it - how could she?

especially when she finds out what he did!

Just watched the new broadcast. Am almost in tears. Poor Annie :(

Analysis of today's broadcast

We knew her mothers name is Carmen but now we know her Fathers name is Max

There is no mention of Nina but they did only spend a short time together in comparison
Also no mention of her sister/s or of Robin who works for the post office

the fact that she had a crush on an English teacher is news could explain her love of Bronte

the way George and Mitchell become her brothers really highlights how close they are to her heart

And at the end a little bit of Annie we love with her reaction when she says
"I had a crush on Mitchell"

Hold on Annie

will be back later with full list of possible zombie types and theories

Celticgrace (66): Loved it when she said she had a crush on Mitchell!

I'm thinking she's coming back as an angel of sorts. The show needs an angel. A very angry, wrathful angel.

"I had a crush on Mitchell..." Don't we all? ;)

martxw and deathrattle...you guys make me laugh!..keep it coming!

Despite the lack of mention of everyone in that train carriage...I'm still thinking that Annis is referring to the Box Tunnel 20...although of course she has no idea as to how they met their fate.

Regarding 'other creatures' introduced into series 3...it was clear from Oct 2009 (Halloween Bafta event in Nottingham)...and discussed many times on the blog since then..that Toby was keen on introducing zombies and possibly 'other creatures' (angels?) into Being Human. At the end of series two I suggested that the resurrected Herrick could be a zombie but now not so sure ...could zombies show themselves in the daylight?

and will there be another Annie broadcast tonight?...can't wait!

OOps..in between posting last comment and this Annie has broadcasted again!

Keep strong Annie!

of course she's had a thing for Mitchell...since she met him actually...and when she 'returns' to his world..I'm thinking she may remember that...and maybe act on it....

Zombie types

Flesh eaters - these come as the standard case very similar to the original Mummy curses will have vengeance on those who disturb my tomb type of thing but on the whole I don't think such a creature would fit in the being human universe plus I don't think NUuug would be used outside of a witty aside in the script.

The Litch - A spell caster who in order to be immortal has become undead they are traditionally dry or effectively hollow in their take on the world and not interacting in the world so if this is the zombie that will have to change.

The resurrected zombie - These are zombies who with the aid of a necromancer or ceremony (this could yes mean Herrick = zombie) were raised this also includes the flesh eater but more traditionally the zombie can be commanded by the one who raised then - be reliant on those who raised them to stay around. Also they get to keep in some cased their personality or in others have it taken away or at least their memories taken.

So Litch for new character
and raised for Herrick

what are your thoughts?

Dorina (72) - Me and ewan were talking about this over on Twitter.

Traditionally, zombies are dead but can't feel (and Annie says she's like a zombie in the Tully episode). BUT what if this zombie CAN feel? This would then support the idea that it reminds Annie about the things she can't do herself, perhaps prompting her to master the powers she started to discover in series 2? eg. aura reading, feeling, 'tasting' etc. Maybe meeting the zombie will give her the push she needs to becoming confidant again?

Yes also I added a thought could Annie posses either a living person - brain-dead in a coma ward after all Annie doing something bad to a living person - well apart from Kemp highly unlikely.
Or a recently dead body - it would be interesting to see if she could do this for brief periods of time.

ewan (76) - Oops, I forgot that bit! Sorry!

Well it was only a wafer thin tweet

not sure about zombies tho hopeful Lord Toby's will be different - not known for their jokes? Wouldn't like to see Herrick back without his sense of humour?

if Herrick is the zombie then we can expect plenty of Brainnssssss jokes but with a cynical and maliciously gleeful slant.

if he doesn't remember will his style of humour be different?

Oh poor Annie!! She's so confussed, Mitchell really needs to hurry up & rescue her before we loose Annie all together!!

'I had a crush on Mitchell'' think most ppl do =P

Im loving the Zombie storyline already!! I hope this is a way more humour is on the show =)

I think it would be a cool twist if Herrick turns out to be a zombie. Also I REALLY want to see the most recent broadcast but my school blocks youtube :( I'll watch it when I get home. Anyway, I think its probably going to happen that either Mitchel sees the victims or Annie mentions it to Mitchel and then Annie will find out what happened and it will probobly temporarily mess up their relationship because Annie specefically was saying those poor people, I wonder what happened to them

I am continually surprised by each of these broadcasts - amazing acting.
What if on Thursday she's just like a braindead nutter waiting for rescue! Poor Annie!

Mitchell and Annie. I love it. Neck biting ghost babies will be the cutest thing ever!

Aw Annie!

I doubt Annie will remember about the train victims until way later on, after she's back.

A crush on Mitchell. Are you sure Annie? I think we all do, accept it's not a bad thing hehe!

I finally saw the most recent video. I agree with DontGoThroughTheDoor (85) Are you sure about Mitchel? :) I feel so bad for Annie, imagine not being able to remember the most basic facts about your life!

I don't think they are the people Mitchell killed - that happened before Annie got sent through, no?

BUT if Herrick has been resurrected he's going to want a lot of blood to revive himself... I think it's a taste of what's to come, rather than what's been.


Also, "I had a crush on Mitchell - NO!" wow, loved that bit. i think the lady doth protest too much.
then the "oh wait... did i? i can't remember, maybe I did..." thoughts after.
perhaps she'll be confused when they get her out and she'll think she has a crush on Mitchell and that George IS her brother?

Food for thought.

Are they really Mitchell and Daisy's train victims? It was the first thought that crossed my mind but Annie's description of the newcomers doesn't fit all the victims on that train, sure a few were wearing suits but there were others too that she didn't mention! If it is them it probably doesn't matter that they were killed before Annie went through the door, after all Annie and all the other ghosts we've met had been dead for ages without going to the waiting room so it doesn't have to happen straight away.

What are you all talking about, zombies? Think I must have missed something major there *goes back to watch again* I thought that at the end of the last series, would be cool if Herrick was a zombie now!

88 - scroll up to post 58 and read the article

Hi there,

Re. zombies etc., just read the article about new werewolves and babies. Very pleased to read that Michael Socha to be in BH3. Think he has definite screen presence.

These videos are just getting me more and more excited about S3 coming up.
For one, I am happy that we are getting something Annie focused. I feel like she needs more to do and more storyline and more of a search into her potential powers as a ghost, her future as a spirit on the earth, and so on. There's so many depths to be explored with her situation. I'm glad it seems like we will have gotten past her whole "I really want to cross over, so depressed" bit that seemed to be going on last series. Now that she's experienced what crossed over is like, hopefully it will prompt her to take a new lease on...life (lol) so to speak and explore her potential when she gets out.
On the whole new creature bit- I'm interested on who it will be and what relation they will have to Annie. I also wonder, like fellow posters here, what kind of z it will be. This should be interesting b/c Toby doesn't seem to stick to the rules when it comes to the creatures so I'm curious as to what rules will apply to the Z and what will not.
Lastly, the bit where Annie mentions her "non-existent" crush on Mitchell...gotta love it. I just hope I get some more Mitchell/Annie interaction and perhaps some romance- I think it is long over due for them. I think what they have been through, and what they will probably go through in S3 will be even more of a testament to the fact that that these two characters are morbidly "perfect" for one another.
Once again- very excited.

Perhaps at this point, Mitchell's already through the door and actively searching for Annie. The men behind the door would want to defend themselves which would probably mean presenting Mitchell with all his victims. So it kind of makes sense for the Box Tunnel Twenty (which still sounds like the name of a naff 80's Rockabilly band to me - makes me want to sing "I'm a rockabilly rebel, from head to toe...) Ahem, but I digress!

Yes, anyway. If Mitchell's getting close to rescuing Annie, it would make sense to gather Mitchell's victims around her. How will he fight his way through a 80+ years of victims all "baying for blood" (see what I did there!) to get to Annie?

So the return of the Box Tunnel Twenty (not the Los Palmas Seven because that was a Madness track... oh no, I'm back in the 80's again!!!) might be a good sign.

This comment was removed because the moderators found it broke the house rules. Explain.

'I had a crush on Mitchell - NO!' Hmmnn. Interesting...

Like the 'I don't trust cats'. :-)

Also, I don't think the Box Car 20 can necessarily be there to make Mitchell realise the error of his ways. He can't get more contrite than the 'I remember all their faces' comment (not verbatim) when he was talking to Annie once. He's already made that journey. So I'm kinda with you on the guarding Annie theory. I don't think, if they are the Box Car 20 they would be guarding Annie out of choice because they've only just got there and wouldn't know who she was. But I think their anger could be manipulated by whoever's keeping Annie there. Whoever 'they' may be.

As a Annie fan, I'm hoping that S3 is more Annie-centric. Mitchell and George had their turn and now that Annie has something new to worry about, it'll give her more to work through.

It may be a coming broadcast or an extra one but SFX has a little present for everyone
plus an interview with Mr P himself

https://www.sfx.co.uk/2010/12/14/being-human-annie%E2%80%99s-messages-from-the-other-side/

A depressing day (broken boiler..can't be repaired till tomorrow...let's not go there..) got worse when I looked at Twitter. Mr P thinks it's not looking good for a Being Human 3 Preview....colour me depressed...

No screening? not no screening, but he said episode one is done and sad now there is still a possible trailer on Friday - after all Annie's broadcasts end on Thursday but still no screening.

feel sad no beer sad and sober that's depressing.

but on the hopelessly optimistic side there has been no no yet - who am I kidding in the weekend I'm waking up with a hangover there is nothing more to it.

Apartmentlife and RyokoStorm - Yayyy! More Annie fans! I couldnt agree more, but am less eloquent.
Dont worry Dorina, a new blog soon should warm you up. As for the lack of preview - I feel and share the pain :(

well as Annie forgets we can ask ourselves will there be any new revelations from Annie as she tries to hold onto who she is. Will help get there in time, and what exactly she has against cats?
