PUT YOUR QUESTIONS TO THE BEING HUMAN CREATOR
It's true what they say about Being Human creator Toby Whithouse. Not only is he handsome, charming and , he also loves talking to you guys, the Being Human fans.
Toby wants your questions and will answer as many as he can in person right here on the blog. So, if you've got a query about the show put it in the comments below and Toby will sift through his favourites and answer them in his next blog post.
But what to ask about? Maybe the potential vamp/ghost romance between Annie and Mitchell? Or the possible future children of George and Nina? How about the badass new werewolves Tom and McNair? Or the kinky vamp antics of Richard and Emma?
There's also purgatory, Lia, Adam, our new online web series Becoming Human and all the general gubbins about what it's like being the writer of a hit TV show.
Fire away.

Types or Levels.
George stated he had no trouble digesting raw meat from the night before even from his first transformation to Tully who stated that he threw up the first few times.
In the CenSSA Lab Lloyd notes that Nina's results were different to the other werewolves.

The series is about being human even if you have some fundamental problem - but the way things are going does suggest that sometimes it might be impossible to reconcile the two successfully ..? Is this because of the supernatural element to the show (ie. being a vampire, or a ghost - pretty extreme problem) or is this a continuation of the metaphor about human imperfection?
Assuming that Mitchell will be killed off or packed off at the end of this season ... is there a way for him to come back? Is it likely that he will, or does "The Hobbit" mean probably not? (realise this is too spoilery but had to ask anyway!)

Thank you for Adam answering last Sunday's blog discussion about whether Mitchell smells. My question is:
If Mitchell and Annie get it together, will Annie improve Mitchell's personal hygiene? I'm thinking washing his clothes, bedsheets, explaining the concept of showers, shampoo, etc. Perhaps explaining that the scratch and sniff in a magazine is not as effective as deoderant bought in a shop? Is this a possibility?

First of all, there's a few supernatural creatures kicking around, but what about people who can do magic? I remember the episode with Tully, and he had all these tattoo's, some looked a little occulty; an attempt to stop him transforming? Or would that be a little too much to bring in?
Second, loved the whole idea of Mitchell's own Purgatory, and being forced to confront his past. Far better than how it was played out in Buffy and Angel (for me anyway). Does this mean that Mitchell will be visited by other people he's killed, such as the corroner and the policeman from series 2 (thought Ian Puleston-Davies was brilliant as his character).
Third, can vampires become ghosts? I can see Ivan haunting Kate Bush.
And finally, will it get revealed why vampires have it in so much for werewolves? Is there a specific reason, or just that they're immoral?
And thanks for writing such a brilliant show. Why it's not on Ö÷²¥´óÐã1 or 2 is beyond me.

QUESTION: Toby, when you initially cast Aidan Turner and Lenora Crichlow, did you always plan to create a possible romantic relationship for Mitchell/Annie? Or was it more of a result of their amazing chemistry? And, I'm curious, would it be possible for Mitchell/Annie to ever have a child together? Or because she is a ghost, it's not possible for her at all?
Thank you so much for writing such an awesome show. And I'm really enjoying the romantic development for Mitchell/Annie.

80/81 - well in my head he smells rather intoxicating too, but I am trying to be realistic here. It helps me overcome the distraction. I suspect he may even smell of cigarettes, which for me would see me heading for the door. I still maintain that I have a rule against Irish. (Sorry Irishmen who are nice. I've only been misused by your countrymen and that means there's a rule now.)

7 - the basic design and colour stay the same but the changes are there to show her mood.
22 - the police had Ivan's body I'm assuming they also disposed of it - cremation or something like that.
57 - old photos colourised or just old photo's that's what he used in season 1
60 - the feeling on the blog was either fear of her strenght or as a trap to get Mitchell to give him the prophecy - but I would like to know which.
66 - They have to drink from him before they die to get turned
those are the ones I think I can answer
apart from All those in the USA the answer is February the 19th at 9/8 central on Ö÷²¥´óÐã America

As the series progresses, are you influenced to write specifically to their strengths - feeling confident that you can challenge them eg. Russell can handle pathos as well as humour, Aidan can step up to some pretty heavy stuff in s2 etc. - or does the story always come first?

To all the cast and crew, and of course a big thank you to you, this show has given me something to look forward to these past few years when things have been quite difficult. I've always been one to pick up and cling to new shows, but this is the only one which has truly gripped me, left me guessing until the end and made me love each of the characters as much as the last.
I could go on but I'll stop here before I get into my stride of praising.
My question though is about the original music. I know there were murmurings on the blog about a possible release of the beautiful scores made especially for Being Human, any update on this?
Thank you again, utter thanks.
Oh and thanks as well for the Annie/Mitchell romance this season, even if I fear it may be short-lived and angsted to within an inch of its undead-life, I've been hoping for it from the first episode.

You've shown us your Being Human vision of purgatory where past deeds are visited and forms filled...what is your vision of Hell, and Heaven, in the Being Human world and what dictates where you end up? (you see I'm bit puzzled that Annie who led a decent life as far as we know was destined for Hell...or was this just to tempt Mitchell there in a hurry?.)
Would love for you to say a little more about 'the danger within' in series 3 because I'm beginning to think that the danger is one of our awesome foursome...but I guess that would be too spoiler related

Look, in any series there are going to be episodes people like less than others - I was like that on Sunday - but that doesn't depreciate the rest of the series.
I am really sorry you are feeling so disillusioned though and send you a hug. And a recommendation that you stick to the series one and two boxsets! =(

What would have happened if Adam's father had stayed on in this world like Annie?
I will be boring but i want to know as for question 17, will Becoming Human make another mini appearance in one of the episodes of Being human, just because i love it so much?
And i thought of this the other day, what do you think would have been Adam's reaction had he seen the pink house on the corner in Bristol -apart from the moan about the long drive there?

Telling me to stop watching the show is no contribution at all really, I loved the first two series and I cherish my box set and I want to be proved one. The one thing I personally can't stand is people who pass judgement without experiencing something, so I will continue watching for now, hoping...

I'm sorry, I'm not good at criticism, it always upsets me and I naturally get in mode for protecting the other party. I commend your determination to work through the anxieties. I'm a big wuss. I can't do negativity, sorry. Still sending you a big hug!
See, I can't intentionally do mean. I want everyone to love one another. Useless.

I think Toby is teasing with this one...I expect pain along the way for poor old Annie!...and sad to say I suspect that the same will ultimately be true for George and Nina
