[UK/BBC] Being Human


Recommended Posts

The hell is this, and why does that woman look strangely familiar?

Being Human is a British television supernatural drama-comedy series, broadcast on BBC Three. It stars Lenora Crichlow, Russell Tovey and Aidan Turner as three apparent twenty-something characters sharing a house in Bristol, trying to live a normal social life, despite being a ghost, a werewolf and a vampire respectively.

Sounds good, to bad I don't live in Britain. However, the second part of my question went unanswered, how come the woman looks so familiar, what else has she been in that I may have seen her in?

her name is Lenora Crichlow

Well, she's in stuff I haven't heard of, except Doctor Who, and I've only seen one episode of the new Doctor Who, and that was the very first episode. But, she still seems strangely familiar to me.

she does have one of those face's :p

anyway back on topic! I am looking forward to see who the enemy is in this series.

EastEnders actress Lacey Turner is to make a guest appearance in the new series of BBC Three supernatural drama Being Human.

In her first television role since announcing her decision to quit Walford, the 22-year-old - who has played troubled Stacey Branning since 2004 - is to portray a character called Lia who steers Mitchell (Aidan Turner) on his journey to purgatory where he hopes to save his friend Annie (Lenora Crichlow).

Speaking of her guest spot, Turner said: "It was fantastic working on Being Human, I had some great scenes with Aidan Turner, especially when his character Mitchell is facing up to some of the things he has done in the past."

She added: "The cast and crew were really welcoming and I can't wait to watch how the story comes together on screen when the series airs."

3.01 "Lia"

When you've spent the last few years sharing a house with a vampire and werewolves, you would imagine life couldn't get any weirder.

But Annie, the ghost who has so far escaped the clutches of death in BBC Three's hit drama Being Human, finds herself in even stranger surroundings at the start of the third series: trapped in purgatory, waiting to hear her fate.

Meanwhile, Annie's best friends and former housemates ? werewolf couple George and Nina, and reformed vampire Mitchell ? are hoping for a fresh start by moving to Wales. Surely if anywhere can provide a haven for them, a place where they can pass under the radar, it's the seaside town of Barry?

Leaving the memories of their much-loved house in Bristol behind, George, Nina and Mitchell settle into their new home ? a kitsch B&B named Honolulu Heights that boasts many benefits for supernatural sharers; a large basement providing a safe and sheltered environment on a full moon, for one.

Mitchell, however, is finding it hard to settle in. He's struggling with the guilt of his bloodthirsty revenge at the end of the last series, but ? most importantly ? he's missing Annie.

Determined to get her back Mitchell enters purgatory, where he meets Lia. Though sweet and sparky, Lia lets Mitchell into a dark secret that threatens to haunt him day and night, and to tear his friendships apart...

Annie is played by Lenora Crichlow, George by Russell Tovey, Nina by Sinead Keenan, Mitchell by Aidan Turner and Lia by Lacey Turner.

    • It is silly there is no simple way to check whether this profile has been activated. CFRs are normal, but trying to even hide the fact if it's on / off seems silly, especially for something so user-facing. Surely Microsoft is "proud" of their engineering efforts on this one and ought to display it somwhere in the GUI.
    • Many Linux distros are not known for excellent battery life, so I'm not sure that is the best example. A more apt example may be Apple, but Apple's CPUs are simply far more efficient than Intel & AMD at single-threaded tasks like these, so "boosting" is not as power-hungry and less heat-inducing. Not to mention Apple will hardly engage P-cores for basic UI tasks; they use a pretty complicated QoS scheme to only activate P-cores for more serious workloads like HTML / JS execution or decompression or application launch. Microsoft is (smartly) doing it for launch, but also for UI tasks, which is the more nonsensical part: why ... do Windows 11's UIs need modern CPUs to boost? It should load so quickly that there's not even time for the CPU to boost.
    • I've not seen any controlled testing and, judging by Microsoft's mentality, within a year, they'll have added so much more bloat, it'll undo any perceptible latency benefit and we'll have boosted the CPU clocks for nothing.
    • It depends: heat soak is a thing. Initially on cold boot-up, the heatsinks & heatpipes are at ambient temp. After heatsinks & heatpipes warm up (through normal usage), they don't immediately cool to ambient temp when the load goes away. So their baseline is higher and the trigger point for fans is much less stress. Add a few more CPU spikes → it's too hot to stay at the same fan RPM → fans get triggered to start up up much sooner / get triggered to ramp much more quickly.
    • Can LibreOffice just shut up and worry about themselves and stop comparing themselves? Do we see Microsoft complaining about euro office?
