Thanks, A Cousin! I thought it was last weekend. I thought I'd missed it! Well, I've seen it already, but I want to watch it with my husband. He loves her, too.

Just a reminder : For US fans, Nicola is in the Being Human episode which is being aired in the US TONIGHT (19.3.2011) - The Longest Day. A rare comedic role for NW.

For UK fans, its her guest episode in Law & Order : UK on Monday, 21 March 2011 on ITV. Smile

Happy viewing!

I see that Being Human is on Oz digital ABC2. Anyone know when NW is on?? Undecided

If they're showing Series 3 of the UK version of Being Human, Nicola is in episode 305, titled The Longest Day. Must see TV Yahoo

Episode One of series three was this week. So Nicola's episode should air on ABC2 around the week before ANZAC Day. I live in hope that it will get a tv guide write up Tongue

Oh NO! Just heard that for US transmission, they cut one of the best bits of Nicola's guest appearance on Being Human 305 : The Longest Day. Why, why, why??? Huh

Being Human had a nice write up last week (I think) in The Age/SMH guide. So it's on their radar at least.

I didn't even know it was airing till the TV write up leapt out at me lol!

Its an annoying little something called the FCC. Love it or hate it it is what we have to deal with! BBCA does give Being Human a full 1:15 ostensibly so they can air it in its entirety and have commercials. (They give Top Gear 1:20 with TG repeats before and afterwards.) To BBCA's credit, they do keep commercials down to absolute bare minimum. What I can get done during a commercial break on BBCA is much less than I can get done on any other network! Wink

Graham Norton comes on after Being Human and they have cut that down to :45 with commercials. I wonder if there are contractual agreements with Graham Norton limiting the amount of cuts to his programme? Just guessing....

But out of curiosity - what was cut? (In spoilers please) I felt like there was something missing from the car scene at the very end? And there was one cut after a commercial break that felt clunky. Before the break they were all talking in the same room and after the break, everyone had moved to another room.

I have tried to get into Being Human but found myself kind of lukewarm about it in general. NW was great, as usual. She walked the line between parody and reality very nicely.
