8 Episodes 2010 - 2010
Episode 1
Cure and Contagion
62 mins
Mitchell and George encounter husband and wife vampires Ivan and Daisy, who warn them of the likely power struggle after Herrick's death and their own vulnerability. Annie gets work in a pub and takes home customer Nathan, and Mitchell befriends new doctor Lucy. At the full moon, whilst the sinister Kemp destroys a captive werewolf in a pressure chamber, Nina is horrified to find that, accidentally scratched by George, she too transforms into a werewolf. George is pursued by the flirtatious Daisy who wants him to enjoy the dark side and has sex with him. Smelling Daisy's perfume on him increases Nina's anguish but they make up and the other housemates pledge to support Nina. Whilst they are all out, Kemp comes to the house with a psychic, testing for supernatural presences, and sensing triumph.
Episode 2
Serve God, Love Me and Mend
61 mins
Mitchell shelters Carl, an old vampire friend who has tried to 'be human' but killed again, (with his victim arriving at the hospital and intriguing Lucy). With help from Ivan and George, Mitchell gets Carl out of the country, but Nina, appalled, leaves George, running right into Kemp, who has been monitoring the house. Pathologist Quinn tells Mitchell that he once colluded with Herrick for money but, with Herrick gone, he has become honest again. Ivan forewarns Mitchell of things only getting worse. Meanwhile, Saul tells Annie he was dead for several minutes following a car crash and saw the same corridor she did. He also imagines that people on the television are addressing him personally and goading him into making Annie pass over. Ultimately, he cannot do it and goes through the door alone, but Annie finds herself regressed from the experience and that, once more, humans cannot see her - starting with Hugh, to whom she had just begun to get close.
Episode 3
Long Live the King
57 mins
Three hundred and sixty years after supposed Satanists were executed in the catacombs of Bristol, vampire attacks re-commence. Though Chief Constable Wilson refuses to be drawn into speculation by journalists, he, in fact, knows all about vampires, having done business with Herrick, and now with Mitchell. Mitchell addresses an assembly of vampires, telling them they must refrain from blood or else be hunted to extinction. Despite initial opposition led by Daisy, he is ultimately accepted as their new vampire king. Lucy is intrigued when a vampire victim brought to the hospital supposedly kills himself, but Mitchell is unable to tell her anything, which makes their first date a disaster. Having successfully re-united Hugh with his ex-girlfriend Kirsty, George gets a call from Nina, who is about to do "something wonderful." And the identity of the mysterious and threatening Prof. Jagget is finally revealed.
Episode 4
Educating Creature
59 mins
George is unaware that his retaliatory snipes at Lucy's "suspicious" interest in Mitchell have merit. She is really a geneticist, recruited by Kemp after seeing her publication on the possible existence of an evil gene which could be isolated. Kemp is anxious to try out her theory on the likes of vampires and werewolves, but she, not as ruthless as he, steps in to save Nina from the latest experiment. George gets a new job as a language teacher, meets single parent Sam, and buys a cage for his transformations, in which he also goes one step further - putting himself to sleep via tranquilizers. The absence of blood-lust as a werewolf, however, leaves him violent in his day-to-day life, prone to physical and verbal outbursts. Annie, meanwhile, gets saved from being pulled through the door by Sykes, a young R.A.F. pilot who died in World War Two and who is scared to pass over for fear of meeting the men he believes he killed. He tarries to give Annie survival tips and tells her it is always her choice to pass over. Mitchell seeks support from Ivan in his campaign to wean vampires off blood, but Ivan is still keen to kill.
Episode 5
The Looking Glass
55 mins
Annie looks after a ghost mother's ghost baby for a day, making George broody and keen to move in with Sam and her brattish daughter Molly. Chief Constable Wilson fetches Mitchell to kill a paedophile but Mitchell refuses, recalling an incident from forty years earlier with Herrick when he first learnt to experience compassion (and where Herrick got the idea of being a policeman). He warns the offender to give himself up instead and later kills Wilson. Covered in the policeman's blood he arrives for a dinner date at Lucy's flat. She knows he is a vampire and has a stake, given her by Kemp, with which to kill him.
Episode 6
In the Morning
56 mins
Lucy cannot bring herself to kill Mitchell and tells Kemp, whose hatred of vampires is seen to stem from the fact that a trio of them killed his family when he was a young vicar in 1972. George starts to make a home with Sam but Molly discerns he has a secret. Annie strays into an old theatre and sees Alan Cortez, a washed-up medium who has lost his psychic powers. She assembles a team of ghosts to tell their loved ones the truth - which also enables the ghosts to pass over. She is amazed to see her mother, Carmen, in the audience and allows Carmen to achieve closure by knowing that her daughter wants her to stop grieving. Acting on information from a reluctant Lucy, Kemp dynamites the mortuary in which Mitchell and the other vampires are meeting.
Episode 7
Damage
61 mins
Only Daisy and Mitchell survive the blast. Nina visits George to say she believes Kemp and Lucy can cure them. He is unconvinced; however, after a panic in which he began to transform whilst visiting Molly's school's opening evening (only just getting home in time to be caged), he agrees to visit Kemp's lab, accompanied by Annie. Mitchell reverts to blood lust, killing Quinn, and taking a terrible revenge on some innocent bystanders before learning that Lucy betrayed him.
Episode 8
All God's Children
59 mins
Inside Kemp's 'facility' George, believing Mitchell to be dead, listens as Lucy, justifying her work, tells him she loved Mitchell. He also hears a tape of Annie claiming to hate her ghostly existence and crave closure. To create a door Kemp kills Hennessey, his psychic, pushing both him and Annie through it. Mitchell, having slain some of Kemp's minions, is about to kill Kemp but George stops him, stating that Annie would not have wanted it. Nina, Mitchell and George all escape and three months later are living in a country cottage. Lucy visits, to apologise, but she is followed by Kemp, who kills her before he is swept through a door created by Annie. Annie appears on a television screen in a limbo from which Mitchell vows to save her but, thanks to Cara, another enemy may not be dead.
