The BBC are gearing up for the screening of series 2 of Being Human, a dramedy about a vampire, werewolf, and ghost living in Bristol. Series 1 was incredibly popular, and the new series is due to screen in January 2010.

If you can’t quite wait for it to arrive on the telly, there’s a special screening of the first episode of series 2, and you could get free tickets!

Aidan Turner who plays Mitchell (the vampire) has recorded a special video message about it for the Being Human blog (http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/beinghuman) which you can check out below.

The screening will take place at a London cinema (exact venue to be confirmed) on the evening of January 7th, 2010 and BBC Three are giving away free pairs of tickets to fans on a first-come-first-served basis.

The tickets will be available from 10am on Thursday 10th December – just head to www.bbc.co.uk/tickets.

These kind of special events are great, and I only wish I lived closer to London to be able to attend more of them – but if you’re a Being Human fan, and if you’re able to be in London on the evening of January 7th, check it out and try your luck at getting some freebie tickets.
