Turner teases 'Being Human' romance

Being Human star Aidan Turner has confirmed that a romance could develop between his character Mitchell and Annie (Lenora Crichlow) in the third series.

Series creator Toby Whithouse previously hinted that the pair could get together.

Turner told Collider that his vampire character was "naturally drawn to Annie".

"In the second season, Mitchell has a lot of things to deal with, and love and personal relationships aren’t at the top of his list," he explained. "He’s got to sort some stuff out first and make sure that his mates don’t get killed. Maybe in the third season [they will get together]."

He added: "[The relationship] could work. We could make it work."

The actor also revealed that he is looking forward to the forthcoming US remake of the show.

"It’s going to be a very different show, I would imagine, because they have money and we didn’t have any of that," he said. "They have a budget, those lucky swines. But, there’s no fear. People know that we exist. [A bigger] budget doesn’t mean better."

The vampire character in the new version of the programme has been renamed Aidan, as a reference to Turner.

"Mitchell... has a new, sexy name as well, which is really cool," he joked.

The original version of Being Human is currently filming a third series in Cardiff.
