BEING HUMAN Season Finale 2012 Trailer

Posted by

Watch the trailer for the thrill-pack season finale of Supernatural Saturday’s smash hit series BEING HUMAN *** Premiering Saturday Apr 14 at 9/8c *** only on BBC America. There’s nothing like a vampire takeover to bond new roommates forever!

In the season finale, the Old Ones have arrived and are intent on taking over the world by force. Cutler (Andrew Gower) has other plans, but when they go awry, his revenge on his own kind is plotted. Annie (Lenora Crichlow) is conflicted and upset as she comes to terms with the fact that, in order to save the world, she’s been tasked with the most difficult decision of her afterlife. Tom (Michael Socha) and Hal (Damien Molony) have their own plan to destroy the vampires, but when Mr. Snow (Mark Gatiss, Doctor Who, Sherlock), the vampire leader, visits Hal, he demonstrates the power he holds over our hero.

For the fourth season, BEING HUMAN is reinvigorated with new cast members, shocking plot-twists, guest appearances and an altogether new type of supernatural creature. Says creator and writer Toby Whithouse (Doctor Who, Torchwood): “We take you to somewhere we’ve never been to before.”

NO KITCHEN REQUIRED Northern Thailand Ep 3 Trailer

Posted by

Watch the trailer for the all new episode of BBC America’s all new original unscripted adventure-cooking-competition series NO KITCHEN REQUIRED, set in Chiang Dao, Thailand – before the world premiere *** Tuesday Apr 17 at 10/9c *** only on BBC America. Immediately following a new episode of Ramsay’s Kitchen Nightmares at 9/8c.

The chefs battle a mighty language barrier and even mightier prey as they head to Chiang Dao, Thailand – home of the Palong hill people. The hunting and cooking methods of the Palong have remained the same for hundreds of years, but the chefs must do their best to put their own spin on ancient traditions if they hope to win.

Madison tests his fears exploring the dark abyss of an eerie bat cave while Kayne struggles to keep hold of his game. Meanwhile, Michael charms his way to a successful hunt.

But during the cooking challenge, emotions flare as one chef is accused of hoarding the hottest ingredient. Will the chefs be able to overcome their unfamiliarity with the local ingredients and find a way to win?

From the creators of Chopped, NO KITCHEN REQUIRED follows three chefs as they are dropped into the most exotic and remote places on earth where they will work with the locals to hunt, fish and forage for ingredients to create a locally-inspired meal that will be judged by the community.

The three fearless chefs are:
* Award-winning New York restaurateur Michael Psilakis;
* First-ever Chopped Grand Champion Madison Cowan, who has roots in London, Detroit and Jamaica
and
* New Zealand chef Kayne Raymond.

The trio leave the comforts of their kitchens and are dropped into ten locations around the world including Belize, Dominica, New Zealand, Fiji, Chiang Mai, Thailand, Phuket, Thailand, Hawaii, New Mexico, Louisiana and Florida.

The series is hosted by British presenter Dr. Shini Somara (BBC’s One Show, BBC World News’ The Health Show) – who joins the chefs on the adventure.
