Michael and Sarah Maher get very spiritual in their discussion of episode three where we meet Gilbert.
Be warned - this is a very sexy episode. Of Being Human that is, not the podcast. We talk about mouli graters and plumbing. George and Nina's relationship is blossoming, Mitchell is getting bloody in the shower and Annie, well, she's not so lucky.
