1. Rather like the concluding episode of series three, the final episode of season four isn’t quite as amazing as the one that preceded it. But it’s still pretty awesome.

2. Mark Gatiss is sublime as the softly-spoken, unblinking leader of the Old Ones, Mr Snow, who has a wonderfully grandiloquent turn of phrase.

3. It’s also probably the goriest Being Human yet. One particularly gruesome scene managed to remind us of both Hellraiser and Nightmare On Elm Street simultaneously.
