The Trinity is the first episode of Series 5, and was first aired on 3rd February 2013. This is the first episode in the series to not feature any of the original characters (Annie, George, Mitchell), and subsequently the formation of a new Supernatural Trinity.

Summary[]

Ghost Alex is adjusting to life after death with werewolf Tom but vampire Hal is in hell. Not because he’s chained up like an animal, but because he’s desperate to get his marigolds on the messy house.

But when Tom and Alex decide to set him free, Hal’s wracked by uncertainty…can he control his bloodlust? Things get complicated with the return of Mr Rook, the shady figure whose government department protects the world from supernaturals.

Having been fired from the café, Hal and Tom find new employment at the Barry Grand Hotel, home to poisonous pensioner Captain Hatch (Phil Davis). Unknown to our trio, his decrepit exterior hides an ancient evil that threatens not only their friendship but also the entire world.


Music[]

Aside from Richard Wells' original score, this episode features the following songs:

  • Death Proof, by Kate Nash (2012) - playing on the soundtrack as Alex sniffs various jars and attempts to eat some chocolate.
  • Ça plane pour moi, by Plastic Bertrand, single (1977) - playing on the soundtrack as Hal chases Crumb.
