Trivia

The Nephilim (somewhat different spelling from that used in the series) are mentioned only briefly in the Biblical book of Genesis, and in more detail in several Apocryphal books including The Book of Enoch and The Secrets of Enoch. In those texts, the Watchers are a troop of angels tasked with watching over and protecting Mankind. They become infatuated with mortal women, descend to Earth and have their way with them, spawning a race of gigantic monsters, the Nephilim. For the sin of lust, the Watchers are banished from Heaven and are condemned to roam the Earth for eternity. Out of revenge, they teach Mankind the arts of magic and warfare. Their leader is sometimes called "Azazel" or "Azaziel".

User Reviews

Back for a well deserved second series!

Hex is a unique British TV series which has provided relief in the currently dismal TV of late.

Although it has many similarities to and has been hailed as the 'british Buffy' try not to compare the two as they are very different shows. Without Buffy paving the way chances are Hex wouldn't be here but to compare the two will more than likely result in disappointment.

Hex follows student Cassandra Hughes at boarding school with her best friend Thelma (Jemima Rooper). The two are outsiders, mocked by the populars and content to sit alone at lunch - something which many will relate to.

Cassie's world is turned upside down by an innocent discovery. The result of her curiosity turning her mundane school life into a roller-coaster of sex, discovery, pain, death, love and excitement! Hex boasts a witch, fallen angel, lesbian ghost and plenty in-between. Do not miss your chance to see this fab show returning on 18th September 2005 for a well deserved second season.
