With eleven episodes aired in the USA and Canada you wouldn’t think that a promo for the Vampire Diaries premiere in another country would provide us with much to grab us with. Well, we’d be wrong. Ian Somerhalder Italy pointed us at this new Italian trailer, and it’s very cool to watch. The show premieres in Italy on February 3 at 21.50pm on MYA/Mediaset Premium.

Night two of the CW’s Vampire Diaries marathon, and we hope everyone is back for more. Last night’s viewing figures are in, with the “Pilot” episode attracting 1.6 million viewers and “Night of the Comet” holding at 1.4 million viewers. Can we beat those figures tonight?

Anyhow, here’s the combined episode reaction post for “Friday Night Bites” (one of Julie Plec’s favourites, we hear) and “Family Ties” (we miss Caroline’s scarves, we really do). You can watch the trailers for the episodes, check out the stills, find out the title of that music track that caught your attention, and then discuss the episode over in the forums (though beware of spoilers!). And don’t forget to vote in the polls to let us know what you thought of the episodes.

We’ve got some more information about the Vampire Diaries being available for download on iTunes in the UK. Looks like ITV are trying something radical to help build a buzz for the show before it premieres next year, and to also try and encourage UK fans to download it via a legal route and combat piracy. The first ten episodes that have already aired in USA are going to be released on iTunes over the coming weeks, with (and this is the best bit) the remaining twelve episodes being made available for download in the UK the day after they’ve aired the USA. The pilot is now available for download in Standard Definition for £1.89 or in High Definition for £2.49. UK fans, enjoy catching up. You’re in for a treat.

And if you’re in London, don’t forget to head over to the Apple store on Regent Street this evening, where Nina, Paul and Ian will be from 5:30pm to promote the Vampire Diaries and answer fan questions.

That’s right, folks. We finally have a date for the Vampire Diaries in the UK. According to Digital Spy, British fans need to mark down Sunday, 24th January, 2010 at 9pm on ITV2. If you have plans for that date, now is a great time to rearrange them.

UPDATE: Guardian article now saying UK premiere is in February.

As we’ve mentioned previously, Nina Dobrev, Paul Wesley and Ian Somerhalder are headed off to London for a few days to promote the TV series. HeatWorld is reporting that the trio are going to be at the Apple Store on Regent Street on Saturday, 12th December from 5.30pm, so UK fans should head on down there to ask them questions. HeatWorld is also reporting that the pilot will be available for download on iTunes in the UK tomorrow, for those who want to get their paws on it before the end of January.

During that dreadfully long hiatus week between the airing of “Lost Girls” and “Haunted” we posted a poll to find out which episode was your favourite at that point. “Lost Girls” was the overwhelming winner of that particular poll, beating the other episodes by over 1,000 votes. We’ve had four more episodes since then (and an even longer hiatus to somehow survive), and comments in the blog and forums seem to suggest you all think each episode has been better than the last. So, we figured we’d put that to the test. Is “Lost Girls” still your favourite episode? Or has a new episode that’s aired since won a place in your heart? Vote in the poll, and let us know what stands out for you most of all in the series so far – characters, scenes, music. Whatever you’ve found memorable, tell us in the comments.
