Heroes S2
The second season of the BAFTA winning US drama comes home to SCI FI. Having catapulted the first series to dizzy heights of popularity back in 2007, British fans have been waiting to see the next instalment return to the channel following its terrestrial premiere. After what can only be described as a gasp-inducing first season finale - where Peter Petrelli (MILO VENTIMIGLIA) went nuclear over New York City - the first episode is called FOUR MONTHS LATER and reveals the fate of the exploding hero, along with elder brother Nathan (ADRIAN PASDAR), policeman Matt (GREG GRUNBERG) and the psychotic Sylar (ZACHARY QUINTO).
