OT:BBC2 advertising HEROES.   
Watched Still Game on BBC2 Thursday night at 10:00pm, and after it they 
had a four second trailer for Heroes. No broadcast time or date yet just 
the title on screen for a few seconds.

There was one on this afternoon on BBC1 giving a start date  of the 25th
July if I heard it right.

I shall definitely have to watch it as they've just cast Dominic Keating
in a recurring role for Season 2....

You're welcome.  

I've heard a lot of good things about this show too - I just hope it
lives up to them :-)

I liked it , but didn't think it was quite as amazing as a lot of people 
make out.

Well worth watching though

It really is unmissable. The plot, acting, everything is top grade.
The whole series gets 9/10 from me, and only loses a point because it
had to end.

Now you see I just don't get that, I couldn't get into Jericho for
some reason, I watched 5 episodes and found myself bored so
I gave up.

my favourite new show from last season.

Really?? I didn't think S3 compared to S1 or S2.
It seemed to be very lacking and focused far too much on an average
quality plot with few facets.

It just seemed... weak. It wasn't as involved as the previous seasons.

A few of the mid series eps had a bit of a "filler" feel to them , but on 
the whole it rocked.
There were several edge of the seat bits and the finest sci-fi battles ever 
shot

Further stuff from DigitalSpy:

"A special episode of Top Gear has been lined up to lead into the
terrestrial premiere of Heroes on BBC Two next Wednesday.

"The BBC is billing the Top Gear special - which will also be
available in high definition - as the "most ambitious and arduous
challenge" yet.

"Jeremy Clarkson, James May and Richard Hammond attempt to race from
Northern Canada to the North Pole, 450 miles away," the BBC announced.
"The terrain in between is some of the toughest on earth - a mix of
mountainous land masses and jagged sea ice where temperatures can drop
to a mind-numbing minus 65 degrees Celsius. Jeremy and James will be
driving a specially adapted pick up truck whilst Richard will be
travelling on something a little less high tech - a sled pulled by a
team of ten Canadian Inuit Dogs."

"The hour-long special will air at 8pm before NBC's Heroes makes its
terrestrial debut at 9pm."

As a long-time Top Gear fan (stop that heckling at the back) and big-
time Heroes fan, sounds like a good evening in to me.

.... except I am in Spain... ARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHH!!!

Hope my Mother doesn't mind me monopolising her satellite dish for a
couple of hours Wednesday evening!
