Re: Heroes Season 3
1 week after the US. So when we get a US date just add 7days.

According to wikipedia the US get it September 22nd. So either the last week of September or beginning of October for the Beeb unless the deal fell through.

Re: Heroes Season 3
Link? I have not seen anything official yet. You would think a top show like this they would be advertising now no? Not even mentioned on the website - just says "this autumn".

Re: Heroes Season 3
That's why I have been thinking the deal fell through.

It was announced by the Beeb straight after Season 2 finished. I made a thread about it.


http://netgem21.vox.com/library/post...-with-usa.html

According to this site we get it September 25th, but that seems unlikely as we haven't heard anything.

Re: Heroes Season 3
Heroes season 3 countdown show on 26th Sept so hopefully means the start of the new season won't be too far behind. There's also a new episode of Heroes unmasked showing immediately after this.

Re: Heroes Season 3
They have started the clips with the actors looking through the number 2 again so it wont be far off.

Youve got to remember that the BBC dont plan their schedules any more than two weeks in advance so they will not give out any information more than "in the autumn" and your unlikely to get any adverts for it beyond the normal clips they show stating "coming in the autumn" before that two week window.

The HD listings for the Heroes' timeslots on Digiguide are showing TBA. Don't worry it will be simulcast on BBC HD. It is not unusual for BBC HD listings to be updated later than the main BBC channels.

Re: Heroes Season 3
It starts in the US on the 22nd with a clip show followed by the first two episodes.

BBC2 are showing the clip show, 'Heroes Countdown' on September 26 at 9pm.

The first episode is on on October 1 at 9pm on BBC HD, followed by episode 2 at 10pm also on BBC HD.

Re: Heroes Season 3
Sounds like BBC HD will be 1 week ahead ala Season 2, but then have to wait 1 week for the series finale.

Looks like a change of schedule. BBC HD is now simulcasting Silent Witness at 9pm and I assume the first Heroes episode will be at 10pm.

Although Digiguide shows it as episode 2 with no sign of episode 1 on BBC HD before then.

Surely a mistake?

I don't think it is, I just think BBC have totally screwed this up.

One lousy show I ever watch on the entire BBC and they can't even get it right. I pay £11 a month TV license to watch Heroes. lol Commie BS.

Re: Heroes Season 3
Certainly looks like Episode 1 will be on BBC2 only and not BBC HD whereas Episode 2 will be on BBC3 (complete with garish pink logo) and BBC HD.

How can they be so stupid as to think that screening the 2nd one in HD but not the first makes sense ?

Madness !!!

Unless the schedule changes the first episode is on Sunday on BBC HD. So you could record the second episode on Wednesday, and don't watch it until you've seen the first episode the following Sunday!!

No good for Freesat viewers though!!

That's exactly what I plan to do but it's bloody shoddy organisation on the part of the BBC.

At least you can record them both and watch them in the correct order.

Spare a thought for Freesat viewers who have no recording facility.
