Channel 6 lands 'Heroes' in Ireland
Channel 6 has picked up the rights to air Heroes in Ireland - and is wasting no time in putting the show on air.

The deal with NBC Universal was unveiled yesterday (Monday) and covers the first-run, free TV rights to the first season of the cult series in Ireland.

C6 founder Michael Murphy said of the acquisition: "New shows are always a risk, but I think the strength of the ensemble cast coupled with its imaginative storyline will win fans in Ireland just as it has in the US."

The first two episodes air this Thursday (March 1) from 9.30pm.
