ITV2 has commissioned Tiger Aspect to make No Heroics, an exclusive comedy sitcom featuring a stellar Britcom cast including Patrick Baladi (The Office, Mistresses, Party Animals, Bodies), Nicholas Burns (Benidorm, Nathan Barley, Man Stroke Woman, Roman’s Empire), James Lance (Moving Wallpaper, Teachers, Smack The Pony, Spaced), Claire Keelan (Sorted, Nathan Barley) and Rebekah Staton (Pulling, Mysterious Creatures, State of Play).

The six-part series is brand new for 2008 and sees a group of British off-duty superheroes living their day to day life, which for supposed saviours of the world is actually rather normal – as they just can’t be arsed. Instead this group of b-listers would rather get drunk in their local superheroes-only pub, The Fortress and commiserate at their lack of superiority.
