Misfits

Misfits, Tuesdays from 3 May, 11:05pm, Channel 4

Everyone's favourite ASBO teens, Nathan (Robert Sheehan), Kelly (BAFTA-nominee Lauren Socha), Curtis (Nathan Stewart-Jarrett), Alisha (Antonia Thomas) and Simon (Iwan Rheon) transfer to Channel4 for the second series of E4's hit comedy drama Misfits, after a successful showing on E4 earlier in the year.

So to recap; a freak storm left our posse of social outcasts with super powers;  Curtis can turn back time, Kelly can read minds, Simon can turn invisible and Alisha can send people into a sexual frenzy with just one touch.  Then there's their two dead probation workers (one is buried under the local environmental monitoring station; the other stored in a freezer in the community centre).  And finally, unbeknownst to the others, Nathan is trapped six feet under in a coffin, immortal and very much alive.

But it's not just the ASBO Five who were affected by the storm. With the super-charged local townsfolk going the way of Gotham City, each week as we head back to the community centre our gang will be faced with a whole new world of weird and wild characters.

And just who IS the masked, hooded stranger who seems to be watching their every move? A force for good? An evil arch-nemesis intent on bringing about our gang's destruction
