BBC 2 to show Heroes

Maybe I'll watch Heroes after all, the BBC have just bought it to show on BBC 2, BBC Two puts its faith in Heroes.

This is interesting. It's been ages since the BBC bought a big US import, they've mainly gone to Channel 4, Five or (spit) Sky. Perhaps a change of heart? (Or they got it cheap because Sky spent all their money on Lost?) No dates mentioned, just "next year".
