Vanishing Heroes Unmasked

Heroes Unmasked will not be returning for Volume 4

Anyone else noticed that behind-the-scenes documentary Heroes Unmasked has disappeared from the BBC2 schedules? And that the BBC web site has said it’s not coming back for Volume 4?

If you’ve never seen Gossip Girl, you’ve missed out on the wonderful Chuck Bass, played by the surprisingly British Ed Westwick (he’s from Stevenage you know). So happily, The CW are currently running a promo in which you can ‘learn to speak Bass’ and which serves as a useful little introduction to Chuck and his ways. Go on and watch – it’s only a minute long. You might like it.
