Devlin muscles in on Alex's latest 'job', while Sarah and Jenny meet their fanclub - with less than spectacular results.
Community service isn't quite as much fun as Sarah anticipated, Alex's attempts at acquiring a 'bad boy' image prove fruitless, and Jenny finds that perhaps learning what people's powers are before ...
Jenny's attempt at working a normal job fails, Sarah 's attempt to offend her parents is a success, and Don's attempts at therapy work quite well for him: for the rest of the group, not so much.

London. An ordinary city, with one small difference: superheroes - commonly called 'capes' - exist. But apart from their powers, they're ordinary people, with the same problems the rest of us have. They spend much of their downtime in the basement bar The Fortress ('superheroes only: no masks, no powers, no heroics') but when not there or on duty they garden, go shopping, and do the laundry just like everyone else. No Heroics focuses on four friends and the trials and tribulations of their lives, but these superheroes are at best B-listers, and constantly insulted and bullied by the arrogant Devlin - Excelsor, the most successful cape of his generation.

If you didn't find this hilarious, witty, refreshing Brit comedy series to your taste, then consider that you likely have no taste.
It's cast is full of actors known for roles in brilliant shows such as Peep Show, Nathan Barley, The Office and Noel Fielding's Luxury Comedy.
The premise is great and the characters are a likeable group of second rate misfits jostling for some recognition and dealing with life as a super hero.
Watch it, you won't regret it.
