Misfits will be back for its final ever run this month. Series 5 premieres Wednesday 23rd October at 10pm on E4.

Once again there are eight episodes. See the synopsis for the opener below:

The series marks the first anniversary of the storm, and the gang have to up their game if they’re going to tackle some real-life, A-grade, superpowered vigilantes. In the opening episode, handsome barman Alex (Matt Stokoe) discovers that he has acquired a strange new superpower that he has to use on one of the gang. The ensuing chaos sees Alex doing community service and finally joining the rest of the guys in orange. Meanwhile, Rudy’s (Joseph Gilgun) downbeat alter ego joins a mysterious new support group deep in the heart of the estate. At this safe haven for people struggling with their superpowers, Rudy meets a man trapped in a turtle’s body, an old lady who knits jumpers that reveal the future, and someone familiar… the terrifying Tim (Matt Cross), who believes he is living in a Grand Theft Auto-style computer game.
