Eccleston as Claude, the Invisible Man, with Peter Petrelli, a main character in Heroes. (Thanks to www.herosite.net).
Yes, I have managed to get a photograph of the Invisible Man. I hope it was worth the wait for the solution to this riddle posted last month!Christopher Eccleston left Dr Who and now appears (sic) in the Science Fantasy "Comic" TV Programme that is the Number 1 Programme on US TV, Heroes. He plays a mutant human with the ability to make himself (and anything he touches) invisible.
He is not in the main cast list; indeed, a main character, Peter Petrelli, has absorbed his powers. Yeah, and people fly too and can blow up with the power of an atomic bomb. This programme is great fun and unpredictable. Characters are introduced, one becomes convinced they are fundamental to the story-arc and, suddenly they die! And, unlike some series such as Lost (when Locke dies but comes back), they stay dead. The character Claude, was selected by Eccleston because it was atypically a hero that the show wanted a Brit to play instead of the ubiquitous villain.
Trivia from Wikipedia: "In episode "The Fix", Claude exclaims 'Fantastic!' - his catchphrase as the Ninth Doctor."
