According to http://www.heavens-above.com we get a couple of over-flights by the International Space Station tonight.

Here in North Wales there will be three opportunities to see it pass, beginning: 19.15, 20.50 and 22.25 (all times BST) with each pass lasting 4-5 minutes 'horizon to horizon'.
Using the Heavens Above website, will enable you to enter your location and see times, vector and altitude in "ISS - All Passes".

You can`t mistake ISS for anything else overhead; it`s large, bright and fast moving!
Get the binoculars out and see if you can see the station`s solar array during it`s over-flight.

Just been outside watching the ISS pass overhead; the perceived speed and brightness on approach was most impressive and the multiple sunlight reflections from the ISS`s solar arrays was clearly evident (even using my el-cheapo binoculars).

Well worth being eaten alive by my garden`s nocturnal midgies!

Good spot!

Its quite bright here, so not very good for spotting things 

[Dishevelled Den]

Seen   Impressive indeed 8-)

According to the site, it should be passing again in about 10 minutes (for those in the south of England).  Will be very low in the sky though, so might not catch a glimpse at all.
