Yep water pump not pumping or thermostat stuck shut.
Even if the pump is spinning it might have disintergrated inside
Easy check - take out the stat and see if it opens and closes at the right temperature in a saucepan of water

Yeah could to, is the overheating according to the gauge or have you measured the temp of the head or something?
Would be worth picking up a cheap IR temp gun to check accurately - I thought I had an overheat problem but it turned out the gauge was over reading
What engine btw?
