LISTINGS SOURCE: Channel4.com, Digiguide

Channel 4 are currently airing season 28 in the 6pm weekday slot; it's followed by season 29. As it's the summer holidays, we also get 11:05am weekday doubles, which are currently home to season 15; that's followed by season 3.

On Sunday lunchtimes on C4, we get season 9. Saturday and Sunday mornings are usually home to repeats of episodes broadcast between the prior Sunday and Friday.

As always, some episodes deemed unsuitable for daytime broadcast are skipped, or broadcast only late at night - see listings below for details. There are also a number of additional late night/early morning repeats (usually around 4am) over on 4seven.

Episodes starting between midnight and 5:30am are listed as part of the previous day's schedule, similar to most print TV guides. Note that all episodes that air on Channel 4 are simulcast on Channel 4 HD and can be viewed one hour later on their timeshift service, Channel 4 +1.

Sky Showcase currently broadcast four episodes on weekdays: one at 5pm, then three from 6:30pm to 8pm. Weekends are a little less predictable, but we usually get a decent number of episodes - usually between three and eight a day, spread across the morning, afternoon and evening.

Currently airing: season 4, in two concurrent runs - one primetime (6:30pm and later, except Saturday), one out-of-primetime (pre-6:30pm). Season 5 follows. There are also some episodes of season 1 filling up random weekend slots. As always, some episodes deemed unsuitable for daytime broadcast are skipped.

There are several weekdays with fewer episodes than normal, due to sports coverage; see full listings below. Note that episodes starting between midnight and 5:30am are listed as part of the previous day's schedule, similar to most print TV guides.
