Channel 4 are airing season 24 in the usual 6pm weekday slot. Following that is season 4, which returns to C4 after a couple of years away. On Sunday mornings and lunchtimes on C4, we get a mixture, before switching to season 2 from the 15th. Saturday mornings are usually home to repeats of episodes broadcast the prior Sunday to Friday. There are a few late night episodes, too, including some Treehouse of Horrors on C4, and a few repeats over on 4seven. No episode on Weds 11th due to an extended Hollyoaks episode. 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 most weekdays: one at 5pm, then three from 6:30pm to 8pm (sometimes four, and sometimes in 25-minute slots instead of half-hours). 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 21, returning to Sky after a couple of years away, in two concurrent runs - one primetime (6:30pm and later, except Saturday), one out-of-primetime (pre-6:30pm). Following that it's season 19, and then season 27, also returning to Sky for the first time in a while. Of course, the more exciting news: Sky's premiere run of season 34 continues from Sunday 15th Jan! Following the wintery "Top Goon", which premiered over Christmas, we skip back to the start of the run, with a new episode each Sunday moving forwards. We begin with "Habeas Tortoise", at 6pm on the 15th; we should then get "One Angry Lisa" on the 22nd. I expect these will also get a Friday encore each week, but this hasn't yet been confirmed. Look out for some additional episodes in the 8pm hour on certain days, and some Friday timings vary. As always, some episodes deemed unsuitable for daytime broadcast are skipped. 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. |
