Disney+: Schedule Status & Listings 10th to 28th March 2025 |

Following the release of two streaming-exclusive specials, season 36 proper premieres on the streaming service on Monday, March 17th. Woo-hoo! They kick the run off with the first five episodes of the season, listed below; early indications are that they'll be releasing the remainder of the season in batches every four weeks or so. |

Channel 4 & E4: Schedule Status & Listings 10th to 28th March 2025 |
E4 are currently airing the show on weekdays at 4pm, 4:30pm and 6:30pm. We get season 14 then 11 and then 20 in the 4pm hour, and season 8 (the latter returning to terrestrial after some time with Sky) in the 6:30pm slot. From the 24th, we also get an 8am double-bill featuring season 11. And on Fridays, we get a triple-bill of season 17 from 7:30pm, repeated Saturdays at the same time. It's good news on weekends too: we get a handful of episodes from season 8 on Sunday teatimes, and even better, the terrestrial premiere of season 32 continues. E4 are airing that season in double-bills on Sundays from 8pm, with repeats on the subsequent Thursdays and Fridays at 7pm (those are in addition to all of the slots mentioned above!). Friend of the page Christopher Wickham has some commentary on what E4 may or may not be cutting from their broadcasts. What's even more exciting is that, as confirmed in a press release, E4 will be the home of the show's linear, broadcast premieres in the UK moving forward, inheriting Sky's mantle. From season 36, Disney+ will be premiering the show in the UK and Ireland, with E4 then broadcasting the season later in the year. What of seasons 33 to 35, which Sky have premiered and C4 have not yet inherited the rights to? I feel certain they will eventually show up on E4, but presumably Sky's legacy contract will determine when that will eventually be. The show also remains on Channel 4 during weekend daytimes, with the usual hodgepodge of episodes on Saturday and Sunday mornings. There's a good number of overnight slots there, too, occasionally bleeding right through to the early morning. They're currently mostly airing seasons 19 and 24, though other seasons occasionally appear too. Between C4 and E4, the Channel 4 suite have double the number of broadcasts of Sky at the moment. Episodes starting between midnight and 5am are listed as part of the previous day's schedule, similar to most print TV guides. Note that all episodes are simulcast on Channel 4 HD or E4 HD and can be viewed one hour later on their timeshift services, Channel 4 +1 and E4 +1. |

RTÉ2: Schedule Status & Listings 10th to 28th March 2025 |
RTÉ2 are currently airing season 29 in the usual 4:30pm weekday slot; that's followed by selections from a variety of seasons before moving on to season 31. Occasional bonus episodes appear on Wednesday, Friday and Saturday evenings. As usual, some episodes are skipped due to content concerns. |

Sky Showcase are currently broadcasting four episodes a weeknight, from 5pm to 6pm and then 7pm to 8pm. (The US Office occupies the 6pm hour.) Weekends remain less predictable, typically home to six or more episodes throughout the day. Currently airing: season 15, in two concurrent runs - generally, that's one run in the 5pm, 7pm or 7:30pm weekday slots, and a repeat either in a 5:30pm weekday slot, or on a weekend. Following that is season 21, and then season 27. As discussed above, premieres of the show in the UK and Ireland will now take place on Disney+, followed later by E4. So we won't be getting season 36 on Sky anytime soon. It's hard to know what Sky's long-term strategy will be with the show now, once the jewel in Sky One's crown; but there's no shortage of repeat broadcasts in the short term, clearly. As always, some episodes deemed unsuitable for daytime broadcast are skipped, and some episodes don't get a second run depending on Sky's weekend schedule. Episodes starting between midnight and 5am are listed as part of the previous day's schedule, similar to most print TV guides. |
