Channel 4 & E4: Schedule Status & Listings 18th May to 5th June 2026 |
It's all change at E4, with more broadcasts of the show than ever before! Weekdays on E4 are now home to quadruple-bills from noon to 2pm and five or six episodes between 5pm and 8pm - with occasional overnight spots too. The 5pm-to-7pm block is home to season 9, then 14, then 20 and then 26. Those episodes are then repeated a week later in the noon-to-2pm block (with a few exceptions for episodes E4 don't deem suitable for daytime broadcast). Additionally, the 7pm hour sees season 4 episodes daily at 7:30pm, and season 15 episodes on Thursday and Friday at 7pm. As for the weekends - they're pretty rammed too! Specifics vary significantly from week to week, but you can count on a good number of broadcasts - six-plus a day, sometimes significantly more; typically heavy on repeats of episodes broadcast earlier that week, with some season 18, 21 and the recently-premiered season 33 too! Full details are below. We're not expecting anything else "new" on E4 until early 2027, when we should get seasons 34 and 37. Keep an eye out.. The show also remains on Channel 4 during weekend daytimes, with the usual selection of episodes on Saturday and Sunday mornings. There's a number of overnight slots there, too - sometimes repeats of the previous day's daytime slots - occasionally bleeding right through to the early morning. They're currently mostly airing seasons 5 and 6. 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. |
