Channel 4 & 4seven: Schedule Status & Listings 10th to 31st May 2024 |
Channel 4 are currently primarily airing season 29 in the show's now-settled 6:30pm weekday home. Season 11 follows. On Sunday mornings and lunchtimes on C4, we currently get episodes from all over the shop, but seasons 5, 6, 13 (returning from Sky) and 17 dominate. And on Saturday mornings, we generally see repeats of episodes broadcast throughout the prior week. There are also a number of late-night episodes on C4, from a range of seasons - some episodes they clearly deem unsuitable for the 6pm slot, and some that there's not really a clear reason for burying there. Still nothing over on 4seven at the moment, though. 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 have settled on typically broadcasting four episodes a weeknight, from 5pm to 6pm and then 7pm to 8pm. (The US Office occupies the 6pm hour.) Weekends are less predictable, typically home to six or more episodes per day, but occasionally fewer due to sports coverage. Currently airing: season 26, in two concurrent runs - largely, 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 run is season 9, and then season 20. The best news, of course, is that the UK premiere of season 35 continues each Sunday, repeated each Friday - and as we approach season's end, we are now only a few weeks behind the US. Times vary, as usual:
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. 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. |
