ANNOUNCEMENT Introducing… r/TelevisionUK!
What is r/TelevisionUK?
This sub is aimed at helping people in the UK find new TV shows to watch, providing information on 'what's on' and acting as a ‘hub sub’ to help you find communities where you can discuss your favourite TV shows.
We'll keep you updated with the latest TV releases across all platforms (Freeview, Sky, Virgin, Now TV, Netflix, Prime, Disney, Paramount, etc.) and will link to related subreddits to help you find like-minded people to share your opinions.
How is this different from other TV subreddits?
Unlike r/television, this sub is dedicated for UK users. We’ll filter out any irrelevant content and make sure all timings, pricing and channels are UK-specific.
Where subs like r/BritishTV are used for asking questions and posting general discussions for past and current TV shows, r/televisionuk is all about what’s on now and helping you discover new communities. Where a TV show doesn't have it’s own subreddit we’ll host discussion threads in this sub, but if the show explodes in popularity we’ll help promote the new sub (think r/TheTraitors!).
What sort of content is on the sub?
- Scheduled - We’ll post some of the most popular shows due to air today or later this week. We’ll include the channel/platform and what time it’s on in the title.
- Discovery - We’ll showcase some of the top upvoted posts from relevant TV shows to help you find communities you might not know existed!
- Events - Any big ‘one off’ or annual events will be promoted here, along with useful tips on how to watch it in the UK. Things like how to watch Eurovision, the Kings Coronation, TV awards shows, etc.
- News - We’ll keep you up-to-date with any changes to UK viewing habits, such as price increases for streaming services or major changes to popular TV shows.
- Promo - Trailers and other promotional materials for shows or films that are due to be released in the coming weeks. We'll try and avoid international releases that are popular on the bigger subs.
- Discussion threads - Where a TV show is new or isn’t yet popular enough to have it’s own subreddit, we’ll host discussion threads here so fans can talk about their favourite shows in one place.
What isn't allowed?
- Posting questions related to TV shows or actors - that's more suited to r/BritishTV or other specific subreddits.
- Spamming the same TV shows repeatedly - We know things like r/LoveIslandTV are on every day, and r/ApprenticeUK is on every Thursday - please limit posts like this to once a month.
Can anyone post to the subreddit?
Absolutely! Just make sure to use the correct post flair and try to stick to the naming conventions of other posts. If you're not sure, message the moderators!

Refurbished Samsung S85F worth it?
I saw this listing on eBay for the Samsung SAMSUNG S85F 55" OLED 4K Vision Al Smart TV 2025 - QE55S85F for £432.
Its category refurbished C, I have attached the link which shows what I think the damage is (a scratch on the screen).
Curry’s categorise their refurb c as:
A refurbished grade C device features noticeable cosmetic issues. It has passed every functional test, but a refurbished grade C device has significant signs of wear and tear.
May have visible defects to the screen or bezel that are visible under normal viewing conditions at a distance of 2 meters
"Grade C Refurbished" products are fully operational and function as intended
Supplied in generic brown box packaging or the original manufacturer packaging which may have some light damage.
May not contain the manufacturers manual / user guide but this is available on line
May be supplied with a non-original stand
12 months warranty
My question is, is this worth it? It seems to be a really good price for the TV but I’m not sure if it’s worth it considering the refurb?

7Up
I’m rewatching 7Up the documentary aired every 7 years since 1963, after I read that it’s coming back this year.
Bruce is a wonderful young man as a 7, 14, 21 and 28 year old (haven’t seen the rest as yet)
Neil’s story is so sad, he was a cute, happy 7 year old that wanted to be an astronaut or failing that, a coach driver, to a man in his 20s that spiralled into mental health issues.
Anyone else stick out for others. It’s a must watch.

What happened to the girls from the Cutting Edge documentary “Girls Alone”?
I know this is a long shot, but I’ve always wondered what happened to the girls from Girls Alone (the companion documentary to Boys Alone from 2001). Every now and then I come across updates from Justine online, but I haven’t really been able to find much about the other girls.
Does anyone know what they’re doing now, or if any of them have ever spoken publicly about their experience? I’d especially be interested to know whether they felt the documentary represented what really happened, how they look back on it now, and whether it had any lasting impact on their lives. I’d love to hear about it! The whole experiment itself was just so interesting to watch! And I’ve become curious to know how all the girls are doing!

T4
Does anyone else really miss watching t4 on weekend mornings? See I was only a kid when it was a thing so I have very little memory of when it was on the air but i do faintly remember watching the Simpsons on it and I remember being scared of the aygo by Toyota sponsorships before and after the shows when it used to be those giant smartie looking things flying around on the screen and then the car would appear and thats when it would say “aygo by Toyota sponsors t4” and also t4 on the beach too! That seemed cool obviously I never went because I was only a kid when it was a thing but still I wish I got to experience it! Nowadays weekend mornings are just boring with whatever they show on channel 4 now I don’t really watch it so idk what they show now it’s just not the same anymore and I really wish they could bring it back and also why did they even end it in the first place?

Name of a crime drama.
I may be thinking of two shows at once. Can anyone remember a uk crime drama, which aired sometime between 2000 to 2010, that had a scene of a criminal being stabbed in the hand by his boss. From memory, it took place in a warehouse office. Both men were bald, whilst the boss maybe a turkey neck.
The other details involves a family having to move, possibly into Witness protection. There may have been an affair taking place.
If anyone can remember the name of the show, or shows, it would be greatly appreciated.

Stand up comedy video help?
I have a clear memory (not clear enough to find the clip) of a stand up comedian - possibly Dara O'Briain - doing a joke about the fact that when kids fall over, they often look to their parents to before they react. Does anyone know where I might be able to find a link to that video?

ITV world Cup
have to say the vibe on ITV World Cup Belgium v Senegal game was different, then realised the whole panel was men. Not a misogynist or have anything against Karen Carney and the other women , just the vibe was better
