UK TV Premiere Dates: 2024 Calendar
Here's a handy guide to release dates on UK television in 2024.
You could go outside. Stand on the pavement for a brief moment to savour some warm sun on your back while filling your lungs with fresh air and the bubblegum-flavoured vape clouds of schoolchildren. But really, is it worth the bother? Inside is where it’s really happening. Inside is where the television lives.
Here’s a big look ahead to the new British drama coming up in 2024. This week, there’s brand new Taskmaster, two new series starring the cast of Derry Girls in the form of comedy Big Mood and historical fantasy Renegade Nell. Wunmi Mosaku continues to lead creepy new Brit mystery Passenger on ITV1. Over on Netflix is still big, thinky sci-fi 3 Body Problem. And if big, thinky sci-fi shows are your bag, then the finale of Peter Harness’ Constellation arrives this week on Apple TV+.
And we’re still in the looooooooong wait until May 11, when Ncuti Gatwa and Millie Gibson return in the TARDIS for the new Doctor Who episodes. See the first trailer here. It must almost be time for another one.
We’ll update this list of TV highlights weekly with more shows, dates and times as the release announcements arrive. If you’re based in the US, here’s where to look for the relevant info.
