Blaze TV Guide: Listings, Schedule & What’s On Blaze Tonight

Published: 31 August 2026

Blaze is a free-to-air factual channel that has run on Freeview since September 2016. Its schedule runs from military history documentaries to ancient-mystery programming, and factual entertainment formats set in pawn shops and storage units fill much of the rest of the day. Tonight, Tuesday 1 September 2026, Junk & Disorderly opens the evening at 6pm with a high-value petroliana auction. Dickinson’s Real Deal then holds 7pm and 8pm with a back-to-back pair of valuation compilations, before the schedule turns to true crime: Hells Angels: Kingdom Come at 9pm, a Gangland Chronicles double bill covering the Medellín Cartel and Sonny Barger at 10pm and 10:30pm, and Mega Disasters 3 closing the night at 11pm with the South Fork Dam collapse of 1889.

What’s on Blaze today

Tuesday’s schedule opens overnight with The Curse Of Civil War Gold at midnight and UFOs: The White House Files at 1am. Killer Britain with Dermot Murnaghan looks back at the Mitesh Patel case at 2am, and three consecutive editions of Hardcore Pawn then carry the small hours through to 5am, when Dickinson’s Real Deal takes over.

Breakfast pairs two editions of Pawn Stars with two of Storage Wars Canada and two of Storage Hunters. Eight editions of Storage Wars then run from 9:20am to 12:35pm, though it isn’t a straight run through one series — three episodes from series 6 give way to five from series 7, shown out of their broadcast order. Pawn Stars returns at 1:05pm, the Storage Wars Canada and Ancient Aliens pairings repeat across the afternoon, and two editions of Close Encounters take 5pm and 5:30pm before the evening’s Junk & Disorderly begins at 6pm.

Blaze tonight — primetime and the evening schedule

Here’s the Blaze primetime line-up for tonight, Tuesday 1 September 2026.

Junk & Disorderly — Blaze, 6pm

Junk & Disorderly opens the evening (series 2, episode 2) with a high-value petroliana auction, the sort of sale where an old enamel forecourt sign can outbid the car parked next to it.

Dickinson’s Real Deal — Blaze, 7pm and 8pm

Two back-to-back editions of Dickinson’s Real Deal (series 9, episodes 74 and 75) follow, continuing straight on from two earlier instalments of the same run at 5am and 6am — four outings for the strand across the day.

Hells Angels: Kingdom Come — Blaze, 9pm

Hells Angels: Kingdom Come (series 1, episode 2, “Traitors Within”) carries a fresh “New” flag in the listings tonight, but the run itself opened last night. This episode deals with the fallout from a failed assassination attempt and the betrayal it exposes within the club.

Gangland Chronicles — Blaze, 10pm and 10:30pm

A Gangland Chronicles double bill covers two very different chapters of organised crime: the rise and fall of the Medellín Cartel at 10pm (series 1, episode 3), then the Hells Angels’ formative years under Sonny Barger at 10:30pm (episode 4).

Mega Disasters 3 — Blaze, 11pm

The night closes with the story of the South Fork Dam collapse of 1889 — the failure that caused the catastrophic Johnstown Flood.

What kind of shows are on Blaze

Military and world history documentaries

This is the strand worth setting a reminder for, and it rewards anyone who has already worked through the more familiar documentaries elsewhere. Hitler’s Engineers and U-Boat Wargamers go after corners of the Second World War that don’t get the rotation the D-Day landings and the Battle of Britain do, and both are made with more care than the channel’s reputation would lead you to expect.

Ancient mysteries and the unexplained

Ancient Aliens, The UnXplained with William Shatner, Weird Britain and MonsterQuest account for more hours than anything else on Blaze. The evidence base is viral footage, satellite imagery and eyewitness account rather than anything that has been through review. Watch accordingly.

Factual entertainment and reality

Storage Wars Canada, Pawn Stars and Dickinson’s Real Deal hold the daytime. Ordinary people, real money, modest budgets, and nobody involved pretending it is anything more than that.

How to watch Blaze

Channel numbers

Blaze is free on all of the above platforms, with no subscription required. Virgin Media and Freesat channel numbers may vary slightly depending on your box and region, so your on-screen guide is the definitive source if these don’t match.

Streaming online

Blaze streams live and free at watch.blaze.tv and via the free BLAZE app on iOS, Android, Amazon Fire TV and select smart TVs. No account, subscription or payment card is needed to watch the live stream.

Blaze streaming and catch-up

Blaze runs a Freeview +1 timeshift channel on 92, which is useful when you land on the 9pm show twenty minutes in and would rather start it properly. There is no +1 on Sky, Virgin or Freesat, so Freeview is the only route to a delayed watch.

The BLAZE app and website also carry a real catch-up library rather than a token one. New episodes are typically added daily and stay on demand for around 30 days.

Verdict

Blaze knows what it is and doesn’t oversell it, which on most nights is enough. The military history slot is the reason to keep the channel in mind at all: Hitler’s Engineers would hold its own two hundred channel numbers lower down. The unexplained material is lighter, fine as entertainment provided you don’t go to it for evidence. The pawn shops and storage lockers ask nothing of you, which some evenings is the whole appeal.

Tonight’s shape leans toward true crime after an opening hour in a car park: Junk & Disorderly gets first billing at 6pm with a petroliana auction, then Dickinson’s Real Deal doubles up at 7pm and 8pm before the mood turns properly dark. Hells Angels: Kingdom Come and a Gangland Chronicles double bill make a tidy 9pm-to-10:30pm run, and Mega Disasters 3 closes out the night with the 1889 South Fork Dam disaster. The daytime works through eight Storage Wars episodes spanning two series, plus repeated Pawn Stars, Storage Wars Canada and Ancient Aliens slots, before Close Encounters hands over to the evening at 5pm.
