Blaze tonight — primetime and the evening schedule

Here’s the Blaze primetime line-up for tonight, Saturday 19 September 2026.

History’s Greatest Mysteries — Blaze, 6pm, 7pm and 8pm

Three episodes run back to back to open the evening (series 4, episodes 20, 21 and 23), each one built around a single unsolved case rather than a continuing story, so there’s no real penalty for joining partway through any of the three.

World War Weird — Blaze, 9pm

A new episode of World War Weird (series 3, episode 6) digs into the odder corners of wartime history that don’t fit a conventional battle documentary.

Secret Wars Uncovered — Blaze, 10pm

Secret Wars Uncovered returns with a fresh case file (series 2, episode 8), covering an operation that stayed off the public record at the time.

Bermuda Triangle: Into Cursed Waters — Blaze, 11pm

The night closes with Bermuda Triangle: Into Cursed Waters (series 2, episode 1), revisiting the disappearances that gave the stretch of ocean its reputation.

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.

Blaze launched under A+E Networks UK in September 2016 and is now run by Hearst Networks UK, a joint venture between Hearst and Sky Group, following A+E Networks EMEA’s 2024 rebrand to Hearst Networks EMEA.

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 evening opens on three History’s Greatest Mysteries episodes back to back from 6pm, then new editions of World War Weird and Secret Wars Uncovered take 9pm and 10pm. Bermuda Triangle: Into Cursed Waters closes the night at 11pm. The daytime rotation is the usual one: Paranormal Survivor, In Search Of Aliens and Killer Britain overnight, then Storage Wars, The UnXplained, National Park Mysteries and Mysteries From Above carrying breakfast through the afternoon.
