More4 TV Guide: Listings, Schedule & What’s On More4 Tonight

Published: 18 September 2026

More4 is Channel 4’s factual and lifestyle channel: property shows, food formats and the fly-on-the-wall documentaries that would crowd out the main channel’s schedule. It launched on 10 October 2005 and has been free to air since 6 May 2008, when it dropped the subscription requirement it had briefly carried on satellite. Saturday 19 September 2026 runs a long Four in a Bed stretch into primetime, Griff’s Canadian Adventure takes the 8pm slot, and two 24 Hours in A&E episodes anchor the evening from 9pm. Full listings are below, with channel numbers further down the page.

What’s on More4 today

Saturday’s More4 schedule leans heavily on a handful of returning strands repeated many times over, and daytime is almost entirely given over to the same property and food formats as usual.

Overnight, 999: On the Front Line leads into two 24 Hours in A&E episodes, then Supermarkets Unwrapped: Fruit & Veg Aisle and the High Street shopping strand carry things through from 3:30am.

Four in a Bed then runs five episodes back to back from 8:55am, three A Place in the Sun episodes and five Come Dine with Me episodes fill the middle of the day, and a further five Four in a Bed episodes carry the schedule into tonight’s primetime. See below.

More4 tonight — primetime and the evening schedule

Here’s the More4 primetime line-up for tonight, Saturday 19 September 2026.

Four in a Bed — More4, 6:25pm

Third of five Four in a Bed episodes running back to back this evening, and the first to fall inside primetime, guest B&B owners taking it in turns to mark each other down (series 5, episode 28).

Four in a Bed — More4, 6:55pm

The run continues with a fourth episode (series 5, episode 29).

Four in a Bed — More4, 7:25pm

A fifth and final outing closes out the block before Griff’s Canadian Adventure takes over (series 5, episode 30).

Griff’s Canadian Adventure — More4, 8pm

Griff Rhys Jones’s travel documentary gets the 8pm slot tonight, ahead of the evening’s two documentary strands (series 1, episode 6).

24 Hours in A&E — More4, 9pm

The first of two episodes tonight, fixed cameras following whatever comes through the emergency department’s doors (series 19, episode 2).

24 Hours in A&E — More4, 10pm

A second episode follows straight after (series 19, episode 4).

999: On the Front Line — More4, 11:05pm

The night closes with the channel’s other emergency-services documentary, this one following ambulance crews rather than hospital staff (series 1, episode 9).

What kind of shows are on More4

Fly-on-the-wall documentary

This is the strand More4 is known for. 24 Hours in A&E and 999: On the Front Line both use the same method: fixed cameras, real emergencies, no reconstructions. Neither has changed that formula in over a decade of running.

Property and food formats

A Place in the Sun and Come Dine with Me anchor the daytime and early-evening schedule. One is about the fantasy of starting again somewhere warmer; the other is about strangers cooking for each other and being far too honest about the results. Four in a Bed does the same job for the B&B trade. Between them they account for most of what More4 broadcasts before 6pm.

Imported drama and classic comedy

More4 also fills gaps with imported crime drama, a fair amount of Nordic noir, and repeats from Channel 4’s own sitcom back-catalogue. It’s schedule filler between the factual strands rather than anything the channel commissions for itself.

More4 leans harder on returning formats than almost any channel on Freeview. Over 48 days we counted Four in a Bed 437 times here — an average of nine showings a day — from a run of 39 distinct programmes. See our study of repeats on UK television for the full channel-by-channel numbers.

Frequently asked questions

What’s on More4 tonight?

Three Four in a Bed episodes run through the start of primetime from 6:25pm, then Griff’s Canadian Adventure takes the 8pm slot, and two 24 Hours in A&E episodes anchor the evening from 9pm, closing on 999: On the Front Line at 11:05pm. Full times are in the schedule table above.

What time do the main documentaries start on More4?

More4’s documentary strands usually sit between 9pm and 11pm, after the property shows have had the earlier part of the evening. A new series launch or a one-off special can push that earlier, so check the on-screen guide if the evening looks different from usual.

Is More4 free to watch?

Yes, completely free on Freeview, Sky, Virgin Media and Freesat, with advertising breaks but no subscription fee.

Can I watch More4 online for free?

Yes. It streams live at channel4.com/now/m4 and through the Channel 4 app; you’ll need a free Channel 4 account. Most recent episodes also appear on demand shortly after broadcast.

Verdict

More4 doesn’t try to be flashy, and that’s the point. It’s where Channel 4 parks programming that works without gimmicks: a B&B owner docking marks over a soggy fry-up, or a family showing off a self-build years in the making. Today’s daytime leans hard on that formula, with Four in a Bed, A Place in the Sun and Come Dine with Me running thirteen episodes between them before the evening’s Four in a Bed run even starts.

Primetime keeps to the same familiar shape once that run wraps up: Griff’s Canadian Adventure takes the 8pm slot, then two 24 Hours in A&E episodes anchor the evening from 9pm, closing on 999: On the Front Line at 11:05pm. Nothing new tonight, but the fly-on-the-wall documentaries are the channel doing what it does best.
