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

Published: 21 August 2026

Really is Warner Bros. Discovery’s ghost-hunting and salvage-and-antiques channel. It arrived on Freeview in January 2026 and absorbed the old HGTV UK’s home-and-garden library on the way in, which is why the daytime grid now runs so heavily to saleroom telly. Tonight, Saturday 22 August 2026, The Repair Shop holds primetime from 6pm to 8pm across three separate episodes, before Death Walker With Nick Groff takes the 9pm slot and Help! My House Is Haunted closes the night with a double bill at 10pm and 11pm. Full breakdown below.

What’s on Really today

Saturday’s schedule opens with a pair of Help! My House Is Haunted cases from midnight, then Teleshopping takes the 2am-to-4am slot. Salvage Hunters runs two episodes from 4am, Fantasy Homes By The Sea takes 6am and Cruise TV with LoveitBookit takes 7am, then Salvage Hunters returns for two more episodes from 8am. The Yorkshire Auction House follows with back-to-back episodes at 10am and 11am, and from midday The Repair Shop takes over completely. Nine consecutive episodes run from noon straight through to 8pm — the whole afternoon and the first three hours of primetime — before Death Walker With Nick Groff breaks the run at 9pm.

Really tonight — primetime and the evening schedule

Here’s the Really primetime line-up for tonight, Saturday 22 August 2026. Just three unique titles fill the whole evening.

The Repair Shop — Really, 6pm to 8pm

Really runs The Repair Shop nine times today without a break, from noon through to 8pm, and the last three of those sit inside primetime: series 7 episode 30 at 6pm, episode 32 at 7pm and episode 27 at 8pm. Different craftspeople handle different jobs each hour, but the format doesn’t change — something broken arrives, a specialist works on it, an owner gets it back. Nine episodes in one day is a heavy stretch even by this channel’s standards.

Death Walker With Nick Groff — Really, 9pm

Nick Groff, working alongside his wife Tessa, turns to the Herschell Carrousel Factory Museum in North Tonawanda, New York for this case. The EPG flags it as new, but it’s series 5 episode 20 rather than a launch — the season has been running for weeks and this is simply the next stop on the map.

Help! My House Is Haunted — Really, 10pm and 11pm

A double bill closes the night, two separate cases from two different series of the show. The 10pm investigation is series 7 episode 4, and the 11pm follow-up is an older case pulled from series 5, episode 14. Neither is flagged as new; both are deep into their respective runs.

What kind of shows are on Really

Paranormal and ghost-hunting

This is what Really is for. Death Walker With Nick Groff and Help! My House Is Haunted anchor most weeknight evenings, and both work from named, specific properties rather than the moody reconstructions cheaper ghost shows fall back on.

Home, antiques and lifestyle repeats

The daytime grid is where HGTV UK’s old audience ended up. The Repair Shop, Salvage Hunters, The Yorkshire Auction House and Fantasy Homes By The Sea run in long repeated stretches, several series deep, none of it first-run. Overnight the schedule gives up on programming altogether and sells you cruises and teleshopping until 4am.

How to watch Really

Channel numbers

Here’s where to find Really across the main UK television platforms:

No subscription on any of them. The +1 exists on Sky and Virgin Media only, not on Freeview. Freesat and Virgin numbers drift a little by region and by box, so trust your on-screen guide over this table if the two disagree.

Streaming online

Really streams live and free through discovery+, Warner Bros. Discovery’s ad-supported app, on smart TVs, iOS, Android and most streaming sticks. A free account gets you the live channel and a rolling catch-up window on recent episodes, paid for in ad breaks rather than cash.

Really sister channels

Older write-ups still file Really under UKTV. They are out of date. It now sits in Warner Bros. Discovery’s UK stable next to Quest, Quest Red, Discovery Channel, Food Network and DMAX. Quest is the closest relation of the lot, sharing programmes with Really outright, Salvage Hunters among them, which is part of why that title turns up so often on both grids. Dave, Drama, Yesterday and W stayed behind with UKTV and BBC Studios, so they are a different family now whatever the old listings pages say.

Frequently asked questions

What’s on Really tonight?

The Repair Shop takes primetime across three episodes from 6pm to 8pm, Death Walker With Nick Groff follows at 9pm, and a Help! My House Is Haunted double bill closes the night at 10pm and 11pm. Three unique titles cover the whole evening. Full times are in the schedule table above.

What channel is Really on Freeview?

Freeview channel 44, since the January 2026 move.

What channel is Really on Sky, Virgin Media and Freesat?

Sky 142, Virgin Media 165, and Freesat 149. Really +1 runs an hour behind on Sky 242 and Virgin Media 365, though there’s no Freeview +1 currently.

Is Really free to watch?

Yes, on every platform, with no subscription. Expect the usual ad breaks of a commercial free-to-air channel.

Can I watch Really online for free?

Yes, live and on catch-up via discovery+, Warner Bros. Discovery’s free, ad-supported streaming app.

Who owns Really?

Warner Bros. Discovery. UKTV launched the channel in 2009 but sold it to Discovery in 2019, and Discovery became part of Warner Bros. Discovery after its 2022 merger with WarnerMedia.

Verdict

Really knows exactly what it is, which is more than most channels this far down the guide can say. Death Walker With Nick Groff and Help! My House Is Haunted give it an identity, and Groff at least behaves like a man investigating something rather than a man reacting to a noise. The daytime half is comfortable and nothing more.

Tonight is a heavier dose of repetition than usual: The Repair Shop alone fills nine hours from noon to 8pm, taking the first three hours of primetime with it, before Death Walker With Nick Groff at 9pm and a Help! My House Is Haunted double bill at 10pm and 11pm see out the night. If you’re picking a single hour, make it Death Walker — it’s the only genuinely different thing on the channel after lunch.
