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

Published: 31 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, Tuesday 1 September 2026, The Repair Shop and The Yorkshire Auction House share the early evening, Antiques Road Trip continues its Liverpool leg at 8pm, and two unconnected editions of Who Do You Think You Are? run back to back before Celebrity Help! My House Is Haunted closes out the night. Full breakdown below.

Fantasy Homes By The Sea opens the day proper, Cruise TV with LoveitBookit fills the 7am shopping slot, and Escape To The Country holds 8am. Salvage Hunters then settles in for three hours from 9am to 11am, all from the same series, before The Yorkshire Auction House takes the midday hours with a pair of episodes from series 4. The Repair Shop drops in for a single hour at 2pm, two more Salvage Hunters episodes from a later series run at 3pm and 4pm, and Long Lost Family closes out the daytime schedule at 5pm before primetime begins.

Really tonight — primetime and the evening schedule

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

The Repair Shop — Really, 6pm

The Repair Shop opens the evening at 6pm (series 7, episode 29). Three jobs on the benches: a much-loved violin, a tin rocket from the 1950s that no longer does what it should, and a tiny silver kettle someone once made out of a shilling.

The Yorkshire Auction House — Really, 7pm

Series 6, episode 15. Angus empties a house for a widow starting again, then helps a couple raise the money for their wedding out of what they already own.

Antiques Road Trip — Really, 8pm

Margie Cooper and Tim Medhurst are back at 8pm on leg two (series 29, episode 2), working the Liverpool shops a night after setting off, with a detour into Chinatown along the way.

Who Do You Think You Are? — Really, 9pm

Who Do You Think You Are? takes the 9pm slot, with Rose Ayling-Ellis tracing a pub landlady in her family tree and a rumoured Italian connection on her father’s side.

Who Do You Think You Are? — Really, 10pm

A second, unconnected edition follows at 10pm (series 10, episode 3), with Minnie Driver digging into her father’s side of the family.

Celebrity Help! My House Is Haunted — Really, 11pm

Celebrity Help! My House Is Haunted closes the night at 11pm (series 2, episode 5), with the team trying to make contact with Jake Quickenden’s late father and brother.

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 opens primetime at 6pm, followed by The Yorkshire Auction House at 7pm and Antiques Road Trip at 8pm. Who Do You Think You Are? then runs twice back to back at 9pm and 10pm, tracing two unconnected family trees, before Celebrity Help! My House Is Haunted closes the night at 11pm. 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. Help! My House Is Haunted gives it an identity that’s hard to find anywhere else on free-to-air television, and the daytime half is comfortable and nothing more.

Tonight leans hard on the channel’s two biggest exports: The Repair Shop and The Yorkshire Auction House take the 6pm and 7pm hours before Antiques Road Trip continues its Liverpool leg at 8pm, and two unconnected editions of Who Do You Think You Are? run back to back at 9pm and 10pm. Celebrity Help! My House Is Haunted closes out the night at 11pm. If you’re picking a single hour, make it 9pm — Rose Ayling-Ellis’s rumoured Italian connection is a more distinctive watch than another round of the auction room.
