If you’re in the US, Canada, or Australia, the time gets a bit… well, wonky. The show is a BBC production, so it airs first in the UK, then trickles out to other regions later. On streaming services like Netflix (outside the UK), it usually drops at 12:01 AM local time on the release day—perfect for a midnight binge session.
In Canada, the show airs on BBC Canada, often on the same night but a few hours behind. For Australia, check SBS On Demand—it’s usually up by 8:30 PM AEST. Just remember: time zones are the real villains of this show, not the contestants.

Pro tip: set your recorder or stream
Honestly, the safest bet is to record it or watch it on BBC iPlayer (if you’re in the UK). That way, you can pause for snacks, rewind to yell at the screen, or skip the “previously on” segment. And let’s be real—you will need to pause. Who doesn’t want to dissect that awkward bus ride or the budget spreadsheet drama?
If you’re outside the UK, use a VPN to access iPlayer—just don’t tell the BBC I said that. Or check if your local broadcaster has the rights. It’s a whole adventure, and you’re the hero navigating this chaos.
