PRISON BREAK: UK 1 day behind

Tuesday 19 August 2008
I'm still not excited about Prison Break's fourth season, because the habitually shark-jumping show's luck has surely run out. They did astonishingly well to keep the premise going for three seasons, but can it manage four? I hope so, but none of the trailers have grabbed my attention.

However, I have to applaud Sky 1's latest wheeze: they'll be showing episodes the day after they're shown in the US! That's right, in a likely effort to curb internet downloaders, Sky1 will be just 24-hours behind American audiences. Excellent news (well, unless you don't have Sky), and hopefully a sign of things to come in the UK. Let's see if Sky's ratings get a boost.

Prison Break returns on 2 September @ 10 pm on Sky 1.
