Listings confusion

    First post here, but a big fan of the show.

    But I'm puzzled by the tv listings/showings

    1. E3, or 3E or whatever it is, showed 2 eps back to back over a fortnight ago, and since then I haven't seen an ep in their listings.

    2. Did Sky screw up? Was looking forward to Sundays show (20th Sep), noticed the synopsis was for the show I saw last week & assumed it was a mistake. But no, the ep they showed on Sunday had already been shown the previous week (possibly on Sky 2 on Monday). Did Sky show the 20th Sep show early by mistake? Or do I need a good Doctor?

    Also, I don't get into town very often. But I assume the p[revious 4 series are available on DVD?

    Thanks in advance...

    E3 ran it through quicker... sky have 1 more episode to show this Sunday, then they'll be going straight into Season 6 the following Sunday.

    Can't see anything on 3E either. They're going to be way behind sky now in any case, unless they plan on more double-headers.

    Sky will show repeats at least twice through the week too, handy if you forget to sky+ it.

    Think I'm right in saying 3E don't broadcast in widescreen format either.

    Oh yeah - for anyone catching up, Hallmark channel started showing season 5 on Friday evenings.

    Thanks House fan, i've seen them since. maybe one for the january sales.

    Also, what's the deal with 3E or E3 or whatever it is?

    I see they're showing double episodes again. Had a quick look at one to see if it was a re-run, but appeared to be a new episode. (so i turned it off again - I'm following the sequence on Sky1)

    With Sky's schedule, now E3 showing double-headers & Hallmark racing through series 5 on Fridays, it's becoming a bit bewildering!

    I know the feeling, was catching up on the first 4 seasons into the second half of season 5, then just before Season 6 started, watched the first half of season 5... :rolleyes:

    Yep!

    I watched a few early series 5 eps on hallmark, as i'd missed them on Sky1 first time around.
    Now I've got my sis-in-law (who's staying with us just now) hooked & she's devouring the series 5 eps that I have seen. Good eps, so i don't mind seeing them twice. I notice a lot of small details I'd missed first time round.

    Now, E3???
    On Sunday evening, Sky1 intro'd house by saying "in the same week it was first shown in the USA"...which is nice.

    But....how come E3 are showing double headers? I can see how they might have the same Series 6 eps as Sky. But if Sky are indeed up to date, what's the other ep that E3 are showing?

    I really don't want to watch one on E3 as it may spoil a future surprise when I watch my "scheduled eps" on Sky 1. I did sneak a peek at the programme synopsis of one, and it "seemed" to be further into series 6 than Sky.

    Is anyone else watching the E3 shows & can explain.

    ps It's been a rough old week, apologies in advance if I'm being stoopid here!
