Four in a Bed Fires Up Friday
At 08:55 BST the competition heats up as the B&B owners face the first of many challenges. With a mix of hospitality mishaps and heartfelt moments, the show sticks to its premise – “the best B&B wins.” While the drama is present, the format remains reliable, offering a mix of light tension and genuine warmth.
Dinner Duel: Come Dine with Me’s Kitchen Karmic
From 11:05 to 13:05 BST, the familiar kitchen battles continue. Episode 1 sees a Merseyside co‑ordinator serve a down‑to‑earth menu, while the second episode sees a pastoral care manager add a pop of music to the menu. The tension builds with an unexpected faux‑pas in episode three, but the charm of the cast keeps the show engaging. It’s a predictable format, yet the personalities keep it fresh.
Road Rescue: Car S.O.S. on the Asphalt
From 16:50 to 17:50 BST, a VW Polo and a Suzuki Jimny are taken to the garage for urgent repairs. The show offers a clear, step‑by‑step look at car restoration, with a mix of technical detail and real‑world frustration. It’s reliable for car enthusiasts, though the pacing can feel slow for a casual viewer.
Paws & Play: The Dog House Delivers Doggy Drama
Between 18:55 and 20:00 BST, the beloved dogs take centre stage. Duchess, Peaches, and the rest showcase their antics, with a few moments of genuine humour. The episodes are light, offering a break from the heavier programming earlier in the night.
Crime on the Coast: New Coastal Unit’s Shocking Start
From 21:00 to 22:15 BST, a fresh French crime drama begins. The plot of a firefighter’s death and potential murder keeps viewers on edge, while the French subtitles add an international flavour. It’s one of the better choices for those craving a new thriller.
Heartbeat Highlights: 24 Hours in A&E
From 22:20 to 23:20 BST, the medical drama follows real patients and staff in the emergency department. The episode featuring a five‑day‑old infant adds emotional weight, though the pacing can feel rushed as it covers multiple cases.
Emergency Echoes: 999’s Front Line
At 23:20 BST, paramedics face a series of urgent calls. The show offers an inside view of emergency response, but the narrative can feel flat for those looking for dramatic tension.
Sunset Getaway: A Place in the Sun
At 03:30 BST, the travel show explores a Greek island on a tight budget. It provides practical advice for budget travellers, though the pace is slow and the content is more informative than exciting.
Shop or Stop: High Street’s Teleshopping
From 04:00 to 07:00 BST, the teleshopping block offers a range of products. It’s a low‑stakes option for late‑night viewers, and the repetition can become monotonous.
Bottom line: The evening on More4 offers a balanced mix of light entertainment, practical advice, and a hint of drama. Whether you’re in the mood for a B&B showdown, a kitchen showdown, a car repair, or a slice of crime, there’s something for most viewers.
