Matlock, stopped in the uk in January 2025. On episode eight, why it states there are ten episodes

[YarmDave]

Why has padlock series suddenly had plug pulled in UK in January 2025.

@YarmDave 

Mid-season break maybe?

It should return soon. The series went on a break in the US after episode 8, but is due to resume over there on 30th January.

@YarmDave 

An internet search suggests there are 18 episodes in this series.

If it went on a break in the U.S. after episode 8 - why doesnt episode 8 play in the UK ?

[xenon81]

What problem are you having when trying to play it?

[wrinkly+pear]

We watched episode 8 on the 14th January in the UK.

[LANIG]

It just doesnt play,  whether we just try to play episode 8 or if we continue watching from episode 7. The preview titles come io then nothing just a blank screen

[Timelord2018]

Is this on Sky+ or Sky Stream ?

[TriciaK44]

Why hasn't episode 9 of Matlock dropped in U.K. yet as played in USA  yesterday and was due in U.K. today?

Your issue has been moved from the Talk board which is for customers with landline phone issues. 

[Timelord2018]

Considering it has 18 episodes rather than 22 episodes,  will still have more breaks to come in the U.S , the earliest it will be back on Sky is late March.

[TriciaK44]

But it has not resumed. It was supposed to air on 30th January in USA and next day here in the UK, however it is nowehere to be found - or seen.

Yes it returned on 30th January in the US but Sky didn't say it was returning next day, Sky will want to air episodes 9-18 without any breaks.

[TriciaK44]

I read online on various website that it would air in the UK the day after release in the USA.
