Succession returns with season 4 – here’s where to watch it in the UK

It’s been more than a year since the Emmy-sweeping show about awful rich people last graced our screens, but Succession season four is finally here.

The fourth season of the show, which sees the Roy family plot, scheme and backstab their way to the top of the family’s global media empire, will provoke “existential angst and familial division among the Roys, as they anticipate what their lives will look like once the deal is completed between Waystar Royco and Lukas Matsson.

But, sadly, the show will come to a close at the end of season four. On 23 February, Jesse Armstrong, the writer behind the hit HBO show, confirmed that season four of Succession would be the final one. “There’s a promise in the title of Succession. I’ve never thought this could go on forever,” he told The New Yorker. 

“The end has always been kind of present in my mind. From season two, I’ve been trying to think: is it the next one, or the one after that, or is it the one after that?” Armstrong said. “I got together with a few of my fellow writers before we started the writing of season four… and I sort of said, ‘Look, I think this maybe should be it’.”

Below, we’ve outlined all the details about Succession season four, including the UK release date, and where exactly you can watch the new season, as well as previous seasons.

Succession season four returned to our screens in the UK on Monday 27 March at 2am BST. It airs exclusively on Sky Atlantic, premiering simultaneously with the US.

Season four consists of 10 episodes and will be the fourth and final season of the hit satirical show.

Succession season four airs exclusively on Sky Atlantic in the UK. The broadcaster retains the exclusive UK rights for season four. It airs on a weekly basis on Sky Atlantic every Monday morning at 2am, and you can also catch it on Sky Go straight after. The same episode airs later that same day at 9pm.

If you’re not a Sky customer, you can also stream Succession season four via Now (formerly Now TV). There are different packages for those watching via Now. A Now entertainment membership costs £9.99 per month, but you can also get a six-month Now entertainment and Now cinema membership at a discount (was £19.98 per month, now £12, Nowtv.com).

The Now streaming service also sells something called Now Boost, which is an additional subscription on top of the Now Entertainment pass. With Now Boost, you get access to full HD, ad-free streaming and surround sound on up to three devices at once, instead of the one device you get with the standard £9.99 Now Entertainment membership.
