This Weekend on More4: From DIY Fix‑Ups to B&B Showdowns – A Viewer’s Guide

More4 opens the weekend with a fresh batch of reality‑drama, DIY challenges and travel adventures. Below is a breakdown of the key programmes, how they line up across the day, and who might enjoy them most.

Reality and Hospitality – “Four in a Bed” (07:55 – 10:00 BST)

The long‑running B&B competition takes centre stage from 07:55 to 10:00 BST. Each episode pits a pair of hosts against a group of guests, with the stakes getting higher as the weekend progresses. The show offers a mix of light‑hearted drama and a touch of reality‑TV stylings that feels more reliable than any “soap‑opera” feel.

I’ve found the series keeps a steady pace, with the tension of the guests’ complaints balanced by the charm of the hosts’ banter. It’s a solid choice for anyone who enjoys a bit of culinary competition without the intensity of one of the better options.

DIY and Restoration – “Find It, Fix It, Flog It” (08:55 – 10:55 BST)

From 08:55 to 10:55 BST, Simon O’Brien and Henry Cole take on quirky restoration projects around the Wirral and nearby areas. The show offers a practical look at how everyday items can be transformed into something extraordinary, with a light‑hearted tone that still feels engaging.

If you enjoy hands‑on projects and a dash of humor, this is a reliable pick for the weekend. The series avoids the pitfalls of over‑dramatic storytelling, focusing instead on the satisfaction of seeing a finished product.

Cooking Competition – “Come Dine with Me” (12:35 – 15:15 BST)

Every day from midday to early afternoon, “Come Dine with Me” brings a new group of hosts to test their culinary skills in a friendly competition. The episodes feature a mix of local cuisine and playful twists, with the final night often revealing the real dynamics between the hosts.

The show’s format is straightforward – it’s a great way to discover new recipes while watching a light-hearted battle. For viewers looking for something in between cooking shows and reality drama, this offers a sweet spot.

Music Quiz – “PopMaster TV” (18:55 – 20:00 BST)

Ken Bruce hosts the music quiz from 18:55 to 20:00 BST. It tests participants on their knowledge of pop music, offering a chance for music lovers to see how well they can recall hits.

While not a full‑length drama, it’s a neat evening filler for those who appreciate trivia and a touch of nostalgia.

Medical Reality – “24 Hours in A&E” (21:00 – 23:05 BST)

From 21:00 to 23:05 BST, “24 Hours in A&E” follows real emergency patients over a day in two episodes. The show blends medical urgency with human stories, offering a realistic look at what happens in a hospital emergency department.

It’s a credible portrayal of medical practice, though it may be too intense for younger viewers. For adults who appreciate realism, it remains a compelling watch.

Emergency Rescue – “999: On the Front Line” (23:05 – 00:10 BST)

The final slot of the night (23:05 to 00:10 BST) showcases on‑scene paramedic action. The series gives an inside look at life‑saving work and the challenges faced by emergency staff.

It provides a realistic perspective that can be both informative and moving, though it may not be suited for very young viewers.

Travel and Property – “A Place in the Sun” (10:35 – 14:40 BST)

From late morning into the early afternoon, the travel‑property show runs from 10:35 to 14:40 BST. It follows couples searching for holiday homes across Europe, offering a blend of scenic footage and real‑world decision‑making.

If you’re into real‑estate adventures or simply enjoy travel vlogs, this is a reliable option. It delivers genuine insight into property buying without the drama of high‑stakes series.

Adventure – “The Perfect Pitch” (02:20 – 02:50 BST)

The early‑morning slot (02:20 to 02:50 BST) offers a wilderness adventure show that follows campers in the Scottish Highlands. The series is light‑hearted and focuses on outdoor fun.

A good pick for those who appreciate nature and a bit of humour. It’s not a full‑length drama but offers a pleasant break from daily routines.

New Series – “Panda” (20:00 – 21:00 BST)

The new series “Panda” airs from 20:00 to 21:00 BST. It is a comic crime drama set in a seniors’ village, with a French‑subtitled format. It combines humour with mystery, appealing to viewers who enjoy light‑hearted detective stories.

The series adds a fresh angle to More4’s lineup, and it’s worth a try if you’re looking for something different.

Bottom line: The More4 weekend offers a balanced mix of light entertainment, practical DIY, culinary rivalry, medical realism and travel escapades. Whether you’re a family looking for wholesome programming or an adult craving a touch of drama, there’s a slot for you.
