A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms: UK and US Air Dates Revealed
Discover when and where to watch A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, the latest Game of Thrones spin-off, as it arrives on HBO and Sky Atlantic with a six-episode run.
Westeros is set to welcome a fresh chapter as A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms prepares to make its debut. Adapted from George R.R. Martin’s Dunk and Egg tales, this new series shifts the focus to a wandering knight, Dunk, and his quick-witted squire, Egg, as they chase glory at a tournament. The action unfolds nearly a century before the events of the original Game of Thrones, and a good while after House of the Dragon, promising a distinctly different era with a cast of unfamiliar faces.
For those eager to mark their calendars, the first episode lands on 18 January at 10pm ET/PT for American audiences. Meanwhile, viewers in the UK can catch the premiere at 3am GMT on 19 January, with a more civilised repeat at 9pm GMT the same day. The series will be broadcast on HBO in the States and Sky Atlantic for British fans, before heading to streaming platforms like HBO Max or NOW, depending on your location.
Episode Rollout and Weekly Schedule
Episodes will arrive on a weekly basis, with new instalments dropping every Sunday in the US and each Monday in the UK. The full schedule is as follows:
- Episode 1 – January 18
- Episode 2 – January 25
- Episode 3 – February 1
- Episode 4 – February 8
- Episode 5 – February 15
- Episode 6 – February 22
With just six episodes, this run is notably brief—matching only the eighth season of Game of Thrones for its compactness. Each chapter is expected to delve into the exploits of Dunk and Egg as they navigate the perils and politics of a Westeros still recognisable, yet markedly changed from the one fans know.
What to Expect from the New Series
Set against the backdrop of a kingdom still reeling from old conflicts, the narrative promises a blend of adventure, intrigue, and the odd bit of mischief. The show’s timeline, sandwiched between two major series, offers a unique vantage point on the shifting allegiances and ambitions that define the realm. Audiences can look forward to a parade of new characters, each with their own quirks and secrets, as Dunk and Egg attempt to carve out their place in a world that rarely rewards the unprepared.
For those keen to keep up with the ever-expanding universe, this series sits alongside a growing roster of Westerosi spin-offs. Whether you’re a seasoned fan or a newcomer, the journey promises to be anything but predictable.
