SKY REVEALS JANUARY 2025 PROGRAMMING HIGHLIGHTS: NEW AND RETURNING SERIES

Sky have revealed the new and returning series airing across its portfolio of channels in January 2025.

Lockerbie: A Search for Truth

On 21st December 1988, 259 passengers and crew were killed when Pan Am Flight 103 exploded over Lockerbie 38 minutes after take-off, with a further 11 residents losing their life as the plane came down over the quiet, Scottish town. 

In the wake of the disaster and his daughter’s death, Dr Jim Swire (Colin Firth), is nominated spokesperson for the UK victims’ families, who have united to demand truth and justice.

Travelling across continents and political divides, Jim embarks on a relentless journey that not only jeopardises his stability, family and life, but completely overturns his trust in the justice system. As the truth shifts under Jim’s feet, his view of the world is left forever changed. 

Dart Kings

In 1972, darts staggered out of the pub and onto British primetime television, bringing with it a cast of – by today’s standards - unlikely sporting heroes. Today, discipline is key to sporting success but in those first moments when the game hit the bigtime, the greatest players mixed extraordinary skill at the oche with boozing, chain-smoking, and an open-door policy to fans and the media alike.

Yet it was this combination of skill and raw, unfiltered personality that brought in television audiences of more than 10 million and created some of the most memorable characters in sporting history.

Against a backdrop of rising unemployment and unrest in 1980s Britain, darts brought  entertainment and energy to British audiences. Join us as we explore the incredible journeys of three of the greatest names in darts, charting their rise, rivalries, heartache, and triumphs through the '70s, ‘80s and ’90s.
