How to watch House of the Dragon season 2 episode 4 in the UK

There are two ways to watch House of the Dragon season 2 episode 4 in the UK, both of which start on Monday, July 8.

Firstly, to watch it on live TV, Sky Atlantic will air the episode at 2 am... if you value your sleep ahead of the first day of the working week, it'll repeat at 9 pm that evening.

Then to watch it on demand, the episode of House of the Dragon will be available as part of Sky TV's and Now TV's libraries as soon as it airs on Sky TV.

You can watch it on Sky Atlantic or Sky TV's library if you subscribe to Sky. This costs £26 per month (with the occasional free trial or discount thanks to Sky TV deals ) for its basic tier.

Now TV costs £9.99 per month so it's a bit cheaper but doesn't offer Sky TV's live channels, so deciding between the two is as much about which other parts of the subscription you're interested in, as much as the price.
