    Please forgive me but when and where is wresting on the tv.

    I enjoy watching it on Friday and Saturday night's at 10pm on Sky Sports, but problems with those days are that I could be in the pub and miss it.

    Am I catching the first viewing of them? If not when are they on?

    First viewing if i'm not mistaken Bullman:

    RAW: Sky Sports 1 - Saturday mornings at 1am (subject to change when they feel like it, seeing as we're five days behind the yanks)
    Smackdown: Sky One - Sunday mornings at 1am (or 1.30, they tend to move that as well) It's also on Saturday mornings at about 10.30-11ish but i'm never awake for that!

    Usually the early morning shows of SD are censored and kinda annoying. Chair shots etc are left out and you get a close up of some dude in the crowd instead!

    They generally don't censor the night viewings.
    SD is on Sky Sports Saturday nights/Sunday mornings but as Nero said they change the schedule whenever they like.

    The late night shows on Sky one are usually censored or else the shots go to the crowd. I know for a fact this weekends one was!

    I always wondered what the fuss behind all that was...
    Sky One won't show a stuntman in a wheelchair bring thrown down a flight of stairs, but 12 years ago, they had no reservation whatsoever to show a guy with a snake knawing on someone elses arm!

    I dunno, production editors of today... wasn't like that in my day *schnipp until ramblings about the price of milk start...*

    Censorship is wrong!
    If you don't want to watch dont!!!

    they also tend to edit out women getting slammed sometimes which is really annoying considering they give out a warning before the show. then there was the Playboy thing also cut from Smackdown because of the UK's anal advertising on tv shows rule

    The censorship on sky one is to stop kids watching violence which may be inappropriate for their age group ..... they used to broadcast smackdown on thursdays without the cuts, however, I guess not many people wanted to watch that, and it got taken off...

    what would be nice would be to see RAW a bit earlier than Friday night. it goes out in the states on Monday so i would be really happy if Sky showed it on a Tuesday or Wednesday to avoid people telling me spoilers

    when do the WWE send the programme over here does anyone know. is it Monday night/Tuesday morning??

    I think you'll find Gilly is referring to the Sky Sports late night showing being censored not the Sky One show. They should never censor the late night show apart from maybe the McMahon's taking up all the screen time, they could gladly cut some of that out.

    Yes. Of course they should censor the Saturday morning stuff!
    Not for kids.
