Is The Last of Us episode 5 airing early in the UK?

We’re now halfway through HBO’s success The Last of Us, the adaptation of the popular apocalyptic video game starring Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsay.

New episodes of the series usually air on Sundays on HBO Max in the US, then are available on demand via Now/Sky in the UK at the same time – episodes also air on Sky Atlantic the following evening.

However, HBO has confirmed that episode five of The Last of Us will air earlier than usual due to Super Bowl 57. The next episode will air tonight, Friday, February 10, 2023 at 9 p.m. ET.

But where does that leave UK viewers? Here’s what you need to know. If you haven’t watched the show yet, check out our thoughts on the first episode here.
