Sky has offered a look at its upcoming slate for Sky Arts, Sky Documentaries, Sky Crime, and Sky Nature. With 12 brand-new original commissions, we’re promised a year full of eye-opening discoveries, nail-biting suspense, rock ‘n’ roll… and whales.
On Sky Arts, AC/DC’s Brian Johnson and Dire Straits’ Mark Knopfler join forces for six-parter Good Times. The rock legends will romp through the history of pop alongside special guests, including Sam Fender and Emmylou Harris. There’s also the self-explanatory Greatest Guitar Riffs incoming.
Art enthusiasts won’t want to miss the intriguing docu Decoding Turner, in which two enthusiasts, helped by art historians and academics, look for hidden codes they believe are woven into Turner’s paintings.
Master Crafters is also returning, albeit with new host Bill Bailey. Bill Bailey’s Master Crafters: The Next Generation will see Bill join junior crafters and seasoned experts as they explore wood carving, stained glass and silversmithing.

It’s been over five years since Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon last clinked glasses over grilled octopus and deadpan impressions in The Trip to Greece, and fans have been clamouring for one more course.

It may be Air by name, but there’s nothing lightweight about Sky Glass Air.
