8 part BBC Thriller called MotherFatherSon.

Thanks Muchly.  Regarding MFS, all 8 episodes are already on iView until 7am 31/July/2020. I presume that it will broadcast sometime after that.

Hi Bazza,
This is now showing on 'New Series'.  Also ABC has two other new series coming up which may be of interest - Putin: A Russian Spy Story and an 8 part BBC Thriller called MotherFatherSon.
Cheers Gai

Gai,

Can you add my two which were immediately above please.

Hi Bazza
MFS starts 24 July. Putin 21 July.

Hi Adrian
Is that Emergency and Lone Star you're referring to?  I'll get these ones on also.

Cheers Gai

The ABC has started advertising Annabel Crabb's Further Back In Time for Dinner, which looks like a follow-on to the earlier Back In Time for Dinner. Will IceTV be treating them as seasons of the same show, or will Further Back In Time for Dinner be treated as a separate series (and need its own series recording)?

If we look at TheTVDB they list three series of Back In Time for Dinner, the UK original as "Back In Time for Dinner", and two others as "Back in Time for Dinner (AU)" and "Back In Time For Dinner (CA)". There is a UK follow up listed as "Further Back in Time for Dinner" so to be consistent it would appear that the latest Annabel Crabb offering might be listed as "Further Back in Time for Dinner (AU)".

Hi prl and Raymondjpg,

Looking at the information available for this show, I would tend to treat it as a sequel to the original "Back In Time For Dinner" and therefore it would require a separate series recording.  I will certainly add it to " New Series" shortly.

Cheers Gai

FYI ...

Further Back in Time for Dinner will screen on ABC & iview in 2020.

My guess, ... will premiere on the 18/Aug/2020 @ 21:30.

Thanks, Gai.

From a recent SBS On Demand newsletter "Season 8 of Spiral is due to arrive later this year. We’ll keep you posted."

From a recent SBS Newsletter "Fargo season 4 will no longer premiere on Wednesday 22 April, due to the suspension of production during the COVID-19 pandemic. SBS will advise the program's premiere date in due course."

From Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fargo_(season_4)

"The fourth season of Fargo, an American anthology black comedy–crime drama television series created by Noah Hawley, is set to premiere on September 27, 2020, on the basic cable network FX and will consist of 11 episodes...The season was originally scheduled to premiere on April 19, 2020, but this was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic."

I have seen no notification yet from SBS as to when it might eventually show up here.
