Tip Toe release schedule: When is episode 2 out on Channel 4?

by

Channel 4 premieres Russell T Davies’s gripping new series, Tip Toe, tonight. The unsettling drama is expected to keep audiences on the edge of their seats and eager to find out what happens.

Unlike the current trend of releasing entire seasons at once, these episodes won’t all be available immediately. Instead, we’ll have to wait a few days for the later parts to air, building anticipation along the way.

Tip Toe is a gripping thriller taking place in Manchester. It centers on Leo, who runs a gay bar, and his neighbor Clive, an electrician – the two have known each other for over ten years.

Even though they always got along well, their relationship suddenly became strained during one particularly eventful week, as unexpected happenings caused them to argue.

Davies explains that Tip Toe highlights a critical situation in the UK, where increasing division and lack of trust are threatening to fracture communities.

Want to know when and where to watch Tip Toe? Here’s a complete schedule for its release on Channel 4, including both TV broadcasts and online streaming.

When is Tip Toe episode 2 out on Channel 4?

The second episode of Tip Toe will be shown on Channel 4 at 9pm on Monday, June 1st, 2026. You can also watch it immediately on the Channel 4 website.

Unfortunately, fans won’t be able to watch all the episodes of this exciting show right away. The last three episodes will be released next week. Here’s a complete schedule of when and where you can watch it.

How many episodes are there in Tip Toe?

Tip Toe consists of five episodes in total.

This puts it at roughly an equal length to Davies’s previous Channel 4 drama It’s A Sin.

Tip Toe release schedule on TV and streaming

Channel 4’s new drama, Tip Toe, won’t be available to watch all at once. Instead of releasing all five episodes on its premiere date, the channel will air them over a two-week period.

How you watch Tip Toe will affect when you can see it. It will be available either when it airs on TV, or through Channel 4’s free streaming service.

Choosing this option lets you watch the final episode a little before it airs on television, which is a good idea if you want to avoid finding out what happens beforehand.

Here is the Tip Toe release schedule for traditional TV viewers:

  • Tip Toe episode 1 – 9pm on Sunday 31 May 2026 on Channel 4
  • Tip Toe episode 2 – 9pm on Monday 1 June 2026 on Channel 4
  • Tip Toe episode 3 – 9pm on Sunday 7 June 2026 on Channel 4
  • Tip Toe episode 4 – 9pm on Monday 8 June 2026 on Channel 4
  • Tip Toe episode 5 – 9pm on Tuesday 9 June 2026 on Channel 4

On Channel 4’s streaming service, new episodes will be released over two Sundays in a row. Here’s a breakdown of how that works compared to other options:

  • Tip Toe episodes 1 and 2 – Sunday 31 May 2026 on Channel 4 (online)
  • Tip Toe episodes 3, 4 and 5 – Sunday 7 June 2026 on Channel 4 (online)

Channel 4 seems to be trying to balance traditional TV viewing with the way people now enjoy streaming shows, and their recent launch has been a bit unclear. We hope this guide answers any questions you have.
