Sky One had commissioned many homegrown programmes since it first started broadcasting back in 1984 but it was not until 1989 that content went beyond music and children's programming. During the early years, new game shows included a few series of Blockbusters and Spellbound, along with The Price Is Right and Sale of the Century. Original dramas include Dream Team, a series based on a fictional football team; The Strangerers, a science fiction sitcom that was dropped after one series and never repeated; Al Murray's sitcom Time Gentlemen Please; and Baddiel's Syndrome. Hex, another sci-fi show, proved popular but was cancelled in April 2006, and Mile High also proved quite popular but only lasted from 2003 to 2005. Sky One commissioned Terry Pratchett's Hogfather for Christmas 2006, which proved to be their most successful programme ever. Following that success, Sky brought out in 2008 an adaptation of The Colour of Magic and its second half The Light Fantastic, and in 2010 Terry Pratchett's Going Postal, the 33rd book in the Discworld series. Sky also co-produced The 4400 and co-financed the first season of Battlestar Galactica.
The channel shut down for good on 1 September 2021, with its channel number taken by Sky Showcase and much of its content library moved to Sky Max.[1][2][3]
This is a list of television programmes broadcast by Sky One in the United Kingdom and Ireland.
