Fans of #OneChicago are getting an early treat this year, as ‘Chicago Med’, ‘Chicago Fire’, and ‘Chicago PD’ all make their triumphant return to Sky Witness much earlier than usual. Traditionally arriving in the new year, the trio are instead roaring back onto UK screens this November, which has delighted fans of Dick Wolf’s long-running franchise of first-responder dramas.
Kicking off Friday nights on Sky Witness and NOW, the Chicago lineup returns from 8pm, delivering three straight hours of high-stakes heroics and heartfelt chaos.
At 8pm, ‘Chicago Med’ launches its eleventh season with “We All Fall Down”, as a family of victims from a house fire is rushed to Gaffney.

Epatha Merkerson (Law & Order), and Oliver Platt (The West Wing).
Then at 9pm, ‘Chicago Fire’ ignites its fourteenth season with “Kicking Down Doors”. A new face at Firehouse 51 stirs tension, while chaos in the city pushes the crew to breaking point. Herrmann hesitates to hand over his office to Mouch, leading to some classic firehouse friction.

Created by Dick Wolf, the One Chicago universe has been captivating viewers since 2012, following the interconnected lives of the city’s firefighters, medics, and police officers. Known for its crossover events and emotionally charged storytelling, the franchise continues to explore the grit and humanity of Chicago’s frontline heroes.
