I just checked the Channel 4 site and had a look at the Ugly Betty section; it seems as if it will be aired on E4 ONLY. Why do I say this? Well, usually Ugly Betty airs on Channel 4 on Wednesday nights at 10pm after being shown on E4 the night before at 9pm- the third season was on Wed nights after Seasons 1 and 2 spent 2 consecutive Friday nights at 9pm.
Yet the final season IS aired on E4 beginning Wednesday 11 August at 9pm. I also had a look at the following days as well, Thursday and Friday on Channel 4; and there is NO mention whatsoever of Series 4 of Ugly Betty being screen on TV on that channel. So yep, sadly series 4 will NOT be shown in the traditional weeknight slot on C4.
I did get a Twitter tweet from another Betty fan in the UK just last week who said Channel 4 emailed him to explain that series 4 will be on channel 4, but until I get or see actual confirmation from Channel 4 via their Betty promos or on their website on this, then I have every reason to believe that it will be on just E4 via sky, virgin and other digital satellite companies.
However, I think there is a possibility it will air on C4 on Sunday afternoons; as on Sunday August 15, on one site I visited there, it said 'to be announced'; this is because the 2pm- 3pm slot is left vacant after the double airing of Simpsons episodes. sooo... without further ado, I'd assume then that the series 4 repeats will air on Sunday afternoons.
So UK Ugly Betty fans, don't forget to make Wed nights Ugly Betty night by tuning in at 9pm on E4!
