Harry Potter fans in the UK have something extremely exciting to look forward to. ITV will air an eight-week marathon of the Boy Wizard.
If you’ve somehow never seen Harry Potter, you’re in luck. With Hogwarts back at school and the books turning 21 in the UK, ITV has opted to run a Potter marathon. Over the next eight weeks, you’ll get to see each of the movies.
This is also excellent news for those who just want to relive the magic. Every Saturday night is Harry Potter night. What more could you ask for.

Okay, so we would love to see the movies every single night of the week. But one movie a week is a great way to spend time together as a family.
It all starts on September 8 at 5:50 p.m. local time. Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone will air for old and new fans alive. The following week will see The Chamber of Secrets on September 15, and then The Prisoner of Azkaban on September 22, and so on. It all accumulates the weekend before Halloween with Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 on October 27.

This certainly isn’t the first time ITV has done a marathon like this, but there is no better way to spend a Saturday night. Well, except with a bag of popcorn or other favorite snacks. Don’t forget the hot chocolate as the nights grow darker and it gets colder.
