The CW is taking another stab at the DC Universe with Gotham Knights, a new series focusing on life after Bruce Wayne’s death. Batman’s adopted son, Tim Drake, joins forces with the children of former enemies of the Caped Crusader when they are all falsely accused of murder.
Most fans are excited to see Misha Collins step into the role of the iconic villain Harvey Dent/Two-Face. Collins is best known for playing the angel Castiel on Supernatural, one of the longest running CW shows with a dedicated fan base.
If you’re in the US, then watching Gotham Knights is easy – just tune into The CW on your TV, or head to The CW website. However, things are a little trickier if you’re in the UK or abroad.
Here is everything you need to know.
When do new episodes of Gotham Knights air?
New episodes of Gotham Knights air every Tuesday at 9pm EST (East Coast US). However, if you’re watching on The CW website, then new episodes are made available to stream the day after.

Is Gotham Knights airing on any UK channel or streaming service?
As far as we know, no UK channel or streaming service has picked up Gotham Knights.
Sometimes, shows on The CW have been syndicated on E4, as well as on Now/Sky. However, there has been no confirmation from either of these for Gotham Knights.
Fortunately, there is still a way to watch it – by using a VPN.
How to watch Gotham Knights on The CW in the UK
The CW website is locked to users outside of the US, but you can still stream content on there by using a VPN.
If you’re not familiar, a VPN reroutes your IP address, so you can appear as if you’re browsing from another country that isn’t your own. If you connect to a US server, then The CW website will think that you’re based there, and therefore you’ll be able to stream content.
The CW website is free to watch, so all you need to pay for is the VPN. We used NordVPN to unblock this platform and were successful. NordVPN comes with a wide range of US servers, a user-friendly interface and competitive pricing, especially if you sign up for a long-term plan.
You can also check out other VPNs that are good for streaming. Keep in mind that using a VPN is technically against The CW’s terms of service.
Here are the steps you need to take:
- Time to complete: 5 minutes
- Tools required: Laptop or PC, VPN
Connect to a US server on your VPN

There are lots of different US servers to choose from, but NordVPN will connect you to the fastest.
You can always connect to another one if you find the website is buffering/not loading.
