There are very few TV shows that have made me so uncomfortable that I could never bear to watch them again, but Richard Gadd's Half Man is easily one of them.

What's more, we've known from the moment episode 1 began that 30 years of heartbreak, grief and abhorrent behavior would lead to a showdown between adult Niall (Jamie Bell) and Ruben (Gadd). The standoff at Niall's wedding has been teased for five weeks now, and it's time to see exactly what went down.

I know I won't be able to watch properly when it happens, but when will Half Man episode 6 be released on HBO Max and BBC iPlayer?

What time can I watch Half Man episode 6 on HBO Max and BBC iPlayer?

Let's take the HBO Max schedule first. Half Man episode 6 hits HBO Max on May 28.
