New research reported by multiple outlets finds that more than a third of people in Britain save television shows and films specifically to watch during travel. The study indicates this behavior is common among regular viewers, who set aside programmes for long journeys such as taking trains or flying. The findings point to a shift in viewing habits, with entertainment increasingly integrated into time spent travelling rather than watched only at home or through scheduled viewing. One report frames the behavior around people storing their favourite content so they can access it while on the move, including during extended periods away from home. Another describes the same pattern as part of broader changes in how viewers engage with TV and film, highlighting that watching content during travel has become a routine practice for a significant portion of the population. While the reports differ slightly in wording, they converge on the central result: over a third of Brits regularly save programmes for viewing when travelling.
