A strange request, but is there any way of finding out when a particular advert is due to be shown on tv?

    Not really, as on SKY there are so many ads that you lose track.

    You could try emailing the company as they may have details

    Technically, there must be a schedule somewhere, as companies pay for slots in the advertising schedules. However, I don't think it'd quite as accurate as "Your advert will play at 8:13pm on ITV1." It's more "it'll air between 7pm and 10pm."

    I don't think there's anywhere you can go, apart from, as said, the company, or maybe the advertiser (ITV1, C4, etc).

    Not sure it's as general as that because advertisers will pay a premium to be within certain shows, ie Coronation Street.

    Yeah, I think they pay for slots during certain shows rather than just 'time slots'.
