How to watch 2025 Autumn Internationals

UK viewers will be able to watch every game of the 2025 Autumn Nations Series on TNT Sports. Unlike the Six Nations, none of the games will be shown on free-to-air channels.

Radio coverage will be available on BBC Radio 5 Live.

Rugby on TNT Sports

TNT Sports is not just home to the Autumn Nations Series but also is committed to showing every game of the 2025/26 Gallagher Premiership season, which kicked off in September.

If you’re a fan of the sport then getting yourself a TNT Sports subscription is an absolute must.

For new customers, you can find some great BT deals that include TNT Sports, plus you can get brilliant BT broadband along with it.

Existing customers can add TNT Sports to their existing TV package (should you already have one). It can be added on a one month rolling contract so you’re able to cancel whenever you’d like.

Discovery+

Purchasing TNT Sports will give you access to the TNT Sports TV channels, but you’ll also receive a Discovery+ Premium account. You get a standard Discovery+ account with every BT/EE TV package, but with TNT Sports you get a Premium account which gives you access to sports.

Discovery+ is the streaming provider for BT/EE TV, so if you want to watch TNT Sports on the go, you must download the Discovery+ app. It is downloadable on many devices, including mobile, tablet, PC/laptop, smart TVs and smart devices, and consoles.

TNT Sports on other providers

If you’re already with another provider, such as Sky or Virgin Media, you can still add TNT Sports on.

Whether you’re a new customer with either of them or an existing one, adding TNT Sports to your package is easy; it’s the same as adding it to your BT/EE TV package. It is applied as a 31-day rolling contract.
