<description>
&lt;p&gt;The final season of The &lt;em&gt;Big Bang Theory&lt;/em&gt; is set to premiere in the United Kingdom later this month. E4 will air the show's twelfth season from Thursday, October 18 at 8:30pm.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In The &lt;em&gt;Big Bang Theory&lt;/em&gt;'s twelfth season premiere, &quot;&lt;a href='/episodeguide/episode/1201/The-Conjugal-Configuration/'&gt;&lt;em&gt;The Conjugal Configuration&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&quot;, Sheldon and Amy face their first argument as husband and wife while they honeymoon in New York.

<title>The Big Bang Theory returns to the UK, joins Young Sheldon</title>
<description>
&lt;p&gt;The &lt;em&gt;Big Bang Theory&lt;/em&gt;'s eleventh season will return to British TV screens later this month and will be joined by &lt;em&gt;Young Sheldon&lt;/em&gt;, which is getting its UK debut.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;E4 will resume airing the current season of The &lt;em&gt;Big Bang Theory&lt;/em&gt; from Thursday, February 22 at 8pm. The digital broadcaster aired the first eleven episodes of the season late last year. Following the mid-season break, the show continues with &quot;&lt;a href=&quot;https://the-big-bang-theory.com/episodeguide/episode/1112/The-Matrimonial-Metric/&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;The Matrimonial Metric&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&quot; which sees Sheldon and Amy try to determine who is most qualified to be best man and maid of honor at their wedding.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Young Sheldon&lt;/em&gt; will air right after The &lt;em&gt;Big Bang Theory&lt;/em&gt; on Thursday nights at 8:30pm from February 22nd. E4 picked up the rights to the spin-off last year after the highly-rated premiere of the show in the United States. &lt;em&gt;Young Sheldon&lt;/em&gt;, a single-camera comedy from The &lt;em&gt;Big Bang Theory&lt;/em&gt;'s Chuck Lorre and Steven Molaro, stars Iain Armitage&amp;nbsp;as nine-year-old Sheldon Cooper growing up in East Texas, where his impressive intelligence isn't always an advantage when he starts high school.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Young Sheldon&lt;/em&gt; also stars Zoe Perry, real-life daughter of Laurie Metcalf who plays Sheldon's mother on The &lt;em&gt;Big Bang Theory&lt;/em&gt;, as Mary Cooper, Lance Barber as George Sr., Montana Jordan as George Jr., Raegan Revord as Missy, and Annie Potts as Sheldon's beloved&amp;nbsp;Meemaw. Jim Parsons, who also serves as executive producer with Todd Spiewak, narrates the show as adult Sheldon.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Young Sheldon&lt;/em&gt;, which aired its special debut last night on &lt;em&gt;CBS,&lt;/em&gt;&amp;nbsp;follows the life of Sheldon Cooper growing up in East Texas and starting high school at the age of nine.
