May 11 is fast approaching, when Ncuti Gatwa and Millie Gibson return in the TARDIS for eight brand new Doctor Who episodes. See the latest trailer here.
Fans of British crime dramas are eating well at the moment, from new Tudor-set murder mystery Shardlake, which comes adapted from CJ Sansom’s novel series and is available now on Disney+. Shardlake stars Arthur Hughes as the titular lawyer sent to investigate a murder at a monastery that Thomas Cromwell (Sean Bean) is determined to close down.
There’s also the second series of Belfast-set Blue Lights currently airing on BBC One, as well as the second series of Liverpool-set The Responder, starring Martin Freeman and available to stream in full now. And if your Brit TV tastes extend to the stranger side of things, then Alibi has The Red King, an original crime mystery set on a weird island where the new copper played by Anjli Mohindra investigates some Summerisle-style goings on. As well as all that, here’s a big look ahead to the new British drama coming up in 2024.
For gamers, on Prime Video, there’s Fallout, which continues The Last of Us‘ trend of being a video game-to-TV adaptation that’s actually, you know, good. Also on Netflix is moody, intoxicating psychological thriller Ripley, adapted from Patricia Highsmith’s The Talented Mr Ripley and starring Andrew Scott.
We’ll update this list of TV highlights weekly with more shows, dates and times as the release announcements arrive. If you’re based in the US, here’s where to look for the relevant info.
