Available on Disney+ While this Star Wars spin-off (and its adorable green mascot Baby Yoda, aka The Child, aka Grogu) was a big hit for its first season, the Mandalorian’s continuing adventures in season two seriously raised the stakes. Alongside the usual pulse-pounding action scenes and heists-gone-wrong the series introduced some iconic figures...
Available on ITV Hub "Take it off! Take it off!"– 2020 wasn't quite what anyone expected, but heading into this most tumultuous of years, I can honestly say I never expected the sight (and sound) of Teddy Sheringham dressed as a tree singing 'Evergreen' to be one of my TV highlights of the year... but here we are.

This latest instalment of Netflix’s flagship show was somewhat uneven...
Available on ITV Hub, BritBox, Sky Go and to buy on Amazon It was a busy year for true crime drama series, with ITV also offering us Honour and White House Farm, but top of the pile was Des, a chilling miniseries that felt like true event television when it aired across three nights in September. Depicting the arrest and subsequent trial of Scottis...
Available on Netflix On the face of it, a limited series about chess might not sound like a likely candidate for a mega word-of-mouth smash, but Scott Frank’s series The Queen's Gambitbecame exactly that when it arrived on Netflix in October (chess set sales jumped 87% in the US after its debut). Lavishly produced and consistently engaging, this su...
Available on BBC iPlayer, Sky Go and to buy on Amazon To put it simply, Michaela Coel's I May Destroy You is astonishing. In just six hours, the show covers a staggering amount of ground, providing a detailed and insightful examination of sexual consent and assault in numerous forms. The show certainly doesn't shy away from its sensitive subject ma...
