## MONDAY 



  

#### **Alma’s Not Normal, BBC** 

Sophie Willan’s wildly funny, working-class sitcom is back for a second season. Alma is back in Bolton, fresh from a break-up. After finishing up her tour with the local theatre troupe, she is desperately trying to find an agent and start her life as a global superstar. As always, her eccentric family is in tow. Her drug-addicted mum (Siobhan Finneran) has been sectioned, her best mate Leanne (Jayde Adams) has transformed a truck into a bar that’s become Bolton’s new hotspot and her unruly nan is still loving Spam.

#### **The Menendez Brothers, Netflix**

There’s been plenty of controversy surrounding the recent release of true-crime drama *Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story.* Netflix's new documentary film, *The Menendez Brothers,* is a rebuttal to the high drama of Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan's fictionalised adaptation. When Erik and Lyle Menendez were convicted of brutally murdering their parents, the case captivated the world, turning the Beverly Hills family into a tabloid sensation. The documentary revisits the story by going through decades of material to offer a fresh perspective straight from the source – including all-new audio interviews from the brothers themselves.

## WEDNESDAY 



  

#### **Slow Horses, Apple TV+**

The fourth season of Apple TV’s comedic spy thriller *Slow Horses* is coming to an end. The finale will see the big stand-off with this season’s foe – Frank Harkness (Hugo Weaving) – and River’s big secret will finally be exposed. Will he, and the rest of the Slough House team, live to fight another day?

## THURSDAY 



  

#### **Curfew, Paramount +** 

Set in an alternate world where all men live under a strict curfew from 7pm-7am every night, *Curfew* is a new thriller series adapted from Jayne Cowie’s hit novel *After Dark.* Sarah Parish stars as Pamela Green, a stoney-faced detective tasked with solving an unlikely murder – at least in this world – the brutal late-night killing of a woman. Mandip Gill, Mitchell Robertson and Alexandra Burke also star.

#### **Sweetpea, Sky Atlantic &amp; Now TV**

Based on CJ Skuse's hit novel *Sweetpea,* this is a wickedly twisted 'coming of rage' six-episode series starring Ella Purnell (*Yellowjackets* and *Fallout*). Rhiannon is a wallflower who discovers a liberating thirst for revenge. She’s overlooked for promotions, her crush won't commit, her sister is living her best life abroad, and her dad is seriously ill. Things couldn't get any worse. But when her world turns upside down, Rhiannon snaps, revealing a fierce young woman capable of anything – including murder. *Sweetpea* comes from the producers of *Slow Horses* and *Heartstopper.*

#### **Citadel: Diana, Amazon Prime**

Set in Milan in 2030, *Citadel: Diana* is the glossy Italian counterpart to the American spy drama starring Richard Madden and Priyanka Chopra. Eight years after the global spy agency Citadel was obliterated by the ruthless Manticore, undercover agent Diana Cavalieri (Matilda De Angelis) finds herself alone and deep in enemy territory. To escape, she must team up with an unexpected ally: Edo Zani (Lorenzo Cervasio) is the ambitious heir to Manticore Italy, whose father (Maurizio Lombardi) is locked in a power struggle with rival European families. With the Russo brothers – famed for their work in the Marvel Cinematic Universe – serving as executive producers, expect cool fight scenes, explosive visuals and complex character arcs.

## FRIDAY 



  

#### **Disclaimer, Apple TV+**

What would you do if you realised the book you were reading was all about you? And what if it exposed your deepest and darkest secrets? When that happens to her, acclaimed journalist Catherine Ravenscroft (Cate Blanchett) discovers the lengths she will go to in order to keep real life events a secret. Based on Renée Knight’s novel of the same name, this series is a cerebral psychological thriller with plenty of unreliable perspectives informing the narrative. A strong cast also includes Sacha Baron Cohen and Lesley Manville, while Alfonso Cuarón (*Children of Men, Roma, Gravity)* directs.
