[ Save To My Favourites ](/user/login?destination=/markdownify/node/49595) ## MONDAY #### Matthew Perry And The Ketamine Queen, BBC Three A chilling deep-dive into the events leading up to the tragic death of *Friends* star Matthew Perry. The documentary investigates Jasveen Sangha – dubbed the ‘Ketamine Queen’ by US prosecutors – who supplied the drugs that contributed to Perry’s death and has since pleaded guilty to multiple federal charges, facing decades behind bars. Presented by Amber Haque, the film combines exclusive interviews and meticulous reporting to unravel Sangha’s role and shine a light on Hollywood’s hidden ketamine network. *Visit* [BBC.CO.UK](https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m002n36t) #### Jamie's Cook Ahead Christmas, Channel 4 If you’re planning a festive feast but want to avoid the kitchen chaos, this seasonal special with Jamie Oliver is your new go-to.

A year after the tragedy that changed four families forever, secrets resurface, alliances shift and everyone must decide between revenge and redemption to move forward. Alberto Guerra, Ana Claudia Talancón, Sebastián Martínez and Eréndira Ibarra return, joined by Bárbara de Regil as the enigmatic Tamara “La Pantera”, whose reappearance shakes up El Charro’s world. New faces Andrés Almeida and Erika de la Rosa add fresh intrigue, while familiar favourites return to navigate love, betrayal and second chances. *Visit* [NETFLIX.COM](https://www.netflix.com/gb/title/81659092) ### Simon Cowell: The Next Act, Netflix Simon Cowell still has an unwavering belief in the power of a perfectly synchronised boyband. But in a world of TikTok careers and overnight fame, does his old-school star-making still work? This new Netflix series follows Cowell as he sets out to build the next great pop group from scratch, with auditions, boot camps and dramatic eliminations unfolding in satisfyingly familiar fashion. There’s an unintentional nostalgia to the format, which feels like a throwback to the golden age of talent TV. *Visit* [NETFLIX.COM](https://www.netflix.com/gb/title/81743409) [ ![Simon Cowell: The Next Act](https://media.sheerluxe.com/uX2XldZloFetGzCfg3NgZsOE0AA=/800x0/smart/https%3A%2F%2Fsw18.sheerluxe.com%2Fsites%2Fsheerluxe%2Ffiles%2Farticles%2F2025%2F12%2Fsimon-cowell.png) ](https://www.netflix.com/gb/title/81743409) Simon Cowell: The Next Act ## THURSDAY ### Man Vs Baby, Netflix Rowan Atkinson returns to bumbling form as Trevor Bingley – not too dissimilar to Mr Bean – in this slapstick festive comedy that leans heavily into baby-related mayhem. When Trevor’s carefully balanced life begins to unravel (his daughter heads off to university and his job hangs in the balance) he lands what feels like the perfect solution: a well-paid housesitting gig. The only catch? A mysterious baby abandoned on the school’s doorstep becomes his responsibility overnight. What follows is a series of wildly implausible, increasingly ridiculous set-pieces – but Atkinson’s gift for physical comedy remains as sharp as ever. *Visit* [NETFLIX.COM](https://www.netflix.com/gb/title/81923753) ## FRIDAY #### Ella McCay, cinemas nationwide Emma Mackey (*Sex Education*) leads this sharp political comedy-drama as Ella McCay, a 34-year-old lieutenant governor juggling family dramas and a sudden promotion after her mentor joins the Obama administration. Jamie Lee Curtis *(Halloween)* plays Ella’s aunt Helen, Woody Harrelson *(True Detective, Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri)* and *Rebecca Hall (The Night House)* are her parents, Jack Lowden is her husband Ryan, and Kumail Nanjiani *(The Big Sick)* plays Trooper Nash. *Visit* [ODEON.CO.UK](https://www.odeon.co.uk/films/ella-mccay/HO00007634/) [ ![Fackham Hall](https://media.sheerluxe.com/BfAGuM7FnTwWW9vPB-1gpYl2v5g=/800x0/smart/https%3A%2F%2Fsw18.sheerluxe.com%2Fsites%2Fsheerluxe%2Ffiles%2Farticles%2F2025%2F12%2Fsl-what-to-watch-fackham-hallpng.png) ](https://www.odeon.co.uk/films/fackham-hall/HO00008135/) Fackham Hall #### Fackham Hall, cinemas nationwide Set in 1930s England, *Fackham Hall* is a parody of traditional period dramas. The story follows Eric Noone (Ben Radcliffe), a pickpocket who finds himself entangled in romance, scandal and a murder investigation at an English manor. Damian Lewis stars as Lord Davenport, Thomasin McKenzie as Rose Davenport, Katherine Waterston as Lady Davenport and Tom Felton as Archibald. The film mixes comedy, romance and a whodunit twist in a clever spoof of aristocratic dramas. *Visit* [ODEON.CO.UK](https://www.odeon.co.uk/films/fackham-hall/HO00008135/) #### Goodbye June, Netflix Kate Winslet makes her directorial debut with this poignant Christmas drama. Four siblings face upheaval when their ailing mother takes a turn for the worse over the holidays. The ensemble cast includes Toni Collette, Johnny Flynn, Andrea Riseborough, Timothy Spall, Helen Mirren and Winslet herself.

The third instalment in the beloved whodunit franchise is set in a small‑town church with a dark past. Blanc teams up with a well‑meaning young priest when a shocking murder rocks the congregation – and everyone becomes a suspect.[ ](https://www.techradar.com/streaming/netflix/knives-out-3?utm_source=chatgpt.com)Expect a tangled web of secrets, twisted motives and Blanc’s trademark wit. Its all‑star ensemble cast includes Josh O'Connor, Glenn Close, Mila Kunis, Josh Brolin, Jeremy Renner and more. *Visit* [NETFLIX.COM](https://www.netflix.com/gb/title/81458424) ### Taylor Swift: The End Of An Era, Disney+ As Taylor Swift brings her record-breaking *Eras Tour* to a close, this six-part Disney+ documentary takes viewers behind the scenes of one of the biggest live music spectacles of all time. From costume changes and stage builds to dancer rehearsals and late-night logistics, the series lifts the curtain on the scale of the operation – and the emotional toll it takes. Swift is the anchor throughout but appearances from Ed Sheeran, Sabrina Carpenter and fiancé Travis Kelce add extra sparkle. Running alongside the final Vancouver dates, it feels like a love letter to fans – and a victory lap for one of pop’s most slickly executed eras. *Visit* [DISNEYPLUS.COM](https://www.disneyplus.com/en-gb/browse/entity-a948a435-fdcc-4cbe-b699-85dd62fec60b) [ ![Taylor Swift: The End Of An Era](https://media.sheerluxe.com/s3wJxeEQcGyyNVGpD6d0_qmtlcc=/800x0/smart/https%3A%2F%2Fsw18.sheerluxe.com%2Fsites%2Fsheerluxe%2Ffiles%2Farticles%2F2025%2F12%2Ftaylor-swift.png) ](https://www.disneyplus.com/en-gb/browse/entity-a948a435-fdcc-4cbe-b699-85dd62fec60b) Taylor Swift: The End Of An Era ### The Revenge Club, Paramount+ Divorce might be the catalyst, but revenge is the real entertainment in this dark, glossy comedy. Based on JD Pennington’s novel *The Othello Club*, the series follows six recently divorced strangers who meet through group therapy – and quickly abandon self-growth in favour of more creative forms of retaliation. Their targets? The exes who broke their hearts. From sabotaged dream homes to exquisitely timed public humiliations, their schemes grow increasingly elaborate, and increasingly ridiculous. The series is fronted by a strong British cast including Martin Compston (*Line of Duty*), Aimee-Ffion Edwards (*Peaky Blinders*) and Meera Syal (*The Kumars at No. 42*). *Visit* [PARAMOUNTPLUS.COM](https://www.paramountplus.com/gb/?gclsrc=aw.ds&&ftag=IPP-02-10bgb1b&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=17375546050&gbraid=0AAAAAohQd-IgMvidq3x3WpzV7S5kpzTZj&gclid=Cj0KCQiAi9rJBhCYARIsALyPDtvBellgHC-e3YMA2eEgml1cSiQXiX1V6-JnCDpltqDfG7orT3tufUAaApn9EALw_wcB) [Skip to the rest of this article](#sidebar-bottom) ##
