Set 200 years after the bombs fell, the series follows the sheltered residents of the pristine underground Vaults as they’re forced to confront the chaotic, ultra-violent world above. Season 2 dives deeper into the franchise’s rich lore, with Ella Purnell reprising her role as Lucy MacLean – the bright-eyed former Vault dweller who’s now navigating the Wasteland on a mission that’s become increasingly personal. Expect bigger quests, darker twists and the reunions fans have been waiting for, including developments around Lucy’s brother Norm, last seen uncovering a game-changing secret in Vault 31. *Visit* [PRIMEVIDEO.COM](https://www.primevideo.com/detail/Fallout/0KBDY8OBBE3Y0RV5FOQH96H3N6) [ ![Fallout 2](https://media.sheerluxe.com/y0ht6Kja6ISdknqvgmKeLuIlrJI=/800x0/smart/https%3A%2F%2Fsw18.sheerluxe.com%2Fsites%2Fsheerluxe%2Ffiles%2Farticles%2F2025%2F12%2Fwhat-to-watch-this-week-15-december-fallout.png) ](https://www.primevideo.com/detail/Fallout/0KBDY8OBBE3Y0RV5FOQH96H3N6) Fallout 2 #### A Mary Berry Christmas, BBC One Is it really Christmas without Mary Berry sprinkling some festive magic on our screens?

Landing on Netflix this month, season five promises a tale of two cities as Emily takes on new challenges in career and love. It’ll be more of the same: signature fashion moments, escapist glamour and headline-making plot twists that have made the show a global obsession – all set against an ultra-romantic Italian backdrop. *Visit* [NETFLIX.COM](https://www.netflix.com/title/81037371) [ ![Emily In Paris](https://media.sheerluxe.com/_Acy0xTKNH_v7PKJFzfUgh8Ls8Q=/800x0/smart/https%3A%2F%2Fsw18.sheerluxe.com%2Fsites%2Fsheerluxe%2Ffiles%2Farticles%2F2025%2F12%2Fwhat-to-watch-this-week-15-december-emily-in-paris.png) ](https://www.netflix.com/title/81037371) Emily In Paris ## FRIDAY #### Born To Be Wild, Apple TV Apple TV’s six-part wildlife series is all about heart, not horror. Narrated by Hugh Bonneville, it follows orphaned animals – from baby elephants and lemurs to bears, lynx, penguins and cheetahs – as they are nurtured by humans and gradually prepared to return to the wild. It’s full off irresistible cuteness, touching human-animal bonds and a glimpse into the challenges and triumphs of rehabilitation. *Visit* [TV.APPLE.COM](https://tv.apple.com/gb/movie/born-to-be-wild/umc.cmc.7g4cges5n0qejd6pmw0smvkkl) #### Breakdown: 1975, Netflix America was in turmoil in the mid-1970s – Vietnam, Watergate, economic upheaval – but the country also produced some of its most enduring cinema during this time. This fascinating documentary, narrated by Jodie Foster, explores how films like *Taxi Driver* and *One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest* captured the era’s disillusionment. Featuring insights from Martin Scorsese and Ellen Burstyn, *Breakdown: 1975* is a love letter to the movies born out of chaos, revealing how art mirrored a society in flux. *Visit* [NETFLIX.CO.UK](https://www.netflix.com/gb/title/81954014) [Skip to the rest of this article](#sidebar-bottom) ##
