description: Dive into the high-octane world of America’s Navy and Marine Corps’ jet training programme in Top Guns: The Next Generation, Sundays at 9pm on the National Geographic channel.
encoded: From heart-pounding dogfights to daunting low-flying drills, precision is everything in the world of elite fast jet training – and the US Navy and Marine Corps’ programme is no exception, as split-second decisions can mean the difference between success or failure. Now, the National Geographic channel is inviting you to experience the thrill of the cockpit in its compelling new docuseries, Top Guns: The Next Generation, which sees top pilots pushed to their absolute limits across six gripping episodes. You’ll watch them take on breathtaking bombing tests, learn to master aircraft carrier landings, face seasoned instructors in head-to-head dogfights, and tackle the intense final week before graduation. Every episode promises edge-of-your-seat action, so strap in and get ready to experience the adrenaline firsthand. Go inside the cockpit For the first time in history, the US Navy and Marines have granted filming access to their fast jet training bases, giving you up-close access to the final gruelling six months of training and selection through cockpit, training centre and in-flight footage. What’s more, the aerial team behind the footage includes Kevin LaRosa, Aerial Coordinator and Lead Camera Pilot for Top Guns: Maverick – who is no stranger to bringing high-speed, high-stakes drama to your screen. From the classroom to the cockpit, you’ll witness what it takes to earn your wings and compete for the chance to one day fly the world’s only long-range stealth strike fighter: the F-35. Meet the next generation Becoming an elite strike fighter pilot is the ultimate test of skill, nerve and speed, bringing immense challenges. Trainees dive at speeds they’ve never experienced before, wrestle with high-risk manoeuvres and face intense physical and mental strain. Some struggle to control their instincts or cope under pressure, while others rise to the occasion. But it’s not just about flying. Away from their training, students also juggle the weight of family expectations,…

description: Combining the ease of the tropics with the delights of the big city, Nassau Paradise Island in The Bahamas has all the makings of the perfect winter sun getaway.
encoded: Your favourite TV shows are great at providing a much-needed bit of escapism when you need it, but nothing compares to the real thing – and destinations don’t get much more spectacular than Nassau. Sure, The Bahamas has long been considered a playground of the rich and famous, but with its breath-taking natural beauty and warm welcome, its appeal is universal. Whether you’re planning a fun-filled family holiday or simply want to enjoy some quality R&R with your partner, Nassau has something for everyone; from the most incredible waterparks and serene beaches to spectacular bars and restaurants. Better still, if you’re a James Bond fan, this place will feel like a real-life film set, as it’s been used to shoot not one, but four movies in the much-loved franchise. The Sean Connery-fronted Never Say Never Again and Thunderball were filmed at the iconic British Colonial Hotel, while Daniel Craig’s Casino Royale was shot at the lavish The Ocean Club, a Four Seasons Resort. Roger Moore’s The Spy Who Loved Me was also shot here (though only the underwater scenes!). Read on to discover why this island metropolis has all you could want from a holiday destination. Next-level accommodation Nassau Paradise Island has a great range of accommodations to suit different budgets and tastes. At Atlantis Paradise Island, you can experience Bahamian culture, and marine activities along its five-mile coastline, while Baha Mar includes three hotel experiences – Grand Hyatt Baha Mar, Rosewood Baha Mar, and SLS Baha Mar – on 3,000 square feet of pristine beaches.

description: Sharp, witty and unlike any romcom you’ve seen before, The Lovers is the latest Sky Original series you need to watch.
encoded: Starring Roisin Gallagher (The Dry, The Fall) as Janet and Johnny Flynn (Beast, Emma) as Seamus, The Lovers is a sexy and darkly funny love story. It's a refreshing take on the ‘when worlds collide’ narrative, with Belfast providing the romantic backdrop to the action. Love at first fight It must be said that Janet is a far cry from your usual heroine. She’s a foul-mouthed, hilarious supermarket worker who doesn’t seem to care about very much at all. Instead, she drives her long-suffering boss and colleagues to despair and sees very little reason in living – quite the opposite to handsome, self-centred political broadcaster Seamus. On the surface, Seamus’s life looks pretty much perfect. He lives in London with his celebrity girlfriend and has just been given a new show to present, filming in Belfast… It's here that Seamus unexpectedly drops into Janet’s world (literally over her garden wall) and, given they’re from two completely different worlds, it’s little wonder the pair immediately clash – and yet they also find themselves inextricably drawn to each other. Of course, with much standing in their way, including opposing values and backgrounds, not to mention Seamus’s girlfriend and a dark secret Janet is harbouring from her past, can these two overcome everything that divides them to find happiness Packed full of laugh-out-loud moments that’ll have you thinking, “I can’t believe they just said that,” The Lovers is the ultimate portrayal of when something that seems to be so utterly wrong, could in fact be so utterly right. The Lovers is available to watch from 7th September on Sky.

Happily, Sky Glass has thought of pretty much everything, it’s not just another TV, it’s smarter than a smart TV. So, if you’re looking for ways to take your TV viewing experience to the next level, then read on… Make it crystal clear It’s almost impossible to lose yourself in a movie or series when the picture and sound quality aren’t up to scratch, so it’s important to go for a TV that delivers on both fronts. Boasting pixel-perfect 4K HDR, Sky Glass’s exceptionally detailed picture will help you feel like you’re really there. Plus, it comes with six speakers built in with Dolby Atmos® for a truly spine-tingling experience. It really is the best TV for movies! Save time searching With so many streaming services now available, finding something to watch can be seriously time-consuming. Instead, you can ask Sky Glass to find your favourite flick in a flash using the voice control function. Better still, the Playlist feature allows you to save your favourite movie to watch later, so when you’re sat down with your popcorn, you can do away with endless scrolling and dive straight in. Never miss a thing Picture the scene: you’ve poured yourself a drink, dimmed the lights, settled into the sofa, and are finally ready to enjoy that show you’ve been eyeing – only to realise it started 20 minutes ago. While being able to pause, rewind and restart on demand TV is nothing new, Sky Glass extends the privilege to live TV too, so you’ll never have to miss a moment again. Make your set-up seamless It’s usually the case that more mod cons also mean more wires. One of the benefits of Sky Glass is that everything is built in, meaning no need for messy wires and a cluttered living room set up.

Gemma Arterton brings the swinging '60s flooding back in this new drama

description: Arterton sparkles in Funny Woman, the bright, bold and brave new Sky Original based on the best-selling novel by Nick Hornby.
encoded: As the title might suggest, Funny Woman is a drama that puts the female experience of '60s Britain front and centre. But in an era when opportunities are in short supply, Barbara Parker just wants one thing: to be funny on her own terms. The show’s empowering message is what drew producer and lead star Gemma Arterton (Quantum of Solace, Murder Mystery) to the project. "Barbara was a character that I feel like I’ve always wanted to play and there’s a lot of stuff in there that I got to let out," she said. From the outset, we see our heroine objectified by the men around her as she’s crowned Miss Blackpool Belle 1964. Barbara’s response, however, is to promptly leave her fiancé and adoring father behind for the glitz of swinging London to pursue her dreams of a comedy career. "One of the things that Barbara struggles with is people judging her physically rather than what she can do and that happens a lot with women in workspaces," says Arterton. But having adopted the stage name Sophie Straw, she eventually finds herself with a lead part in a studio sitcom, much to the delight of her father, with whom she would recreate old comedy routines in the Blackpool rock factory. Finding her funny Arterton spoke of her admiration for the character’s trailblazing journey: "Women were accessories in comedy, and British comedy was particularly sexist. The roles that women had to do were the Benny Hill-type or the Carry On sexualized parts. It was quite extraordinary for a woman to make it in the 60s in comedy in the UK," she said. A cursory glance at the expanded cast list reveals a who’s who of British female comedy actors of the past 30 years. Star turns include Rosie Cavaliero (Little Dorrit, Friday Night Dinner) as Barbara’s domineering aunt, Doon Mackichan (Smack the Pony, Toast of London) as her prissy department store boss and the show’s multiple award-winning writer Morwenna Banks (Skins, Catterick) as her agent’s wife.

From gripping whodunnits to supernatural thrillers, the streaming service offers new shows weekly, and it doesn’t get much better than its latest offering, Signora Volpe. The series follows Sylvia Fox (Emilia Fox, Silent Witness), an attractive and intelligent woman in her 40s, who, to the casual observer, appears to lead quite the unremarkable life. When asked about her work, she answers with vague references to an unspectacular career in the Civil Service. Which is only very slightly true – because until recently, Sylvia was a high-ranking British spy. When she arrives in Italy for the wedding of her niece Alice, Sylvia is disillusioned with her job at the MI6 headquarters in London and in need of a break. But when the bridegroom disappears, leaving a dead body in the lake at the bottom of his garden, Sylvia quickly takes it upon herself to solve the mystery. Despite the unpromising start to her holiday, Sylvia is enchanted by Umbria, the green heart of Italy, and is surprised and pleased to find herself reconnecting with her estranged sister Isabel, who lives in the handsome hillside town of Panicale. So, when she stumbles upon a beautiful, derelict old house, Sylvia decides to buy it, quit her job, and start afresh. Sylvia wasn’t cut out for a quiet life, however, and she soon finds herself involved in a fresh mystery each week – from the disappearance of a young woman a quarter of a century ago, to the theft of a truffle pig, and a blackmail plot against the son of a Russian politician. At first, Carabinieri Captain Giovanni Riva (Giovanni Cirfiera, American Crime Story) resents the former spy’s interference, but it isn’t long before he begins to seek her help – and it seems his interest in Sylvia may not only be professional… Don’t miss Signora Volpe, streaming exclusively on Acorn TV every week from 2nd May.

encoded: Start spreading the news: GOLD’s latest comedy Newark, Newark is hitting our screens on 28th March, and it brings together an impressive line-up of stars of the small screen. We know the series is set in the East Midlands town of – you guessed it – Newark. But what else do we know about this GOLD original comedy? And is it really so good they named it twice? Here’s the lowdown, from the cast and writer to the plot and when you can see it first. Who is in Newark Newark? Newark, Newark features a stellar cast including Beverley Callard (Coronation Street), Mathew Horne (Gavin & Stacey) and comedian and impressionist Morgana Robinson – meaning it’s likely to bring plenty of laughs, as well as some touching moments. And as if that’s not enough, it’s directed by Amanda Blue, who helped bring us hit comedy The Windsors. Who wrote Newark Newark? It’s the new comedy from Nathan Foad – who’s previously worked on scripts for shows including The Great British Bake Off: An Extra Slice and has acted in Sky series Bloods (he also has a small role in this series). Reflecting on the experience of writing the show, Nathan says: “Making Newark, Newark is my wildest dream come true. If I could go back in time and tell my teenage self anything, I’d look him straight in his chubby little face and say, ‘Growing up different in this town might not be easy, but one day they’re gonna let you make a TV show about it. Also, learn to breathe through your nose’.” What’s Newark, Newark about? The semi-autobiographical show centres around gay teen Leslie and sees Robinson play his newly single mum Maxine, with Callard taking on the role of her meddling mother, Pauline, and Horne as Maxine’s hopeless ex, Terry. Like many of the best comedies, it reflects the everyday realities and humour of real life: much of the action is set around the family run fish and chip ship in the East Midlands town, so expect plenty of authentic moments.
