description: The long-awaited third outing is finally coming this April.
encoded: HBO has unveiled the first trailer for Euphoria season 3 as well as revealing when fans can expect the long-awaited next instalment of the multi-Emmy-award-winning show. The third outing, which will see the return of cast members including Zendaya, Jacob Elordi, Sydney Sweeney, Alexa Demie, and Hunter Schafer, is coming to our screens on 13th April, 2026 on Sky Atlantic and NOW. Season 3 will pick up five years after the ending of season 2, which saw Rue falling into debt to drug lord Laurie (Martha Kelly) and Nate (Elordi) getting his dad arrested, amongst other events. The new trailer follows Rue as she goes about her life after high school. "A few years after high school, I don’t know if life was exactly how I wished," we hear her saying in the footage. "Somehow for the first time, I was beginning to have faith." But that all soon comes to an end when Laurie shows up, reminding her that she owes her money. Meanwhile, Cassie (Sweeney) and Nate, whose relationship was exposed last season, are shown tying the knot. But there’s trouble in paradise as the "content" Cassie is filming seems to irritate Nate. “I work all day and my bride-to-be is spreadeagled on the internet”, he says. You can watch the trailer for yourself below: View oEmbed on the source website Showrunner Sam Levinson previously told The Hollywood Reporter that the new season is about "being out of the safety net of school". "The one thing we all agreed on is we can’t go back to high school — although many, many shows have had 30-year-old high school students, we’re not," he said. He added: "Five years felt like a natural place [to jump] because if they had gone to college they’d be out of college at that time." Also returning in season 3 are cast members Eric Dane, Chloe Cherry, Dominic Fike, Nika King and Colman Domingo, while new additions include Danielle Deadwyler, Eli Roth, Natasha Lyonne, Rosalía, Marshawn Lynch, Sam Trammell and Asante Blackk.

description: Everything you need to know about the cast of Grantchester.
encoded: Grantchester has returned to UK screens for its 10th season – and as ever, there's plenty of drama to keep you entertained. "As DI Geordie Keating (played by Robson Green) and Reverend Alphy Kottaram (Rishi Nair) continue to work together as a crime-solving duo in scenic Grantchester, they must also support each other through changing times, family struggles and personal secrets," read the official synopsis. "Alphy feels like he’s found a home, but he’s forced to confront secrets he’s kept close to his chest. Will he be able to let anyone fully in, or must he confront truths about himself first?" Speaking about the relationship between the two leads in the coming episodes, Green said that his character knows Alphy is hiding something. "There's a secret and a lie that is haemorrhaging within Alphy and that comes to the surface in season 10, which has a profound effect on their relationship and really fractures that, and really fractures the family of Grantchester, as do the crimes," he added. Expanding on that, Nair continued: "He’s going through a lot in season 10, he has to face his past again and open up boxes that he kind of thought he had dealt with and locked away. "And so, like anybody when you're dealing with stuff like that, your relationships with the people that you know, like Geordie, are affected, but also with new people..." View Green Video on the source website Season 10 marks the penultimate run of Grantchester, with the eleventh and final season having filmed last year. And after a chance encounter at a Cambridgeshire restaurant, none other than James Norton – who played original vicar Sidney Chambers – reunited with the cast and crew at their wrap party. "That was nuts," said Green of the unexpected reunion. "I'm sat next to Kacey [Ainsworth] and we’re all having dinner in a restaurant, just reminiscing, of course — and talking about our favourite subject… ourselves [laughs].

encoded: While the impending flood threat is still very much a feature of After the Flood as it returns to ITV1 and ITVX for season 2, this time Jo Marshall, who's now a certified detective, also has to deal with wildfires. "There's a scene when she's on the moors, there are wildfires, and of course she can’t help but get involved," said lead Sophie Rundle of what's in store in the coming episodes. "When everyone else tells her to run the other way, she runs toward the trouble, toward danger. That’s why we love her – fearless, reckless, a hero." Those are the same moors where Jo also discovers a dead body. "What unfolds is this spider web of conspiracy and lies, we bring new characters in, and it all has that climate activist undertone," she added. "Something is going on within the community that she needs to unpick, and all is not as it seems." But when can you watch it? And which cast members are joining Rundle? Read on for everything you need to know about After the Flood season 2. After The Flood season 2 release date: When will it air?

description: Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman last appeared together as the eponymous detective and his right-hand man, Doctor John Watson, in 2017.
encoded: Almost immediately after Mark Gatiss and Steven Moffat's Sherlock left our screens in 2017, fans have been desperate for Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman to reprise their roles as the eponymous detective and his right-hand man, Doctor John Watson. But while the show's co-creators have always been keen to revisit the characters in another season or a movie, Gatiss said last year that progress hadn't been made "because Benedict and Martin didn’t want to do any more". And sadly, that stance doesn't appear to have changed. During an interview with RadioTimes.com to promote his latest work – another crime adaptation in Agatha Christie's Seven Dials for Netflix – Freeman referenced Sherlock Holmes while answering a different question, providing the perfect opportunity to ask if there was any update on the BBC mystery series. "I love watching things where you are genuinely surprised – someone does something to somebody else and you go, 'Wow, I didn’t see that coming,'" he said of Seven Dials' ending, which kept him "guessing right up to the end". "It's a funny thing, I suppose, as an audience, because we want comfort. If you're going to have an Agatha Christie or a Sherlock Holmes or whatever, there are certain things you want. But you also want to be pulled up occasionally and go, 'Wow, that was even better because it surprised me as well.' "So hopefully that will do that to people. It did to me reading it, and because I've obviously seen all three episodes, it is surprising." "You did mention Sherlock Holmes – any update on that?" we then asked, to which Freeman laughed: "Not right now – sorry, why do I do these things?" before adding: "No, not right now. Sorry." But you will be able to watch Freeman in Seven Dials from 15th January. He plays Superintendent Battle alongside Mia McKenna-Bruce (How to Have Sex) as Lady Eileen 'Bundle' Brent, an amateur sleuth who investigates the death of a young man after a practical joke at her country home appears to have gone dr…

The 15th season of the beloved, sun-dappled detective show will start airing on 30th January 2026, with the first episode airing at 9pm on BBC One and BBC iPlayer. We don't yet know much about what will take place in the new episodes, but we do know that Don Gilet will be back as DI Mervin Wilson, along with Shantol Jackson as DS Naomi Thomas, Ginny Holder as Officer Darlene Curtis, Shaquille Ali-Yebuah as Officer Sebastian Rose and Elizabeth Bourgine as Catherine Bordey. Meanwhile, we're expecting Don Warrington to return as Commissioner Selwyn Patterson, after his future on the series was thrown into doubt all through last season. <img src="https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2025/03/death-in-paradise-selwyn-patterson-don-warrington-97c8076.jpg" width="1605" height="1070" alt="Don Warrington as Commissioner Selwyn Patterson, wearing a bright blue shirt with orange foliage design.

Coming to realise how important his job and Saint Marie were to him, Patterson was seen calling the chief commissioner at the end of that episode, asking if his role was still vacant and whether he could return to it. Meanwhile, season 15 is also likely to see Mervin getting to know the brother he never knew he had, after he managed to make contact with him briefly in the Christmas special. Elsewhere, the season will no doubt feature all the investigations, fun team dynamics and big name guest stars that fans have come to expect from the show over the years. Death in Paradise season 15 will start at 9pm on Friday …

description: Jim Rockford is back!
encoded: Beloved detective drama The Rockford Files is getting a modern update over 45 years since the series last aired. According to Deadline, NBC has ordered a pilot reboot of the James Garner-fronted show which ran from 1974-80. Created by Roy Huggins and Stephen J Cannell, the original Rockford Files follows ex-convict turned private investigator James "Jim" Rockford, who lives in a weathered mobile home in Malibu. Renowned for his cautious, if unconventional, approach to conflict, Rockford represented a very different kind of hero, using his wit and ingenuity to outsmart his opponents. The show received 18 Emmy nominations during its run and five awards, including Outstanding Drama Series in 1978. Garner also won an award for his acting, along with co-stars Stuart Margolin and Rita Moreno. The reboot project will be written by Mike Daniels (Bluff City Law) and is said to bring a “contemporary update” to the classic show. As in the original series, the reboot will see Jim Rockford use his charm and intellect to solve cases around Los Angeles. According to the official logline, it won’t take long for his quest for legitimacy to “land him squarely in the crosshairs of both local police and organised crime”. No more details have been provided yet, with no suggestion as to who will step into Garner’s sizeable shoes as the atypical detective. It’s sure to be a highly contested role and we’ll be watching the casting search closely. This isn’t the first time NBC has tried to bring Rockford back to our screens. In 2009, Steve Carell produced a reboot starring Dermot Mulroney and Alan Tudyk, for which a pilot was filmed but never broadcast. Universal Pictures also began development of a feature adaptation in 2012, but the project was ultimately postponed following Garner’s death in 2014. Despite previous reboot attempts failing to get off the ground, this news marks a significant decision by NBC to pick up new shows this year. Deadline reports that the network is aiming to make …

Idris Elba gives verdict on whether he would return for more Hijack – teases its potential future

description: What does the future hold for Hijack? We posed the question to star Idris Elba.
encoded: It's the thriller that kept us gripped (and feeling slightly claustrophobic) in season 1 but now, Hijack is back for more. This time round, things are going underground for another twisted hijacking scenario that Sam Nelson (Idris Elba) finds himself at the centre of, promising to be another thrill ride of a season. When season 2 was announced, some fans were surprised by the fact that the series – which took place on an aeroplane in season 1 – would be returning for more. "Would we be following another hijack?" and "How did Sam find himself caught in another one?" are just a couple of questions that sprung to mind for many when the trailer was released. But it turns out there could be more gas left in the tank once season 2 is over, according to Elba, who also serves as executive producer on the series. When chatting to RadioTimes.com exclusively, we asked him about how things wrap up for Sam in season 2. He teased: "I think there is this chase for closure throughout the season. The more that’s revealed from episode 1 all the way to the end, it’s like ‘What? Who? Why?’." He then went on to joke: "I think the satisfying beat at the end is this moment of Sam, dead or alive. Alright, I’m being silly – no!" On a more serious note, Elba continued: "We owe it to an audience with the nature of this to give them some answers and Sam wants answers as well. That’s what I think this explosive element is." As for anymore further instalments of Hijack, Elba revealed: "People ask me about ‘would you do another season?’ and I say I’m not sure how you could. But actually, I do think that there is another layer of storytelling that it wouldn’t necessarily involve hijacking. At this junction, if you like this series and this story, the hijacks, the hijacking is part of something else, isn’t it? "I don’t think we’ll ever come back – we’ll have to drag [co-creator Jim Field Smith] from Barbados – but there’s definitely the man Sam Nelson and what trauma looks like post-something like …

description: A shocking betrayal by this key supporting character triggers a bold revenge play by Emma Harte (Brenda Blethyn).
encoded: Channel 4's new adaptation of iconic story A Woman of Substance has added another big name to its ensemble in the form of EastEnders alum Jo Joyner. Brenda Blethyn (Vera) stars in the upcoming eight-part series, which is based on Barbara Taylor Bradford's novel of the same name, taking the main role of Emma Harte; a woman who goes on a "rags to riches" journey over an extraordinary life. The role of Emma is shared between Blethyn and Jessica Reynolds (House of Guinness), who plays her at an earlier stage of her life. They fill the shoes of Deborah Kerr and Jenny Seagrove, who co-starred in Channel 4's prior adaptation in 1985. RadioTimes.com can exclusively confirm that Stay Close and Ackley Bridge star Joyner will play Elizabeth Harte Ainsley in the new series; the eventual daughter of Emma, who shockingly deceives her mother in a betrayal of trust. The incident prompts Emma to take revenge on those she considers to be traitors – and suffice it to say, Elizabeth falls firmly into that group. Here's a first look at Joyner in the role, courtesy of Channel 4: <img src="https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2026/01/JoJoyner-AWomanofSubstance-08968dc.jpg" width="4500" height="3000" alt="Jo Joyner stars in A Woman of Substance; she is seen here in a house, where a party is being thrown.

"Her masterplan: Get to the top. Whatever it takes," teases the synopsis. A Woman of Substance's large cast also includes Emmett J Scanlan (Mobland), Lydia Leonard (Wolf Hall: The Mirror and The Light), Will Mellor (Mr Bates vs the Post Office), Lenny Rush (Am I Being Unreas…

description: Co-creator Ashley Pharoah has teased "something is stirring" – but it seems it's not on the BBC.
encoded: In 2020, Life on Mars fans saw all their wishes come true, as it was announced that a sequel series to both it and its follow-up Ashes to Ashes, was in the works. Titled Lazarus, the show was set to see Philip Glenister and John Simm reprise their roles, but it was later confirmed in 2023 that it had been scrapped, with co-creator Matthew Graham citing "financial" reasons. Now, co-creator Ashley Pharoah has teased that there could still be hope yet, as The Sun has reported that he said: "Something is stirring in the Life on Mars world. I’m sworn to secrecy but the Cortina isn’t ready for the scrapyard just yet. "It really puzzled us that no one wanted to make Lazarus — the fans certainly did. We had always planned to do three series, not two. I remember there was a bit of worry from the BBC." In spite of this, it seems fans shouldn't too excited just yet. In its response to The Sun, the BBC said in a statement: "There are no plans for Life on Mars to return to the BBC." This could perhaps mean that Pharoah is referring to a return for the series in another format or on another platform. For now, we will have to wait and see. Pharoah and Graham created Life on Mars along with Tony Jordan, and the original show, a combination of sci-fi and period crime drama, ran for two seasons between 2006 and 2007. It was followed up by three seasons of Ashes to Ashes between 2008 and 2010, with Keeley Hawes' Alex Drake taking the place of Simm's Sam Tyler. When follow-up show Lazarus was cancelled in 2023, Graham said in a statement on Twitter, which has now been re-branded as X: "Some sad news folks. After many months of planning, we will now not be making Lazarus. I can't go into details but the hurdles were financial not creative. Naturally all who were involved are sick as a jungle full of parrots. Not least myself and Ashley Pharoah. "It was a cracking concept – pertinent to our times. It had a whole new round of things to say about the relationship between the public and the…

encoded: After taking us on a tense seven-hour flight from Dubai to London in season 1, Hijack is back on our screens for more – and this time, we're going underground. Idris Elba is back in the leading role as Sam Nelson, the smart-thinking business negotiator who managed to get to the bottom of the situation in season 1 and risked the lives of himself, the passengers onboard and his family to do so. This season, Sam is once again at the heart of an unfolding crisis on a Berlin underground train – but is everything really all as it seems? When the train and its passengers are taken hostage, Sam is caught up in it all in the most surprising of ways. But of course, some time has elapsed between season 1 and 2, with Elba telling RadioTimes.com exclusively about what that means for the emotional state of his character. Speaking about what Sam has gone through in the run up to this second outing, Elba teases: "I think it’s real trauma, it’s real loss and trying to understand... Sam, for a living, negotiates, closes deals and finds weak spots. I can just imagine that he couldn’t really face himself, looking in the mirror and not understanding how he got there. "And then of course, for it to continue and it got worse, we see a man that’s really a shell but so determined. That determination is what we leaned into to keep this train running.” This season, fans have eight episodes to get excited about rather than season 1's seven-part count. But when do new instalments land on Apple TV? Read on for everything you need to know. When is episode 2 of Hijack season 2 released on Apple TV? While plenty of Apple TV dramas tend to treat us to a batch release of the first episodes in a series, Hijack season 2 has actually only premiered with its first episode on Wednesday 14th January. That means that the rest of the series will be available to stream every Wednesday on the streamer, with the second episode set to be released on Wednesday 21st January.

encoded: Get ready for some edge of your seat action as Apple TV's Hijack returns to our screens for its second outing. Where the first season saw Sam Nelson (Idris Elba) tackle a hijacking situation up in the air, this season sees the expert negotiator deep in the Berlin underground. With the first two episodes of the season already released, we know that not all is quite what it seems in this hijack situation as time has obviously elapsed since we last saw Sam on our screens. Both series co-creator Jim Field Smith and Idris Elba told RadioTimes.com that they were surprised by the reaction to season 1, with Elba saying: "I’m excited for it, I think we were all surprised at how well received it was.

description: The new adaptation will be a “bold and contemporary reimagining” set in the present.
encoded: 15 years after the movie starring Rooney Mara and Daniel Craig was released, Sky has greenlit a Girl with the Dragon Tattoo TV series. The eight-part series, which is coming to our screens courtesy of Left Bank Pictures (the team behind The Crown and Dept Q), will be based on Stieg Larsson’s globally bestselling novels. The series promises to be a “bold and contemporary reimagining” set in the present that’s “grounded in the characters and investigative DNA of Stieg Larsson’s Millennium novels, with themes that carry heightened relevance today". The three books in Larsson’s Millennium novel series follow the investigative journalist Mikael Blomkvist and computer hacker Lisbeth Salander, and have sold millions of copies globally. Larsson’s novels were first given the big-screen treatment in the Swedish trilogy starring Michael Nyqvist and Noomi Rapace, before David Fincher brought an English-language version of the first book to our screens in 2011, with Rooney Mara and Daniel Craig starring in the lead roles.

It was previously reported by Variety that Amazon was working on a TV series based on The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo that would be centred on Lisbeth Salander, and feature a new storyline, new setting and new characters, but the show never made it out of the development stage. Casting details for the new Sky series have yet to be announced, but production is set to begin in Lithuania in the spring.

description: Despite the couple's hopes, their introduction doesn't go to plan.
encoded: In a teaser for Call the Midwife's upcoming episode, which aired at the end of season 15's debut, we got our first glimpse of Rosalind's parents, who are set to meet Cyril for the first time as their relationship moves to the next level. And in a selection of first-look pictures, which you can see here, her mum and dad join the couple for tea, which sounds lovely in theory. But as we know, it doesn't quite go to plan. "Both Major Clifford (David Bark-Jones) and Josephine (Natasha Joseph) are polite but as the afternoon draws on, the atmosphere becomes brittle and strained," reads the official synopsis, which Zephryn Taitte previously spoke about. "He has to wrestle with her parents and how they may view him and judge him, rightly or wrong," he said. "So, there's a lot for Cyril to contend with this season. There's love, but it's bittersweet." Natalie Quarry confirmed that the couple – who first grew close in last year's Christmas special, before then growing closer once Cyril and Lucille's divorce was under way – are "tested" by what comes their way this season, which forces Rosalind to "grow up a lot". "It changes her perspective on some stuff, and there's good and there's bad. It's a big year for her, an exciting year," she added. <img src="https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2026/01/ctm-bbc-ros-cyril-3f0498c.jpg" width="4284" height="2856" alt="Four people sit around a small dining table in a cosy, mid-century kitchen, sharing tea and food.

The spy thriller returned from a decade-long absence on New Year's Day, reintroducing Jonathan Pine (Tom Hiddleston) as he goes undercover inside the operation of emerging arms dealer Teddy Dos Santos (Diego Calva). In the first three episodes alone, Pine has already made several disturbing discoveries, particularly relating to Teddy's connections to his former nemesis Richard Roper (Hugh Laurie). At this point, it's anybody's guess what could happen in the second half of the season, but we're starting to suspect that things won't be wrapped up neatly – especially given that a third installment is already confirmed. Camila Morrone, Hayley Squires and Indira Varma also star in The Night Manager season 2, while Academy Award winner Olivia Colman is back in a recurring capacity as her no-nonsense intelligence boss Angela Burr.

description: The LGBTQ+ sports romance has taken the internet by storm.
encoded: Heated Rivalry is the ice hockey romance that’s got everyone talking, and UK viewers can finally get in on the action. The steamy Canadian drama landed across the pond on 10 January after a tantalising six-week wait and is available to stream now. Based on the novel of the same name by Rachel Reid, the show follows the secret and burgeoning romance between hockey rivals Shane Hollander (Williams) and Ilya Rozanov (Connor Storrie) – who are also Canadian and Russian respectively, which adds an extra layer of spice. "I think the writing is brilliant," Williams said (via The Hollywood Reporter) of why it's become so incredibly popular. "I know there is a lot of sex and a lot of stuff that’s sparking interest in it. There’s a very garish title. It’s not subtle in advertising. But I always thought from the moment I read [them], they are Emmys quality scripts, and Jacob [Tierney] is a brilliant writer." "I’m honoured to be a part of this. All Connor and I could do was f**k it up," he added, going on to tell Variety that he was instantly drawn to his character. "I mean, I was falling in love with him even when I read the sides, which were just the audition… like, two scenes I got for the audition. By the time I finished reading episode 6, I was crying. I felt like no one else was allowed to play him. I needed to play him." Speaking about the casting of the two leads, on which the entire show hinges, Reid revealed that Storrie's came first. "I didn’t even hear about another possibility for Ilya," she added. "If there was one, I didn’t know about it. I know that [screenwriter] Jacob was very excited about Connor. But it was a thing where we said that he pretty much has to be actually Russian because if he’s not, it’s going to be so distracting. People will be able to tell. The whole thing falls apart if he’s not believably Russian. "So when he told me, 'Well, he’s American and does not have Russian heritage, but he’s really good,' I was like, 'Well, OK, if you say so.'

Well, the pair have now joined forces for a brand new thriller that's set to air later this year. It's been confirmed that Halfpenny and Lindsay will be leading the cast of Number One Fan, a four-part thriller set in the world of daytime TV as one morning show presenter is saved from a vicious attack by a mysterious woman claiming to be her number one fan... Halfpenny – who previously starred in 5's The Holiday, The Cuckoo and The Feud – plays presenter Lucy, described as "the nation’s sweetheart, BFF and presenter of Lucy Live". According to the synopsis: "She tells it like it is with a big smile on her face and a twinkle in her eye. She’s ambitious, hardworking and beneath it all, thoroughly ruthless." Lindsay – known for her roles in 5's The Madame Blanc Mysteries and Love Rat – is Donna, "an obsessed fan who appears as a mousey, non-threatening nobody, but steps in to save Lucy from a horrific attack". It continues: "Lucy’s gratitude quickly sours when Donna’s fandom turns into a darker obsession infiltrating Lucy’s career, family and friends. However to her horror Lucy comes to realise that Donna has a link to a hidden secret in her past which threatens to derail the career she has so carefully curated."

description: Watch out, Pine!
encoded: **Warning: contains spoilers for The Night Manager season 2 episode 3.** The Night Manager season 2 star Hugh Laurie has addressed the shock return of his character at the end of episode 3, detailing how Richard Roper survived his years in captivity – and what his plans are now. The arms dealer experienced an almighty fall from grace at the end of season 1, after Jonathan Pine (Tom Hiddleston) sabotaged a massive weapons sale, which left Roper heavily indebted to his furious customers. It seemed he had paid the ultimate price for his failure, with Pine and his former handler Angela Burr (Olivia Colman) travelling to Syria in the season 2 prologue, where they identified the body of a bruised and dishevelled Roper. While stopping short of explaining how that particular deception was pulled off, Laurie has filled in some of the blanks in our knowledge ahead of this weekend's episode. He began: "For a large chunk of the intervening years, [Roper] was a prisoner, essentially a hostage to the shadowy cartel to whom he owed a great deal of money. "Initially they were going to simply kill him, but Roper’s a good talker and he's quick on his feet, and he was able to bargain with them. The captive can sometimes gain the upper hand over the captor, even though he doesn't have the key to the door." Although Roper appears to have returned to his old tricks in The Night Manager season 2, Laurie is quick to clarify that this isn't business as usual for the character. Rather, there are enormous personal stakes attached to this latest scheme. "He's got himself back onto the playing field and reactivated a lot of his contacts and formed a plan that will allow him to pay off his debt and therefore survive, because if he doesn’t, they will surely get him," the former House star explained. "But also to rebuild his empire, and once again, conquer all. He's a conqueror really, a pirate, and he will never stop dreaming of the treasure of taking people, territory, and control."

description: "You get to see how that abandonment and that solitude from his family impacts all the relationships at school."
encoded: If there's one character that is sure to get under your skin in Tell Me Lies, it's Stephen DeMarco. The controversial character has been at the heart of scandal, mystery and pulling the strings in exacting revenge against on-off lover Lucy Albright (Grace Van Patten) since the first season. Now, the third season of Tell Me Lies has premiered with its first two episodes and while we could've only hoped that Stephen would potentially return to our screens with some good in his heart, it seems as though that ship has sailed for now. While he's back on Baird College campus with things seemingly all well and good with Lucy, it's not long before the cracks start to show and Stephen is back to his usual tricks. Since season 1, we've known that Stephen comes from a dysfunctional family environment and we saw actor Jackson White's real-life mother Katey Sagal portray Stephen's narcissistic mother Nora. But how does Stephen's complicated family life impact him, if it all? We posed the question to White, who told RadioTimes.com exclusively: "It always does. He’s a very complicated, historical person. He has a lot that he comes from. He’s obsessive, compulsive and secretive. That’s always going to come into play with the people around him. "You get to see, again, where that comes from. You get to see how that abandonment and that solitude from his family impacts all the relationships at school. You get a glimpse into it. What’s great about this season is you have a true ensemble going on, you got a lot of amazing storylines. So you get to see a little bit of everything.” As for the 2015 timeline, things left on quite the cliffhanger at the end of the season 3 finale as Stephen sent the voice note (which he'd been harbouring since 2008) that proves that Lucy and Evan (Branden Cook) had slept together and not told anyone. Stephen didn't just send that voice note to anyone, but sent it to Evan's bride-to-be Bree (Catherine Missal) on her wedding day – something which we see didn't…

encoded: Chris Chibnall may currently be promoting his new Netflix series Agatha Christie's Seven Dials, but he will previously be returning to the channel that brought us his acclaimed drama, Broadchurch. That's because Chibnall is working on a new series for ITV, Death at the White Hart, which is an adaptation of the writer's own novel that was released earlier this year. As Chibnall was speaking with us exclusively for our video interview series The Radio Times Writers' Room, in which we get to know what makes screenwriters tick, we asked the writer for an update on the new project – and how he is finding the adaptation process. "Yeah, it's interesting," he said of adapting his own prior work. "You've got different hats, really. So, you have to find the voice for the adaptation that is slightly different from the book. So yeah, we're working with a great team on that – just quite early days in adapting that. "But yeah, it's nice. It's nice because I know the world and all that kind of stuff, and then you're just doing a different job. It's very useful having done the Seven Dials adaptation first. So yeah, we’ll see." Chibnall's current series, Agatha Christie's Seven Dials, is an adaptation of Christie's 1929 novel The Seven Dials Mystery, and stars Mia McKenna-Bruce as amateur sleuth Lady Eileen 'Bundle' Brent. The synopsis for the series says: "England. 1925. At a lavish country house party, a practical joke appears to have gone horribly, murderously wrong. It will be up to the unlikeliest of sleuths – the fizzingly inquisitive Lady Eileen 'Bundle' Brent – to unravel a chilling plot that will change her life, cracking wide open the country house mystery." As part of his conversation for The Radio Times Writers' Room, Chibnall also spoke about his work on Broadchurch, Doctor Who, Torchwood and more, as well as revealing details of how he initially was developing a version of Merlin that never came to screens.

Speaking to Deadline, Domingo said: "We’re gonna have a devastatingly gorgeous, epic season that I think is breaking the mould of television. I think it’s gonna become more cinema than television." Domingo will return as recovering drug addict and sponsor to Rue Bennett (Zendaya), Ali Muhammad. Ali is set to get more of a backstory this season, with Domingo promising that viewers will "get to look at the building blocks of Ali". He added: "I think you may get a little bit of his origin story, which I think is great, and so you can understand why Ali is who he is." Fans will be pleased to know that there’s not long to wait until Euphoria hits our screens again – season 3 will premiere in April 2026. It’s not yet clear if episodes will land at the same time in the UK as the US, but the HBO Max rollout in the UK and Ireland in March suggests that this could be the case. Other stars have also hinted at what the new season has to offer. Speaking on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, Sydney Sweeney admitted that Cassie is "crazy", adding that in the new season she’s "even worse". Meanwhile, series creator Sam Levinson spoke at the HBO Max presentation in London in December and revealed (via Variety) that the story picks up five years after season 2. He said: "We basically pick up Rue south of the border in Mexico, in debt to Laurie [Martha Kelly], trying to come up with some very innovative ways to pay it off." Responding to circulating rumours about Cassie and Nate’s [Jacob Elordi] controversial relationship, Levinson confirmed that wedding bells are indeed ringing. He added that viewers can expect the pair's wedding to be an "unforgettable night". He also revealed where we can expect to find the other characters post high school.

description: It's taken the world by storm – and now all eyes are on season 2.
encoded: Steamy ice hockey romance Heated Rivalry has finally arrived in the UK, following a six-week wait for the much-hyped show to make the journey across the pond. The series, which is now available on Sky Atlantic and NOW, follows the secret love affair that unfolds between professional sportsmen Shane Hollander (Hudson Williams) and Ilya Rozanov (Connor Storrie). The show has attracted no shortage of attention for its sex scenes, but has also earned praise for its heartfelt romance and discussions around the difficulty of coming out – especially for those living in the public eye. After becoming a breakout hit, making overnight stars of its lead actors Williams and Storrie, it should come as no surprise that Canadian streaming platform Crave quickly ordered more episodes of the LGBTQ+ drama. But, unfortunately for fans, we now have a wait on our hands before any new chapters arrive. Here's everything we know so far about Heated Rivalry season 2, including comments from showrunner Jacob Tierney and author Rachel Reid. Heated Rivalry season 2 release date speculation Heated Rivalry season 2 does not yet have a confirmed release, but it seems safe to assume that the show's next chapter will be a top priority for Canadian streamer Crave and its US partner HBO Max. The show swiftly earned a renewal in December 2025, amid a massive wave of acclaim and popularity, but showrunner Jacob Tierney admitted later that month that he hadn't started plotting the second season. With any luck, the show will be able to stick to a roughly annual production cycle, which would point to a premiere date in winter 2026, but that's just speculation for the time being.

encoded: It's nearly time to bid farewell to Tommy Egan (Joseph Sikora) and Diamond Sampson (Isaac Keys), as Power Book IV: Force is set to wrap up in just one week. Eagle-eyed fans may have noticed that there's no new episode to get stuck into this week, with the hit drama clearly keeping us on tenterhooks until the finale airs next Saturday. While things have continued to be high-stakes for Tommy this season, it's unfortunately the final instalment of this Power series. Fans have known for a while that this third season was to be the show's last, but there's no doubt that some viewers will still be sad to say farewell to this memorable era for the character. Sikora is clearly reflecting on his time with the show as he recently shared a behind-the-scenes photo to Instagram with co-star Keys, referring to him as his "brother" and adding that people don't come "any better" than him. Of course, Sikora's journey in the Power universe is still ongoing, with upcoming sequel series Power: Legacy set to reunite him with Michael Rainey Jr (aka Tariq St Patrick in both the original series and Book II: Ghost). The two actors have already spent more than a decade inhabiting the world of the Starz and MGM+ drama, so it'll be an exciting turn for their characters as we wait to see what else is in store for them. In addition to Legacy, the timeline of the Power universe will extend further backwards too, with prequel series Power: Origins set to explore the early years of Tommy and ex-partner James St Patrick. It's now been confirmed that Charlie Mann and Spence Moore II will be tackling those leading roles, respectively. So, while the franchise might be shelving one of its 'books', there is plenty more to watch further down the line. Here's when to expect the final episode of Power Book IV: Force season 3.

encoded: It appears that it's the dawn of a new Sam Nelson as we gear up for a second season of Hijack. The Apple TV series was a hit for the streamer when it first landed on our screens in 2023 but now, it's time to return to the high-stakes world of Sam as he finds himself embroiled in his most dangerous situation yet. According to series star and executive producer Idris Elba, this season also marks a new dawn for Sam and what kind of emotional baggage he's bringing into the story this time around. Speaking exclusively to RadioTimes.com, Elba says: "I think it’s real trauma, it’s real loss and trying to understand... Sam, for a living, negotiates, closes deals and finds weak spots. I can just imagine that he couldn’t really face himself, looking in the mirror and not understanding how he got there. "And then of course, for it to continue and it got worse, we see a man that’s really a shell but so determined. That determination is what we leaned into to keep this train running.” Series co-creator Jim Field Smith also said of Sam's emotional state: "There’s a point halfway through this season where Sam is trying to figure out how to split the train in half. He catches himself in the reflection, he’s literally at the halfway point of the train, it’s the halfway point of the season. "For four or five seconds in time, it’s like ‘how have I got here?’. Whatever’s happened, he’s not going to let anyone get him down. He’s still thinking ‘I can’t let these people win’ and he’s going to get answers and get to the end of the line, metaphorically and physically." This season unfolds on the Berlin underground system, teasing that its "commuters are taken hostage, while authorities scramble to save hundreds of lives. Sam Nelson (Elba) is at the heart of the crisis on board, where one wrong decision could spell disaster". The series is set to be just as fast-paced and thrilling as the first, with the main difference of course being the mode of transport that everything unfolds in. Read …

description: Fans may have to wait a little while, but it seems another one-shot story could be on the way...
encoded: When it comes to TV in 2025, it's hard to think of a show that dominated conversation more than Adolescence, which scored enormous viewership figures and has gone on to win what feels like every award going. The four-part drama picked up another host of awards at last night's (Sunday 11th January) Golden Globes, with Stephen Graham, Erin Doherty and Owen Cooper all picking up gongs for their performances. After this win, Graham was asked that all-important question, which has been swirling around since the show's debut – will there be some form of follow-up? Graham said (via Deadline): "I cannot answer that question because it’s somewhere in the deep recesses of my mind and Jack [Thorne, co-creator]’s mind, and we’ll pull it out in three or four years, so stay tuned." <img src="https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2026/01/GettyImages-2255804736-e9a3941.jpg" width="4316" height="2878" alt="Stephen Graham, winner of the Best Actor in a Limited Series, Anthology Series, or Television Movie Award for "Adolescence," speaks onstage during the 83rd Annual Golden Globe Awards at The Beverly Hilton on January 11, 2026 in Beverly Hills, California." title="CBS's Coverage of the 83rd Annual Golden Globe Awards - Show and Backstage" /> Given this, it seems fans have a wait on their hands. It's unclear what form a follow-up to Adolescence would take, but Graham's comments align with reporting from Deadline last year, which said that Brad Pitt’s Plan B production company was in discussions with director Philip Barantini about a potential second season. Whatever the case, it certainly seems as though fans shouldn't expect a direct prequel or sequel, with Thorne having told ITV’s This Morning last year that "Jamie’s story is finished". He added: "I don’t think there’s anywhere more we can take Jamie, so I don’t think there is a series 2. We’d love to explore the one-shot format in another way. We’d love to tell other stories with it, but I don’t think a series…

description: Fantastic music is a given in Industry, but what songs feature in season 4?
encoded: The fourth season of BBC/HBO drama Industry has finally arrived on our screens in the UK and the US, with the critical acclaim overarching and our list of joyfully semi-problematic characters continuing to grow. This season is a completely new chapter for the main players of the financial drama as things take a step away from Pierpoint, with Harper (Myha'la) forging a new path at Otto Mostyn's (Roger Barclay) fund and Yasmin's (Marisa Abela) seemingly picture-perfect marriage to Sir Henry (Kit Harington) proving itself to be anything but. With just one episode of the new season having been released, things are already cemented as being pretty high-stakes, especially with the season's focus on payment processor Tender. CFO Whitney (Max Minghella) finished the episode on a surprising note, stepping into the main leading role at the company. The Handmaid's Tale star previously described the "genuine pressure" at joining the cast but it's safe to say that the enigmatic Whitney is one character we can't wait to learn more about. And while Industry is full of new characters this season, one of the other biggest ones in the show is the music. As well as its signature synth and electro score (which is composed by Nathan Micay), the fourth season is jam-packed full of '80s anthems that'll take on new meaning in the drama. But what songs are featured in each episode? Scroll on to find out about the music used so far in the new season (which will be updated weekly), as well as the soundtrack of Industry season 3.

Industry season 4 takes a risky step away from Pierpoint – and it’s all the better for it

description: Industry continues to knock it out of the park – this time, with its strongest and most unpredictable season yet.
encoded: Industry has always been the financial drama that plummets those of us with no knowledge of that high-stakes world directly into its fiery hot centre. "Is it just about banker bros and gilets?", many have often asked me when I proclaim it to be one of the best shows on telly. While both of those things admittedly do appear in plentiful supply throughout the show, the draw of Industry is the chaos and the impending sense of doom of a world that not many of us get a real window into. Previous seasons of Industry were defined by the overarching way in which it encapsulated what one person's worst day ever could look like – then putting it against the backdrop of a fast-paced and cutthroat working world that doesn't take any prisoners. We saw as much in season 3, where things took an even darker turn than ever before in what many fans felt like was Industry's last hurrah. Not because anybody wanted it to be, but rather because it felt as though storylines and characters had been tied up in a way that many showrunners would see as a perfect time to bow out. But series co-creators and ex-bankers Mickey Down and Konrad Kay got their early renewal and a chance to open up Industry to shores anew, going to places the HBO/BBC show has never gone to before. No longer can it really fit into the neat box of "financial drama" because, while we certainly still have one major foot in that world this season, these new episodes are all about taking risks and opening up the parameters of what people think Industry (and its characters) are capable of. Those gilet-clad previous seasons were contained within the walls of Pierpoint & Co, a prestigious investment bank in London that chewed up and spat out our plucky group of grads in season 1. Now, only two of them remain with Harper (Myha'la) and Yasmin (Marisa Abela) returning for their own positively twisty stories. But with Pierpoint having reached its own demise and being bought by Egyptian investors at the end of season 3, where exact…
