Whilst spring is apparently running late this year, we’re bang on time with this week’s Must List.
And it’s a cracker – we’ve got an emotional documentary from a much loved sports star, a chuckle-filled comedy on Sky, a brand new season of Fargo, and a YouTube couple living the dream. Plus, move over Bridgerton, there’s a new sexy period drama in town…
After the booming success of bonkers Bridgerton, we now expect all period dramas to come with rampant shagging, camp costumes and wonderfully contrived conversation. Luckily screenwriter Emily Mortimer got the memo with this adaptation.
We’re used to seeing everyone’s favourite former Arsenal striker Ian Wright cheerfully chatting away on a BBC sofa with fellow football fanatics. But in this moving and profound documentary, we learn of the difficult childhood that preceded his sporting success.
With that title you may well be preparing yourself for a new high-octane medical drama with disaster round every corner. Well, you’d be right about that last part, but the drama is being left behind in this wonderfully silly show about NHS paramedics.
You’ve got to be pretty bold to take an iconic Coen brothers film and turn it into a series, and we completely understand if you expect this show to fall face first into the snow.
