The final instalment of the epic royal saga is here at last. As The Crown comes to a close, the year is 1997 and Princess Diana (Elizabeth Debicki) is at the height of her celebrity; harassed relentlessly by the paparazzi as her marriage to Charles breaks down and her relationship with Dodi Fayed develops.

Here to steal the hearts of Bridgerton superfans the world over is this new period drama based on Edith Wharton’s final novel.

This Benny Safdie-created black comedy is as unsettling as it hilarious, and stars Emma Stone and Nathan Fielder as smug, faux philanthropists who are “ethically gentrifying” their neighborhood by flipping houses – while being trailed by a camera crew in a bid to get picked up for their very own reality TV show. When a disgruntled local resident sets a curse on the couple, their fortunes start to unravel in the most deliciously dysfunctional way.

Multi-hyphenate marvel Brit Marling is the brains behind this new sci-fi thriller – which she co-writes, co-directs and stars in, no less. The series follows amateur sleuth Darby Hart (Emma Corrin), who, along with eight other guests, is invited to a retreat at the home of a reclusive billionaire (Clive Owen). When a guest dies in mysterious circumstances, it is up to Hart and companion Bill (Harris Dickinson) to untangle the mystery. On Hulu now

The dominating pop-culture phenomenon of the 1980s came in the form of four genetically blessed superbeings. Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford, Linda Evangalista and Christy Turlington were the original supermodels – and they captivated the world.

Following her outstanding performance in The Serpent, Jenna Coleman continues her trajectory into the dramatic stratosphere with this hugely pleasing Gone Girl-style thriller. Liv (Coleman) and Will (Oliver Jackson-Cohen) are newlyweds on a road trip across America, attempting to fix a marriage already fractured by infidelity. But do they actually want to fix things? Or does one of them (perhaps, even, do both of them) want the other dead? If it sounds like the TV equivalent of a beach read, that’s because it is. And it’s all the more watchable for it. On Prime Video now

Based on Bonnie Garmus’ beloved novel of the same name, this adaptation follows unlikely heroine Elizabeth Zott, a hugely talented and ambitious scientist in 1950s America, who is burdened by the unfortunate situation of being a woman. Played with glorious self-awareness by Oscar-winner Brie Larson, Elizabeth is fired from her job in the lab and finds herself hosting a TV cooking show. But they can’t keep a good scientist down – nor her audience of women, who are hungrier for mental stimulation than they are a good dinner. On Apple TV+ now

Painful crushes, physical awkwardness, sexual confusion and (to quote creator Laurie Nunn) “big, big feelings” made Sex Education a huge cross-generational hit when it first landed in 2019. Now its fourth and final season is upon us, and we get ready to wave goodbye to the original cast, including Emma Mackie (hot off Barbie), Asa Butterfield, Ncuti Gatwa (ahead of his Doctor Who debut later this year), Aimee Lou Wood and the always-sensational Gillian Anderson. Dan Levy and Jodie Turner-Smith are new starry additions for the final outing, to help the show go out with a bang. On Netflix now

The god of mischief is back, and Tom Hiddleston is having more fun than ever with his multiverse time-jumping antihero. Owen Wilson returns as the eternally patient Morbius, Loki-alternate Sylvie (Sophia Di Martino) is working in McDonald’s, and Gugu Mbatha-Raw’s Ravonna Renslayer appears to have several variants of her own (all magnificently dressed). Most tempting of all, however, is the opportunity to watch Everything Everywhere Oscar-winner Ke Huy Quan return to chaos playing Ouroboros, with a bag of envy-inducing tricks. On Netflix now

It’s still dog-eat-dog in the newsroom at The Morning Show, where the network is recovering from a huge sexual-misconduct scandal. Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon expertly helm this award-winning show, playing co-hosts Alex Levy and Bradley Jackson, who smile for the cameras but rarely see eye to eye. Follow as the drama reaches new heights in season three – and the rest of the crew, including Billy Crudup and Greta Lee, struggle to keep the peace. On Apple TV+ now
