With Pierpoint still reeling from past power shifts, the new episodes find old loyalties tested and new alliances forged \u2013 often at a steep personal cost. Yasmin is navigating life, love and status alongside tech founder Sir Henry Muck, while Harper finds herself pulled into the orbit of the enigmatic and formidable Whitney Halberstram. As both women chase influence in an environment that rewards ambition and punishes vulnerability, their already fractured friendship begins to buckle under the pressure of money, power and the relentless need to win. Myha\u2019la and Marisa Abela return at the centre of the drama, joined once again by Kit Harington, Ken Leung and Sagar Radia. The cast is bolstered by a slate of buzzy new additions including Kiernan Shipka, Charlie Heaton, Toheeb Jimoh and Max Minghella.<\/p>\n<p>Visit\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/iplayer\/episodes\/m000pb89\/industry\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow noreferrer\">BBC.CO.UK<\/a><\/p>\n<p>          Tell Me Lies, Disney+<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Tell Me Lies returns for a third season, picking up with Lucy Albright (Grace Van Patten) and her spectacularly toxic on-off relationship with Stephen DeMarco (Jackson White), the older college boyfriend she really should have left in the past. This time, they\u2019re trying again \u2013 armed with good intentions and absolutely no evidence it will end well. Glossy, messy and compulsively watchable, it\u2019s proof that some red flags are impossible to ignore.<\/p>\n<p>Visit\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.disneyplus.com\/en-gb\/browse\/entity-bad099c4-b88d-486a-8e83-b6a5cb1fa6d3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">DISNEYPLUS.COM<\/a><\/p>\n<p>          Hijack, Apple TV<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Lightning has officially struck twice for Sam Nelson. After the success of its first outing,\u00a0Hijack returns with Idris Elba as the corporate (and still deeply unlucky) negotiator once again caught in the wrong place at the wrong time. This season swaps planes for Berlin\u2019s subway system, where a routine journey spirals into another high-stakes crisis. Expect tight pacing, sharp twists and a growing sense that absolutely no one can be trusted.<\/p>\n<p>Visit\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/tv.apple.com\/gb\/show\/hijack\/umc.cmc.1dg08zn0g3zx52hs8npoj5qe3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">TV.APPLE.COM<\/a><\/p>\n<p>          Pole To Pole With Will Smith, Disney+<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">In search of perspective \u2013 and some extreme scenery \u2013 Will Smith takes on the world. This seven-part travel series sees him hopping across every continent, chasing life lessons at the planet\u2019s most remote edges. In practice, that means epic landscapes, adrenaline-fuelled stunts and the occasional brush with something that can definitely kill you (giant anacondas included).\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Visit\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.disneyplus.com\/en-gb\/browse\/entity-e61a5c06-2908-4a10-ade8-48e53a07690b\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">DISNEYPLUS.COM<\/a><\/p>\n<p>          Agatha Christie\u2019s Seven Dials, Netflix\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Seven Dials is a punchy new three-part adaptation of\u00a0The Seven Dials Mystery, written by Chris Chibnall (Broadchurch), which delivers classic country-house drama sharpened for modern bingeing. Set in England in 1925, it naturally has all the ingredients of a vintage whodunnit: a glittering weekend party, a practical joke gone disastrously wrong and a body that shouldn\u2019t be there. At the centre of the chaos is Lady Eileen \u201cBundle\u201d Brent, played with sparkle by BAFTA Rising Star Mia McKenna-Bruce (How to Have Sex), an amateur sleuth with a knack for asking exactly the wrong questions at exactly the right time. She is joined by Helena Bonham Carter (The Crown) as the gloriously formidable Lady Caterham, Martin Freeman (Sherlock) as the inscrutable Battle, alongside Corey Mylchreest (Queen Charlotte), Ed Bluemel (Sex Education) and Nabhaan Rizwan (KAOS).<\/p>\n<p>Visit\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.netflix.com\/gb\/title\/81314952\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">NETFLIX.COM<\/a><\/p>\n<p>          28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, cinemas nationwide<\/p>\n<p>After a long wait between\u00a028 Days Later and\u00a028 Weeks Later, the continuation of the franchise is suddenly coming thick and fast. Directed by Nia DaCosta (Candyman, The Marvels),\u00a0The Bone Temple expands the brutal world created by Danny Boyle and Alex Garland \u2013 but pointedly turns it on its head. Ralph Fiennes (The Grand Budapest Hotel, Harry Potter) stars as Dr. Kelson, whose shocking new relationship could change the fate of what\u2019s left of civilisation, while Alfie Williams\u2019 (His Dark Materials) Spike becomes trapped in a living nightmare after crossing paths with the terrifying Jimmy Crystal, played by Jack O\u2019Connell (Skins, Unbroken). In this chilling new chapter, the infected are no longer the greatest threat \u2013 instead, it\u2019s the inhumanity of the survivors that proves most disturbing.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.picturehouses.com\/movie-details\/000\/HO00017385\/28-years-later-the-bone-temple\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">PICTUREHOUSES.COM<\/a><\/p>\n<p>          Rental Family, cinemas nationwide<\/p>\n<p>Set against the neon-lit backdrop of modern Tokyo,\u00a0Rental Family is a quietly affecting drama about loneliness, identity and chosen connection. Comeback king Brendan Fraser (The Whale, The Mummy) stars as a washed-up American actor who stumbles upon an unexpected lifeline: a job at a Japanese \u201crental family\u201d agency, where he\u2019s paid to play husbands, fathers and long-lost relatives for strangers in need. What begins as performance slowly turns personal, as real emotions seep into his carefully scripted roles. As the boundaries between acting and authenticity blur, Fraser\u2019s character is forced to confront the ethical grey areas of his work \u2013 and, in the process, discovers a renewed sense of purpose, belonging and the understated beauty of human connection.<\/p>\n<p>Visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.picturehouses.com\/movie-details\/000\/HO00017099\/rental-family?filter=\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">PICTUREHOUSES.COM<\/a><\/p>\n<p>          A Knight Of The Seven Kingdoms, HBO<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The\u00a0Game of Thrones universe expands once again \u2013 but this time, on a smaller, more human scale.\u00a0A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms travels back nearly a century before\u00a0Thrones, to a Westeros still ruled by the Targaryens. The story follows hedge knight Ser Duncan the Tall \u2013 Dunk \u2013 played by Peter Claffey (Bad Sisters, Wreck) and his sharp-witted young squire Egg, portrayed by Dexter Sol Ansell (The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds &amp; Snakes). Adapted from George R.R. Martin\u2019s much-loved\u00a0Dunk &amp; Egg novellas, the series opens at the Ashford Meadow tournament, where jousts, rivalries and political undercurrents simmer beneath the surface. More intimate than its dragon-heavy predecessors but no less rich in intrigue, this is a grounded, character-driven take on Westeros \u2013 and with a second season already confirmed, it\u2019s just getting started.<\/p>\n<p>Visit\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hbo.com\/content\/a-knight-of-the-seven-kingdoms\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">HBO.COM<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Industry, BBC Industry is heading into its fourth season.
