Citadel\"lesley<\/p>\n

Prime Video<\/p>\n

This Prime Video has been called better than Slow Horses<\/a> and if you\u2019re yet to tune in (and you don\u2019t have Prime), you can now catch up on series one now on ITV. Richard Madden and Priyanka Jonas are the two spies at the centre of the action, both of whom had their memories wiped when their agency, Citadel, was destroyed by powerful criminal syndicate Manticore. But our favourite performance comes from Lesley Manville who plays the manipulative Dahlia Archer, the UK Ambassador to the US, who\u2019s also a Manticore agent. Devilishly good. Citadel is available to watch now on ITVX<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Wimbledon \"tx<\/p>\n

BBC<\/p>\n

Strawberries and cream at the ready for Wimbledon\u2019s very welcome return. Every match from all 18 courts will be available to watch live on BBC iPlayer, and there will also be daily coverage on BBC One and BBC Two. Italy\u2019s Jannik Sinner is the favourite to win the men\u2019s singles, while Aryna Sabalenka and Iga Swiatek are tipped to go head-to-head in the women\u2019s. But we all know how quickly the odds can change\u2026 Starts on BBC One and BBC Two on Monday 29th June.<\/p>\n

Elle\"elle<\/p>\n

Jessica Brooks<\/p>\n

Legally Blonde is turning 25, which means we\u2019re being treated to a prequel series. Original star Reese Witherspoon is at the helm, because who else could tell the story of Elle Woods\u2019 (now played by newcomer Lexi Minetree) high-school years better than Elle herself? Reese has said she got the idea for it after watching Netflix\u2019s Wednesday \u2013 so there\u2019s every chance we might see some similarities. Arriving on Prime Video<\/a> on Wednesday 1st July. <\/p>\n

Enola Holmes 3\"enola<\/p>\n

John Wilson<\/p>\n

The popular TV film franchise, which follows the exploits of Sherlock Holmes\u2019 (Henry Cavill) younger sister, Enola Holmes (Millie Bobby Brown), is back. The latest instalment sees the young detective tackle another mystery, this time on the island nation of Malta. As Enola heads to the altar to marry Lord Tewkesbury (Louis Partridge), she learns the distressing news that Sherlock (Henry Cavill) has been kidnapped. Perfect family viewing. Arriving on Netflix<\/a> on Wednesday 1st July. <\/p>\n

Silo\"silo\"<\/p>\n

Rekha Garton<\/p>\n

You can find out in Silo, which is set in a dystopian world where a community of 10,000 people is now living in such circumstances after the \u201cnormal\u201d world is destroyed.

The series will also reveal a fascinating origin story set centuries earlier. Arriving on Apple TV<\/a> on Friday 3rd July.<\/p>\n

Dark Winds\"deanna<\/p>\n

Michael Moriatis\/AMC<\/p>\n

A remote, atmospheric settling, two hardened police officers and a series of perplexing crimes \u2013 no, we\u2019re not talking about Shetland, but Dark Winds. The series takes us back to the 1970s on a remote outpost of the Navajo Nation near Monument Valley where Lieutenant Joe Leaphorn (Zahn McClarnon) of the Tribal Police and Deputy Jim Chee (Kiowa Gordon) are besieged by a series of crimes. Series 4, which is about to land on Netflix, finds them on the search for a missing Navajo girl \u2013 a case that takes them to gritty terrain of Los Angeles. Like a US-set Shetland but darker. Series 4 is arriving on Netflix<\/a> on Saturday 4th July.<\/p>\n
