Chad Powers
Disney+, 3 September
Glen Powell will continue cementing his Hollywood leading man status next year, with starring roles in new Judd Apatow and JJ Abrams movies; in the meantime he\u2019s back with season two of this sweet comedy about a disgraced college American football player trying to get back in the game.<\/p>\n
Vigil
BBC One & iPlayer, 30 August, 9pm
You may still think of Vigil as the sickeningly stressful Suranne Jones submarine drama, but these days the thriller takes place largely above ground; series three transports Jones\u2019s intrepid detective to an Arctic research station where a British special forces operative has been murdered.<\/p>\n
The Gentlemen
Netflix, 3 September
Guy Ritchie\u2019s other gangster streamer series (the one that hasn\u2019t been generating a slew of headline-grabbing behind-the-scenes gossip) re-enters the fray, as aristocrat Eddie (Theo James) expands his drug dealing business into Italy. Hugh Bonneville and Maya Jama join the cast for series two.<\/p>\n
Live from the Lycett Arms
Channel 4, 4 September, 10pm
Forget post-pub TV, how about actual pub TV? Channel 4\u2019s latest attempt to liven up their Friday night schedule comes courtesy of comedian Joe Lycett, who hosts this new series \u2013 part chatshow, part love letter to the great British boozer \u2013 from his own pop-up establishment in east London.

Orbitals
Nintendo Switch 2, out 3 September
Local co-op games are rare, Nintendo Switch 2 exclusives even rarer. Orbitals is both, with an art style and sci-fi story inspired by anime, and an asymmetrical approach to its puzzle-platforming reminiscent of the likes of It Takes Two. Thankfully for those of us with an original Switch, it\u2019s Gameshare compatible.<\/p>\n
The Blood of Dawnwalker
PC, PS5, Xbox Series X\/S, out 3 September
This dark fantasy RPG is set in an alternative 14th-century medieval Europe run by vampires. Player character Coen is a dawnwalker (human by day, vampire by night) whose choices affect how the story plays out as he races against time to save his family. Jordan Erica Webber<\/p>\n

Flowerovlove \u2013 Mini Skirt Warrior
Out now
After a string of EPs showcasing her love for occasionally sour bubblegum pop, London singer-songwriter Joyce Ciss\u00e9 finally releases her debut album. The country-tinged American Wedding channels Kacey Musgraves, while the bouncy In My Victoria\u2019s Secret is as sweet as candy floss.<\/p>\n
Interpol \u2013 This Mirror Weighs a Ton
Out now
Seven albums in there was a sense that the New York doom-rockers had lost their spark. There\u2019s very little evidence of that on the Andrew Wyatt-produced This Mirror Weighs a Ton, with the quintet\u2019s brand of atmospheric balladry and fizzing art-rock anthems infused with newfound energy.<\/p>\n
Erykah Badu and the Alchemist \u2013Before the World Blows: The Abi and Alan Experiment
Out now
This near-mythical collaboration between the mercurial soul icon and esteemed hip-hop producer Alan Maman has been on release schedules since spring 2025. Such procrastination, however, isn\u2019t reflected in the gently hypnotic shuffle of lead single, Witch Doctor.<\/p>\n
Alabama Shakes \u2013 I Must Be Dreaming
Out now
As their 2018 hiatus extended it was assumed the Grammy-winning US soul-rockers would stay on their own musical journeys. A one-off performance in late 2024 led to this, their eclectic third album, which takes on jazz (Garden) and heartfelt R&B excursions such as single Another Life. MC<\/p>\n

Recipe Club
Podcast
Chef Dave Chang and writer Chris Ying host this charming culinary series, which analyses the perfect ways to recreate movie foods, from Pulp Fiction\u2019s burger obsession to the ratatouille from Ratatouille.<\/p>\n
Ansel Adams: US National Archive<\/a>
Online
In 1941, photographer Ansel Adams was commissioned by the US National Park Service to create a vast mural. Although never completed, his fascinating reference images are now available to view on the National Archives webstie.<\/p>\nUntold Raygun: Breaking Badly
Netflix, 1 September
Following her chaotic breakdancing performance at the 2024 Paris Olympics, Rachael Gunn became a viral internet celebrity. This often sobering film recounts the massive fallout for Gunn and the breakdancing community who sought sporting legitimacy.
