Pierre<\/p>\n

Described as “gripping” by Channel 4, Pierre follows David Harewood’s titular “force of nature” solicitor who is balancing the pressures of his job, his personal life and keeping his head above water financially. <\/p>\n

However, Pierre’s “resilience is tested when he begins investigating the suspicious death of a young black client, Michael”. He challenges the police’s portrayal of Michael, in the process uncovering a “chilling web” of institutional corruption.<\/p>\n

Alongside Harewood, the series features Michele Austin, Jason Flemyng, Dean-Charles Chapman, Nikkita Chadha and Christopher Fairbank, and has been written by Roy Williams OBE and John Donnelly.<\/p>\n

Pierre is available from Monday, 5 October on Channel 4.<\/p>\n

Carrie<\/p>\n

Prime Video premieres the latest version of Stephen King’s classic tale Carrie this week, which is touted as a “bold, timely, and surprising reinvention” of the story. Set in the present day, we meet the titular Carrie White (Summer Howell) who must deal with her overbearing mother after her father’s death.<\/p>\n

Carrie is then plunged into the “unforgiving ecosystem of public high school”, where she is “forced to navigate a viral bullying scandal that tears through her community, the relentless pressure and casual cruelty of the social\u2011media age, and the awakening of mysterious telekinetic powers that rise alongside her adolescence”.<\/p>\n

The new Carrie comes from The Haunting of Hill House and Midnight Mass’ Mike Flanagan, who has previously worked on King adaptations such as Doctor Sleep and The Life of Chuck.<\/p>\n

Carrie is available from Wednesday, 7 October on Prime Video<\/a>.<\/p>\n
