DRAMA

KATY KEENE BBC IPLAYER ★★★ This colourful US drama tracks the lives of four New Yorkers striving to succeed in music, theatre and fashion. It’s a spin-off from Riverdale, which is, in turn, a dark take on the world of the Archie comics. From today.

MRS AMERICA ★★★★ BBC IPLAYER Cate Blanchett continues to impress in this polished drama about the battle for women’s rights in the 1970s US. In the most recent double bill, the conservati­ve Phyllis Schlafly (Blanchett) debates with superstar feminists Brenda and Marc Feigen Fasteau.
