ON DEMAND HIGHLIGHTS

-

AMAZON PRIME

NEW! Panic (All ten episodes) ★★★ Young people usually want to leave the small towns they grew up in, and Lauren Oliver’s book took that truth and turned it into a dystopian thriller. Amazon have taken that book and turned it into a slick series, in which the graduating class of Carp compete in a terrifying contest in which there is one rule – don’t panic – and a big cash prize for the victors to start a new life.

From Friday.

DRAMA The Good Fight (Seasons 1-3) ★★★★ This Good Wife spin-off becomes weirder as it goes on, and considerab­ly less like the legal drama it is at the start. Season one tackles a Bernie Madoff-style story, and the cast includes The Beast Must Die’s Cush Jumbo as the ambitious Lucca.

MOVIE Unleashed (2005) 18 s ★★★ Intriguing martial arts tale of gangsters and brawlers that stars Jet Li, Morgan Freeman and Bob Hoskins, and has a script by French auteur Luc Besson. From Monday.

NETFLIX

NEW! Lucifer (Season 5, Part B) ★★★

We left the Devil-in-LA drama on a twist: the appearance of God himself, played by 24’s Dennis Haysbert. Can the Almighty sort out the problems of Lucifer (Tom Ellis) and the other warring celestials? From Friday.

NEW! Nail Bomber: Manhunt ★★★ Documentar­y account of the improvised bombs that targeted London’s Black, Bangladesh­i and gay communitie­s in 1999. From Wednesday.

NEW! Master Of None (Season 3) ★★★ Aziz Ansari’s comedy shifts to the romance of Denise (co-writer Lena Waithe) and Alicia (Naomi Ackie) for this new season. From tomorrow.

NEW! The Kominsky Method (Season 3) ★★★★ Netflix’s sleeper hit of a comedy, starring Michael Douglas as acting coach Sandy Kominsky (above), begins its final season without Alan Arkin as Sandy’s agent. From Friday.

MOVIE Blue Miracle (2021) PG ● ★★★ Dennis Quaid stars in this heartwarmi­ng tale of a fishing contest and a threatened orphanage. From Thursday.
