Misbehaviour (2020 Feature Film)

This dramatized retelling stars Keira Knightley (Atonement) and Jessie Buckley (Women Talking) as activists leading the charge, while Gugu Mbatha-Raw (The Morning Show) portrays the contestant who made history as the competition’s first Black winner.

Douglas is Cancelled (2024)
When a tweet accuses journalist Douglas Bellowes (Hugh Bonneville, Downton Abbey) of making a sexist joke at a wedding, his once-stable career and reputation unravel. As the co-host of a high-profile current affairs show alongside Madeline (Karen Gillan, Doctor Who), Douglas finds himself at the center of a public backlash.
With support from his editor Toby (Ben Miles, The Crown), wife Sheila (Alex Kingston, Doctor Who), and agent Bentley (Simon Russell Beale, Vanity Fair), he scrambles to contain the fallout.

Written by Steven Moffat (Sherlock), this drama examines the consequences of social media scrutiny and professional reputation. Two hour-long episodes premiere weekly for a total of four.

I Literally Just Told You, Seasons 1 & 2 (2021 to present)
Jimmy Carr (The Fix) hosts this new game show where contestants must rely on both general knowledge and memory to win up to £25,000. Unlike traditional quizzes, the questions are written live during filming, covering anything from celebrity cameos to off-the-cuff jokes or even personal details contestants reveal. Four players compete to bank cash before facing memory-based elimination rounds. In the final showdown, the last two standing pick questions for each other, testing who can recall the most from the show to claim the jackpot.
March 20th Premieres
Ludwig
When puzzle designer John “Ludwig” Taylor (David Mitchell, Peep Show) learns that his identical twin James has vanished without a trace, he assumes his brother’s identity to uncover what happened. A recluse with no modern technology and little experience outside his own home, John is suddenly thrown into a world far beyond his comfort zone—because James wasn’t just anyone, he was a top DCI leading Cambridge’s major crimes unit. As John navigates his brother’s world, he must use his expertise in cryptic puzzles to solve the biggest mystery of his life. Anna Maxwell Martin (Motherland, Line of Duty) stars as James’ wife, Lucy, alongside Dipo Ola, Gerran Howell, Izuka Hoyle, Dylan Hughes, and Dorothy Atkinson. Two episodes premiere, followed by one episode weekly after that (total of 6 hour-long episodes).
March 25th Premieres
Dead in the Water, Season 1 (2024)
In 1978, young British couple Chris Farmer and Peta Frampton were murdered while sailing off the coast of Guatemala, their bodies discovered bound, tortured, and weighed down with engine parts. Their last letter home mentioned traveling with an American man and his two sons, but for nearly 40 years, no one was able to find their killer. This documentary series from Raw (Don’t F**k with Cats, The Tinder Swindler) follows British journalist Penny Farmer, Chris’s sister, as she relentlessly investigates the case. With a shocking breakthrough via Facebook, she finally tracks down Silas Boston and his sons, uncovering the harrowing truth behind the murders that haunted her family for decades.
Until March…
