All eight episodes of the series will premiere on March 4, 2026, exclusively on Prime Video in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide.

When a charismatic, youthfully defiant Sherlock Holmes meets none other than James Moriarty, he finds himself dragged into a murder investigation that threatens his liberty. Sherlock's first ever case unravels a globe-trotting conspiracy, leading to an explosive showdown that alters the course of his life forever.

Good Fortune: Blu Ray Review

Good Fortune: Blu Ray Review

Cast: Aziz Ansari, Keanu Reeves, Seth Rogen, Keke Palmer, Sandra Oh
Director: Aziz Ansari

Aziz Ansari's debut film meshes a look at the gig economy, unions and It's A Wonderful Life with relative simplicity and not too much depth. But that's not to say it's without its vicariouis pleasures and laugh-out-loud moments.

Though perhaps in parts, it could have used a touch more of the absurd.

Ansari plays Arj, a would-be documentarian, who goes from job to job, barely getting by - certainly never getting ahead - and living in his car in various diners. Taking part-time jobs or random assignments, he spends his days living hand-to-mouth and looking for a big break.

But in the background of his life is Gabriel, a low-ranking angel, whose role is to stop people while texting and driving and save their lives. After Gabriel does this for Arj when he loses another job, he decides to follow Arj, believing him to be a lost soul in need of saving.

Good Fortune: Movie Review

It's part altruism and also part Gabriel wanting to climb the ladder within his own angel hierarchy.

So when Arj takes an assignment to clear out opulent tech-bro Jeff's garage, he seizes on an opportunity and asks Jeff (Rogen, in relatively-dialled down mode) for a gig as his assistant. 

But given a peek into how the other half live, Gabriel decides to swap Arj and Jeff's circumstances in the hope that Arj will find something to cling to, without the need for excess. However, it doesn't quite go to plan....

Good Fortune has its moments - and while the sweetly rendered story is a little too saccharine and soft to truly dig into the economy's failings and the societal issues, it proves to be an amiable ride. It's a satire without real bite, a film of recognition, but one that wraps up everything so neatly at the end, it's almost twee.

Ansari plays an occasionally downbeat version of his Parks and Recreation character, all manic one moment and then loud the next. But he's an engaging character to latch on to and a symbol of what's wrong with the economy's hierarchy for those forced into various degrees of servitude.

Yet, Ansari does nothing major with this set-up, preferring instead to have peals of admonition and frustration from those watching growing in the background. It's a shame because while the film offers some truly hilarious off-kilter moments (including Reeves' angel bemoaning the fact he's gone from a celestial being to a chainsmoker), it never quite has the oomph to savage what it's seeing.

Rogen's understated performance speaks to the maturity he's finding as an actor, and Reeves proves to be excellent comedic fare as the Clarence the angel looking for his wings as the movie riffs on its It's A Wonderful Life-lite premise.

Keke Palmer makes the most of the scenes she appears in, but despite an empathetic performance, she's given too little to work with.

Good Fortune isn't quite as angelic as it wants, and closer inspection may leave you feeling it's not tapped into its full potential. But it has to be said, despite its triteness in places, if you happen to catch this film, you'll consider yourself more blessed by the Good Fortune of the cinema, rather than cursed by its demons.

Rivals season 2 is here

Rivals season 2 is here

Disney+ has confirmed the award-winning hit series, “Rivals” will return for its second season on 15th May with even more drama, wit and desire. The second season continues the adaptation of the late and much-missed Dame Jilly Cooper’s beloved novel, “Rivals”, introducing the glamorous world of polo and surprising new twists, alongside heightened boardroom drama and deeper romantic entanglements. The Hulu Original series will return in two six-episode batches, the first will debut on May 15 with a three-episode premiere and the second batch will follow later in the year on Disney+.

The battle for the Central South West television franchise reaches a fever pitch as the war between Corinium and Venturer enters a dangerous new phase. More ruthless than ever, Tony Baddingham is determined to dismantle his rivals piece-by-piece, weaponising scandal and manipulating those closest to him to maintain his grip on power. 

Rivals season 2 is here



Amidst the hedonistic glamour of 80s excess, the personal lives of our Rutshire heroes spiral into chaos. Marriages fracture under the weight of ambition, illicit affairs threaten to shatter families, and long-buried secrets ignite with explosive consequences. As rivalries push everyone to the brink, loyalties are tested and hearts are broken in the pursuit of victory. But what is the true cost of war?

Reprising their iconic roles are David Tennant (‘Doctor Who’, ‘The Thursday Murder Club’) as Lord Tony Baddingham, Alex Hassell (‘The Tragedy of Macbeth’, ‘The Boys’) as Rupert Campbell-Black, Aidan Turner (‘Poldark’, ‘The Hobbit Trilogy’) as Declan O’Hara, Nafessa Williams (‘Black Lightning’, ‘Whitney Houston: I Wanna Dance with Somebody’) as Cameron Cook, Bella Maclean (‘Sex Education’, ‘London Tide’) as Taggie O’Hara, Katherine Parkinson (‘Humans’, ‘Here We Go’) as Lizzie Vereker, Danny Dyer (‘EastEnders', ‘The Football Factory’) as Freddie Jones, Victoria Smurfit (‘Bloodlands’, ‘Once Upon A Time’) as Maud O’Hara, Claire Rushbrook (‘Sherwood’, ‘Ali and Ava’) as Lady Monica Baddingham, Oliver Chris (‘The Crown’, ‘Trying’) as James Vereker, Lisa McGrillis (‘Maternal’, ‘Mum’) as Valerie Jones, Emily Atack (‘The Emily Atack Show’, ‘The Inbetweeners’) as Sarah Stratton, Rufus Jones (‘W1A’, ‘Home’) as Paul Stratton, Luca Pasqualino (‘The Musketeers’, ‘Shantaram’) as Basil ‘Bas’ Baddingham, Catriona Chandler as Caitlin O'Hara (‘Wild Cherry’, ‘Pistol’), Annabel Scholey (‘The Split’) as Beattie Johnson, Gary Lamont (‘Boiling Point’, ‘Outlander’) as Charles Fairburn, Hubert Burton (‘Wolf Hall’, ‘Living’) as Gerald Middleton, Gabriel Tierney (‘Enola Holmes 2’, ‘The Winter King’) as Patrick O’Hara, Lara Peake (‘How To Have Sex’, ‘Reunion’) as Daysee Butler and Bryony Hannah (‘Talamasca’, 'Call The Midwife') as Dierdre Kilpatrick.

This season also sees the addition of new guest stars, Hayley Atwell (‘Mission Impossible’, ‘Agent Carter’) as Helen Gordon, Rupert Campbell-Black’s ex-wife and mother of his two children, and Rupert Everett (‘Napoleon’, ‘My Policeman’) as her husband Malise Gordon, Campbell Black’s former show-jumping coach and mentor. Further names joining the ensemble include Maxim Ays (‘Boarders’, ‘Sanditon’), Holly Cattle (‘Young Sherlock’, ‘Mr Loverman’), Oliver Dench (‘Hotel Portofino’,  ‘Domina’), Amanda Lawrence (‘Malory Towers, Star Wars: The Last Jedi), Bobby Lockwood (‘Wolfblood, Here We Go’), Eliot Salt (‘Slow Horses’, ‘Normal People’), and Jonny Weldon (‘One Day’, ‘Brassic’).

“Rivals”, made by Happy Prince, part of ITV Studios, is executive produced by Dominic Treadwell-Collins (‘A Very English Scandal’, ‘Holding’, ‘EastEnders’), Alexander Lamb (‘Ackley Bridge’, ‘The Bay’, ‘We Hunt Together’), Felicity Blunt, Elliot Hegarty (‘Cheaters’, ‘Ted Lasso’), Olivier Award-winning playwright Laura Wade (‘The Riot Club’), “Rivals” author Dame Jilly Cooper and for Disney+, Jonny Richards.

The series was commissioned by VP Scripted Content for Disney+ EMEA, Lee Mason.

No Other Choice: Movie Review

No Other Choice: Movie Review

Cast: Lee Byung-hun
Director: Park Chan-wook

Talk about eliminating the competition.

Oldboy director Park Chan-wook’s adaptation of novel The Axe delivers a somewhat satirical look at the world of unemployment, emasculation and the continuing rise of the machines in a tale that has a dark heart and a taut execution.

No Other Choice: Movie Review

Squid Game’s Lee Byung-hun plays Man-soo, a wealthy patriarch who’s spent 25 years working in a paper company and who’s casually tossed to the side when an American company comes in. (The first use of the No Other Choice motif that runs through this.)

Believing he will be a part of the workforce again pretty quickly, Man-soo gradually loses his way and his sense of self as he futilely plays his way through auditions and applications, before happening on a way to eliminate the competition and ensure he will be the first choice for any future roles.

There’s a comedic edge to the beginning of proceedings which will either suck you in or repel you. Perhaps it’s not dark enough, or the satire is a little too close to home for some, but Chan-Wook and Byung-hun manage to turn a potential killer into a deeply sympathetic character whose motivations are universally relatable. As he struggles to be the family provider, he fails to see what’s falling apart around him, pushing him into more extreme ideas and blackly comedic situations.

But halfway through, Chan-wook tonally shifts proceedings into thriller territory, ensuring that the movie maintains an edge as it hurtles to its conclusion.

Depressingly, this feels like a globally relatable tale – one that takes old age or time served within a business as something that’s to be cast aside and put out to pasture. So in terms of the satire, it’s not as strong as it could be, given the worldwide shift into AI and the reality that abounds.

Ultimately, this is a watchable enough piece of cinema – perhaps a little more darkness would have ensured it hit a level much like Parasite did – but Chan-wook leaves you with No Other Choice but to saddle up for the journey and its conclusion.
