The Future Diary – 14 December
Fancy a show with a bit of a twist?

The Witcher – 17 December
Fans of this fantasy series (and of Henry Cavill) will be delighted by it's return. In season two, Geralt is convinced that Yennefer was killed at the Battle of Sodden, and brings Princess Cirilla to the safest place he knows, his childhood home of Kaer Morhen. While the Continent’s kings, elves, humans and demons strive for supremacy outside its walls, he must protect the girl from something far more dangerous: the mysterious power she possesses inside.
