Your Fault: London

Stream it from Wednesday 17 June in Apps > Prime Video

But real life soon intrudes: Noah heads for Oxford to study while Nick’s work begins to make serious demands on him, and the first cracks start to appear. When new people enter their lives, unexpected emotions are stirred up, and Noah and Nick must decide if their love is worth fighting for.

The Sheep Detectives

But when a real murder sends shockwaves through their rural community, the sharp-witted sheep realise they’re the only ones who can solve it. If you mixed the classic film Babe with cosy crime you’d get this charming movie, which features the voices of Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Patrick Stewart and Bryan Cranston as well as Emma Thompson, Nicholas Galitzine and Nicholas Braun in human form and a script by Craig Mazin (Chernobyl, The Last Of Us).

Fascinating stuff to mark the 250th anniversary of US independence.

The Beautiful Game

Stream The Beautiful Game on Channel 4 this month.

Stream it from Sunday 7 June in Apps > Channel 4

With that big football tournament around the corner, where money and greed are on display as much as the on-field talent, this might be a much-needed way to remind yourself about the true power of sport. Bill Nighy (Love Actually) plays Mal, the coach of Englands homeless football team, as they travel to Rome for the Homeless World Cup. At the last minute, he drafts in Vinny (Micheal Ward, Small Axe), a talented but troubled striker who hasnt yet figured out how to put his past behind him. Bring tissues.

All Of Us Strangers

Stream it from Monday 8 June in Apps > Channel 4

Andrew Scott (Fleabag) is Adam, a lonely screenwriter who begins a tender relationship with his downstairs neighbour, Harry (Paul Mescal, Aftersun), while also finding a mysterious and heartbreaking way to revisit the parents he lost as a child. Written and directed by Andrew Haigh (45 Years), All Of Us Strangers is a stunning film about what it feels like to finally, terrifyingly, let someone love you. A shout-out to cinematographer Jamie Ramsay, too, because the way this is shot is something beyond.

Empire Of Light

Stream it from Saturday 20 June in Apps > Channel 4

Sam Mendes (1917) wrote and directed this beaut of a film set in a faded coastal cinema in early 1980s England, all anchored by Olivia Colman (The Favourite) in yet another performance that reminds you she is simply one of the finest actors/people alive. As Hilary, the cinema’s manager, she struggles quietly with her mental health and forms an unlikely and tender connection with Stephen (The Beautiful Game’s Micheal Ward again), a young employee navigating the casual racism of Thatcher-era Britain.

This isn't your usual celeb-fronted travelogue – Porowski goes deeper to find the places in these cities that don’t make it onto the usual itineraries or TikTok “hidden gems” videos. Genuinely useful if you’re heading away this summer.

Twenty years later, Rinder revisits the case, reflects on his own role in the proceedings and meets Lucy’s family to hear how they’ve lived with the outcome.

The Running Man

Stream The Running Man on Paramount+ this month.

Stream it from Thursday 25 June on Paramount+

The leading-man charisma of Glen Powell (Twisters, Anyone But You) and the high-energy directorial style of Edgar Wright (Baby Driver, Hot Fuzz) make a winning combination in this new adaptation of Stephen Kings bestselling novel. Powell is Ben, a father whose last chance to cure his sick daughter is to enter the dystopian TV show The Running Man, where contestants attempt to survive for a cash prize while being pursued by assassins.
