Coming Up



A couple of hours at your disposal? Catch up on some of these gems



Angry Boys on BBC 3:


Chris Lilley does it again. Cracking comedy.


Breaking Bad (okay, not on catch up TV, but it's too brilliant to miss out)




One Born Every Minute (C4):


Bit late on this one I'm aware but gosh it is good. A fly-on-the-wall series that really does take you on a rollercoaster of emotions as you witness a whole range of different people experience the hardships and wonders of childbirth.



Coming Up Series on C4: more fantastic short films from up-and-coming British filmmakers.


Kicked off with 'Rough Skin', directed by Cathy Brady: A beautifully crafted short written by Laura Lomas, it follows Kelly (played by one of our finest actresses, Vicky McClure) as she adjusts to life outside after a stint in prison. An understated, poignant and powerful piece.



'Home' is another stellar short film, written by D.C. Moore and directed by Baff Akoto. Johnny Harris and Lorraine Stanley are entirely believable as homeless drunks Tommy and Mary, providing an unsettling but realistic meditation on the lives of these emotionally wounded characters.

Coming Up next...'Micah' and 'Food'



Stewart Lee's Comedy Vehicle (BBC 2)
