by

If you’re looking for a new show to watch this weekend, check out the Italian series Stranded. It’s about a group of people stuck at a fancy mountain resort after a disaster, and as they try to survive, hidden secrets start to be revealed.

All eight episodes of the thrilling series premiered in 2023 and are now available to stream on Channel 4 through Walter Presents.

In the film Stranded, a Christmas Eve ski trip turns dangerous when an avalanche hits a resort and nearby village. Giovanni, a wealthy financial broker with connections to a criminal group, finds himself trapped with his children.

What to Read Next

Okay, so I’m playing as Giovanni, and I just spotted someone who knows about my shady history. It’s like my two lives are about to collide, and honestly, it feels like it’s all down to luck who’s going to survive this. Things are about to get real!

The show features Alessandro Preziosi, Eugenio Franceschini, Giulia Patrignani, Rike Schmid, Marco Rossetti, Aurora Ruffino, and Federico Russo. It was created by Valerio D’Annunzio.

The Guardian gave Stranded a three-star rating, describing it as a blend of Agatha Christie, Lost, and The White Lotus.

While other European dramas are more complex and we’ve seen foreign crime shows with more compelling mysteries, this Italian story offers a pleasant break from typical Christmas dramas.

If you enjoy European thrillers, Channel 4 recently added the Belgian series For Better or Worse to its lineup.

The show centers around Agathe, whose life spirals into fear and uncertainty when her husband, Fred, becomes connected to a murder investigation. The story hints at hidden secrets, questioning just how troubled Fred really is.

Similar to Stranded, For Better or Worse first became available in 2023, with all six episodes released on Walter Presents.

Stranded is streaming now on Channel 4.

Enjoy the holidays with the Good Housekeeping Christmas TV Guide! It’s packed with 14 days of listings to help you plan your festive viewing, and it’s available now for just £4.75 at Morrisons, TG Jones, and other magazine retailers.
