What to Read Next

The Death of Bunny Munro

In this new series, Matt Smith plays Bunny Munro, a man struggling with grief and addiction after his wife’s suicide. He’s now a single father and works as a door-to-door beauty product salesman, but he has no idea how to be a good parent.

Bunny and his nine-year-old son, Bunny Junior (played by Rafael Mathé), set off on a wild and unpredictable road trip through Southern England, as described in the story’s summary.

The Death of Bunny Munro is available to watch from Thursday 20 November at 9pm on Sky Atlantic.

Broadchurch

The critically acclaimed British crime drama Broadchurch, praised by fans on IMDb, is coming to Netflix this week. We highly recommend it – we even consider it one of the greatest shows ever made.

The three-season series stars David Tennant and Olivia Colman. It begins with the discovery of an eleven-year-old boy’s body on a beautiful beach in a quiet Dorset town. Detective Inspector Alec Hardy (Tennant) arrives to lead the investigation, and is assigned to work with local Detective Sergeant Ellie Miller (Colman).

The two leads will need to work together, despite their disagreements, to investigate a recent death that has shaken the town. Jonathan Bailey, known for his roles in Wicked and Bridgerton, also appears in the show.

Broadchurch is available to watch from Tuesday 18 November on Netflix.

Man on the Inside

Ted Danson is back for a second season of the Netflix comedy Man on The Inside, reprising his role as Charles Nieuwendyk, a retired man who secretly works as an investigator. This season, his undercover work leads him to his daughter’s college, where he goes undercover as a professor.

Charles needs to investigate when a $400 million laptop is stolen from Jack Wheeler, the school’s president, and figure out which professor is behind the crime.

Man on the Inside is available to watch from Thursday 20 November on Netflix.

One Shot with Ed Sheeran: A Music Experience

I’m so excited about this new Netflix show! It’s all about Ed Sheeran, and it feels like we’re getting a really personal look into his life. The show follows him for just one afternoon in New York City as he travels around, does some performances, and even plays little, surprise concerts for people on the street. It’s like hanging out with him for the day!

Director Philip Barantini, known for filming the entire movie Adolescence in one unbroken shot, will use a similar visually engaging style for this upcoming music experience, according to Tudum.

You can start watching ‘One Shot with Ed Sheeran,’ a special music event, on Netflix beginning Friday, November 20th.

The latest issue of Living Legends is now available! You can purchase Ariana & Witches at newsstands or online for only £8.99.
