New On Netflix






Stranger Things
We’ve had a long wait for the second instalment of the Duffer Brothers sci-fi smash hit, but finally the young residents of Hawkins, Indiana are back – and just in time for Halloween. The plot for the sequel has been kept firmly under wraps, but several cryptic clues released on social media suggest that the small rural town is far from being a safe haven. Get ready to binge the whole series, and then feel totally bereft when it’s finished.

From October 27.




Joan Didion: The Centre Will Not Hold
This much-anticipated documentary of the legendary American writer, made by her nephew Griffin Dunne, has been years in the making. An absolute must-watch for fans of Didion’s work.
