After having their first child, The Fishers decide to leave behind the Big City for a quiet life in Rob’s childhood neighbourhood, Hinkley Hills.

So when strange new neighbour Gary moves into the house, the neighbourhood curtain twitchers come together to try and figure out what actually went on – and what their new neighbour’s up to.
Available from April 1st.
Rob Beckett: Giraffe (Sky One)
In this brand-new original comedy special, Rob Beckett heads to the London Palladium to mark the end of his global tour.
Giving his insight to juggling life on the road and life as a dad, Rob gives his uniquely hilarious take as he figures out what comes next.
Available from April 3rd.
The Miniature Wife (Sky Atlantic)
Elizabeth Banks and Matthew Macfadyen star as a married couple that face a HUGE issue in a tiny package in this offbeat dramedy.
Les and Lindy have a far from perfect marriage – but when a technological experiment by Les goes horribly wrong, Lindy wakes up to discover she’s shrunk to just six inches tall.
With no way to switch back, Les moves Lindy into a doll house to keep her safe, but soon the pair’s domestic life is put to the ultimate test as they find themselves going head-to-head for power and control in their relationship.
Available from April 9th.
Euphoria Season 3 (Sky Atlantic)
It’s been a long, long wait for fans but Euphoria is finally returning to our screens – and a lot has changed for the trouble-making teens we first met.
It’s been five years since the dramatic conclusion to season two, and they’re now out of high school and dealing with life as adults. Nate and Cassie are engaged to be married, but he’s less than impressed with her raunchy online business.
Meanwhile, Rue has moved to Mexico, but can’t escape the terrifying drug lord Laurie, who has not forgotten her debt.
Available from April 13th.
Hacks Season 5 (Sky Atlantic)
In the fifth and final season of this beloved comedy, Deborah and Ava are heading back to Las Vegas more determined than ever to cement Deborah’s legacy.
However, they hit a slight snag after their time in Singapore, after it was falsely announced in the news that Deborah had died.
After her unceremonious exit from her late-night talk show, the pair have a fight on their hands as network bosses are holding her to the non-compete clause she signed in her contract – meaning she can’t tell a single joke without getting sued.
Looks like they have their work cut out for them.
Available from April 24th.
Prisoner (Sky Atlantic)
In this new Sky Original thriller, Prisoner puts moral boundaries to the ultimate test as a prison transport officer and the man she’s guarding find themselves in danger.
Tasked with bringing him to court to testify against the leader of a powerful crime syndicate, the supposedly simple mission goes south when their convoy is ambushed.
Handcuffed together, the pair go on the run from the syndicate’s highly trained assassins – but when you’re tied to the country’s most wanted hitman, who can you trust?
Available April.

In this supernatural horror that earned Amy Madigan the Best Supporting Actress Oscar this year, Weapons sees a small town in Pennsylvania take centre stage when, at 2:17am one morning, 17 young children from the same third grade class disappear into the night. Only one child, Alex Lilly, remains.
With the community unsettled and desperate for answers, the search is tracked through the eyes of parents, investigators and the teacher who taught their class.
While their immediate reaction is to turn on each other, there may something even more sinister at play.
Available from April 10th.
