*Presumed Innocent* is an eight-part limited series starring Jake Gyllenhaal and Ruth Negga. From TV masterminds David E. Kelley and J.J. Abrams, it’s based on a bestselling novel of the same name by Scott Turow. The series takes viewers on a journey through a horrific murder that upends the Chicago prosecuting attorney's office when one of its own is suspected of a crime.

## THE WESTERN: The Dead Don’t Hurt

This is a story of star-crossed lovers on America’s western frontier in the 1860s. Vivienne Le Coudy (*Phantom Thread’s* Vicky Krieps) is a fiercely independent woman who embarks on a relationship with Danish immigrant Holger Olsen (Viggo Mortensen). After meeting Olsen in San Francisco, she agrees to travel with him to his home near the quiet town of Elk Flats, Nevada, where they start a life together. The outbreak of the Civil War separates them when Olsen makes a fateful decision to fight for the Union. This leaves Vivienne to fend for herself in a place controlled by corrupt mayor Rudolph Schiller (Danny Huston) and his unscrupulous business partner, powerful rancher Alfred Jeffries (Garret Dillahunt). When Olsen returns from the war, he and Vivienne must confront and make peace with the person each has become.

## THE BIG RETURN: House Of The Dragon

*Game of Thrones* spin-off series *House of The Dragon* returns mid-month after a longer-than-planned hiatus thanks to last year’s writers’ strike. Based on the book *Fire &amp; Blood* by George R. R. Martin, the series chronicles the Targaryen civil war that rocked Westeros. The series stars Emma D’Arcy, Olivia Cooke and Matt Smith, and season two will introduce more characters as the turmoil slowly unfurls – look out for some big houses like the Starks needing to respond to their leader's call.

## THE MUSIC BOOK: Travels Over Feeling By Richard King

The music of Arthur Russell defies classification. Across a 20-year career, he created a body of work which ranged from pioneering compositions as part of the New York avant-garde alongside artists including Philip Glass and Allen Ginsberg, to genre-expanding disco and art pop productions, to posthumously released folk songs. *Travels Over Feeling* is the result of extensive research by author Richard King, curating the documentation found in both Arthur’s and other private archives; it features hand-written scores, lyrics, photos, letters and drawings. King has also conducted wide-ranging original interviews with Arthur’s collaborators, contemporaries, family and friends. The resulting book reveals a true picture of one of the most distinctive artists of the last 50 years.

## THE SERIES: The Sympathizer

Based on Viet Thanh Nguyen’s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, *The Sympathizer* is a seven-part limited series that’s part espionage thriller, part cross-culture satire about the struggles of a half-French, half-Vietnamese communist spy during the final days of the Vietnam War. We meet him as he begins his new life as a refugee in Los Angeles, where he soon learns his spying days aren't over. Produced by *Old Boy*’s Park Chan-wook and Robert Downey Jr, who plays multiple roles, this is a series we can’t wait to get stuck into.

## THE COFFEE-TABLE BOOK: The Atlas Of Never Built Architecture

*The Atlas of Never Built Architecture* gathers hundreds of the most spectacular unbuilt projects of the 20th and 21st centuries into one comprehensive, geographically arranged survey. Featuring everything from initial sketches and paintings to etchings and digital renderings, the collection offers insight into how architectural projects are conceived and developed, zooming in on parliamentary buildings, museums, arts centres, skyscrapers, artificial islands and entire city plans. Futuristic visions from the likes of Frank Lloyd Wright, Louis Kahn and Le Corbusier sit alongside more contemporary proposals from talents such as Norman Foster and Zaha Hadid to show how our built environments could have looked very different indeed.

*Federer: Twelve Final Days* is a feature-length documentary chronicling the last 12 days of Roger Federer’s professional tennis career.

Featuring interviews from legendary rivals and friends Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray, *Federer: Twelve Final Days* provides an unprecedented glimpse into the relationships between these unparalleled stars.

## THE WARM-UP: Tour De France: Unchained

From the riders to the team directors, *Tour de France: Unchained* closely follows all those involved in the Tour, revealing the many challenges of a race that has become an international symbol, broadcast in 190 territories. This new season goes behind the scenes of the 21 stages of Tour de France 2023 to capture the scandals, low blows and thirst for glory; the dramatic falls and historic breakaways; the withdrawals and desire to win. As it did in the excellent first season, it also dives into the fierce battle for the yellow jersey itself. If you’re counting down the days to this year’s race, this will more than tide you over.
