10 Shows to Watch on TV This Winter

Perth Now26-05-2025

Winter's closing in, which can only mean one thing: it's time to get snuggly on the couch and settle in for good old binge watch!
Good news: there are plenty of great shows on the way.
Ready, set, watch!
And just like that, we're back with the girls! Can we still call them that? Probably not, they're well into their 50s. But true to form, they're still living their best New York lives. This season begins with Carrie settled into her enormous new Brownstone, Miranda dating up a storm (Che Diaz is out of the picture), and Charlotte still knee-deep in teen life. Frothy, escapist fun.
Starring and executive produced by Owen Wilson, this series is about an over-the-hill pro golfer (Wilson) who, after the collapse of his life and his marriage, decides to hedge his bets and mentor a 17-year-old golf prodigy called Santi (Peter Dager). Described as a 'heartfelt, feel-good sports comedy', it's already getting lots of buzz. Ted Lasso 2.0?
There have been some great British crime dramas doing the rounds of late, and this one, starring Sean Bean as a cocaine smuggling gangster called Ronnie Phelan, is up there, having already generated plenty of buzz in the UK. Joining Bean are James Nelson-Joyce as Ronnie's associate and Hannah Onslow as the woman he falls for — their love story is at the centre of the story.
Based on the enormously popular book by Jane Harper, this stars The Rings Of Power's Charlie Vickers as Kieran Elliott, a man returning to his home town in Tasmania, along with his partner (Yerin Ha, who'll soon be seen as the romantic lead in the upcoming series of Bridgerton), haunted by a tragedy that changed their lives years earlier. When a woman's body is discovered on the beach, the truth of what really occurred comes to light. Emily Alyn Lind and Shubham Maheshwari star in We Were Liars. Credit: Jessie Redmond / Prime
Based on the bestselling novel by E. Lockhart, the series follows the story of wealthy teen Cadence Sinclair Eastman (Emily Alyn Lind) and her close-knit group of friends, nicknamed The Liars. Cadence, from a privileged and secretive family, returns to their private island a year after a mysterious accident changed her life — dark secrets begin to emerge. One for younger viewers.
If you've ever made a mixtape, then this one's for you! Based on the novel by Jane Sanderson, this tells the story of two teen lovers, Alison (Teresa Palmer) and Daniel (Jim Sturgess), living in Sheffield, England, in 1989 who drift apart, only to reconnect years later on the other side of the world. This has big One Day energy, and fans of that nostalgic Netflix series will want to check this out. Bay of Fires, starring Marta Dusseldorp, is back for a second season. Credit: Supplied
Season two of this Tasmanian-set dark comedy is hitting screens mid-June. It sees Marta Dusseldorp returning to reprise her role as mum-on-the-run, Stella. She's still stuck in Mystery Bay, but good news — no one has tried to kill her in recent months! But things won't stay smooth-sailing for long — you can't mess with the Russian mafia and not expect consequences.
Those that love a period drama will be pleased to see that this under-the-radar favourite is returning for a third season. The Julian Fellowes-created show follows New York's upper-crust as they navigate life in the 'Gilded Age'. Come for the fabulous frocks, stay for sensational performances from The White Lotus' Carrie Coon and Christine Baranski.
Disney is doing fans a solid favour and dropping all 10 episodes of the fourth season at the same time — winning! This season sees Carmy, Sydney and Richie determined to move forward after the disastrous run-up to the opening of their fine dining establishment. Can they overcome all that toxicity and pull together as a team? We can't wait to find out.
If you've seen the trailer for the third and final season of Squid Game, chances are you'll be bracing for the show's release — it looks scary as heck! This final series picks up from season two's devastating cliffhanger, and thrusts Gi-hun (Player 456) back into the game — he's more determined than ever to dismantle it once and for all. This one's shaping up to be big.

Police called after creepy child bride Disneyland ‘wedding'

A British man has been arrested after he allegedly attempted to stage a fake wedding to a nine-year-old girl at Disneyland Paris. The 22-year-old man was reportedly acting as the 'groom' in the bizarre ceremony, which took place on Saturday morning in front of the famous Sleeping Beauty castle, according to The Sunday Times. Following his arrest, he told police that the spectacle was intended as a video for social media. Disneyland Paris staff became suspicious and alerted authorities after noticing the bride appeared alarmingly young. The presence of her family and a large number of guests also raised concerns. It was later revealed that many of the 'wedding guests' were hired actors who had been transported to the park and given minimal information about the nature of the event. When Seine-et-Marne Police arrived on the scene, they found the child dressed in a bridal dress and wearing four-inch heels that had been taped to her feet. The 'groom' was taken into custody, along with the girl's mother, a 41-year-old Ukrainian woman. Alexandre Verney, Assistant Prosecutor for the Seine-et-Marne region, confirmed that the young girl underwent a medical examination and was found to be unharmed. Mr Verney also confirmed that two Latvian nationals, aged 24 and 55, were arrested in connection with the strange incident. According to local reports, the 55-year-old Latvian told authorities he had been paid €12,000 (AU$21,550) to play the role of the bride's father but only learned the girl's age shortly before the event. The child's mother and the 55-year-old have since been released from police custody, while the British man and 24-year-old Latvian remain detained on suspicion of financial fraud. Authorities believe that Disneyland Paris was misled about the nature of the event, with the organiser assuming the identity of a Latvian national and using fake documents to secure permission to hold a private event at the park. A video obtained by a French news outlet reportedly shows around 100 guests seated as a violin trio performed in front of a flower-adorned stage. One source who claims to have been a wedding guest told a French newspaper that everyone was 'stunned' by what had unfolded. 'We all thought we were going to attend a one expected it,' she said. 'Disneyland did things very well. They cancelled everything as soon as they realised the bride was a child. We were shocked to see that.' A criminal investigation is now underway.

Orlando Bloom joins Katy Perry in Perth with daughter Daisy despite split speculation

Orlando Bloom has joined Katy Perry on her trip to Perth for two concerts despite rumours their relationship is in trouble following an 'explosive' argument. The 48-year-old British actor was first spotted exiting the couple's jet at Perth Airport on Sunday afternoon, ahead of Perry's first show at RAC Arena that night, which got fans talking. On Friday, it was reported that Bloom blasted Perry's Blue Origin space flight in April as 'embarrassing' and 'cringeworthy' in 'the middle of a fight.' However, despite the insider's commentary hinting at possible relationship woes, The Lord of the Rings star has accompanied the superstar on her Lifetimes tour to Perth. On Monday, he was spotted taking in the sights of Perth's CBD with his daughter Daisy sitting on top of his shoulders. Bloom attempted to blend in with citygoers by wearing a casual black shirt and cap. His four-year-old daughter, who celebrates her birthday in two months, looked adorable in a cute outfit with her short blonde hair left loose. She hung on tightly to her father with one hand while the other gripped a red and blue balloon animal. Little Daisy has been lucky to explore parts of Australia recently, with the youngster travelling to Kangaroo Island in South Australia for Perry's Adelaide shows. Bloom and Perry have been together since 2016, briefly splitting up the following year before getting engaged in 2019. News broke earlier this month that their was 'tension' in the pair's relationship, with People reporting that Perry's 'devastating' album flop caused 'stress.' Perry took to the stage at RAC Arena on Sunday night as thousands of loyal 'KatyCats' assembled in anticipation of their pop idol. The spectacle included an array of classic and new hits with Perry going all out by riding a gargantuan mechanical butterfly across the arena and was propelled through the air on aerial lines.
