HBO
I May Destroy You, Series Premiere: This fearless, frank, and provocative series explores the question of sexual consent in contemporary life and how, in our modern landscape of dating and relationships, we make the distinction between liberation and exploitation. Following triumph from a piece of writing that garnered internet acclaim, Arabella Essiuedu (writer & EP Michaela Coel) – easily distracted, non-committal, and carefree – finds herself feted as the ‘voice of her generation,’ with an agent, a book commission and a helluva lot of pressure. After being sexually assaulted in a nightclub, her life changes irreversibly, and Arabella is forced to reassess everything: her career, her friends, even her family. As Arabella struggles to come to terms with what has happened, she begins a journey of self-discovery. The half-hour series will debut on Sunday, June 7, and will be available to stream on HBO’s platforms.

Liar, Season 2 Exclusive Streaming Premiere: In a surprising start to the season, three weeks after damning evidence was uncovered proving Andrew Earlham (Ioan Gruffudd) sexually assaulted nineteen women, his body is found in the Kent marshes.

Yet the seaside community is rocked when the case quickly becomes a murder investigation. Out of town officer DI Karen Renton (Katherine Kelly) is put in charge of the case, and together with DS Rory Maxwell (Danny Webb), they begin to unpack the events of the three crucial weeks leading up to Andrew’s death.
