From the director of Population 11 and No Activity, Sunny Nights follows straight-laced Martin (Will Forte), who teams up with his loose cannon sister, Vicki (D’Arcy Carden), to set up a spray tan business, Tansform, in Sydney. Home to one of the highest skin cancer rates in the world, Australia is also home to Martin’s estranged wife, whom he’s determined to win back. But as Martin and Vicki attempt to turn their company from a start-up operating out of the back of a van into a multi-million-dollar empire, the siblings become tangled up in Sydney’s criminal underworld, and when a ruthless gangster begins to catch up with them, the two must figure out how to stay alive, out of prison, and in the black.

After almost two years, the trial of Erin Patterson takes over the former coal town of Morwell, Victoria. With a mountain of evidence withheld from the jury, two stories unfurl – what the jury knows, and what is kept hidden from them.
Led by The Age journalists John Silvester, Marta Pascual Juanola and Erin Pearson, uncover the full story as Revealed – Death Cap Murders takes viewers beyond the courtroom. Featuring interviews with key witnesses from the trial, court reporters, data specialists, biologists, the medical professionals who treated Erin’s victims and former Facebook friends of Erin, Revealed – Death Cap Murders is the definitive look at the trial that stopped the nation.
Part two tracks Erin’s substantive efforts to conceal the truth, the explosive allegations surrounding her attempted poisoning of ex-husband Simon Patterson, her incriminating conduct in the days following the lunch and her continued lack of empathy for her victims.
In part three, in a shocking turn, Erin Patterson takes the stand and brings doubt to every element of the prosecution’s case. A ferociously capable witness, she withstands an onslaught of questioning over eight gruelling days – but does the jury believe her?

New Series
Double Episode Premiere | New Episodes Every Friday
Spartacus: House of Ashur is a thrilling, erotic, history-bending, roller-coaster experience that builds on everything that made the original series a colossal hit. What if Ashur lived, and the Romans rewarded his treachery with the gladiator school where he once bled?
Welcome to the House of Ashur. No longer a slave, Ashur has clawed his way to power, owning the same ludus that once owned him. But ruling a band of merciless gladiators is child’s play compared to surviving the savage world of Roman politics — a cutthroat game in which betrayal isn’t a sin, it’s currency. He flips tradition on its head by unleashing Achillia, a fierce and powerful gladiatrix eager to prove herself worthy in a man’s world. Together, they ignite a new kind of spectacle that shocks, disrupts, and offends the elite with every drop of blood.
The series stars Nick E. Tarabay (Spartacus), who reprises his role as Ashur, Graham McTavish (House of the Dragon) as Korris, Tenika Davis (Jupiter’s Legacy) as Achillia, New Zealand’s Jordi Webber (Prosper) as Tarchon and Australia’s Jamaica Vaughan (Home and Away) as Hilara, along with an extended cast of gladiators, nobility, villains, champions and backstabbers all eager to get ahead in the cutthroat world of Ancient Rome.

Directed by Ian Fitzgibbon (Hullraisers, Moone Boy) and Inspired by Marian Keyes’ best-selling novels, The Walsh Sisters follows the lives of Anna, Rachel, Maggie, Claire and Helen in their Dublin home town as they navigate the peaks and troughs of their late 20s and 30s. This is a sisterhood full of in-jokes, hand-me-down resentments and more than a few old wounds. But their DNA, history and shared love of power ballads keep the Walsh sisters together in the face of heartbreak, grief, addiction and parenthood.
