BBC<\/i> <\/span>\n<\/div>\nThe first Sally Rooney adaptation to air on the BBC, Normal People, became one of the biggest TV hits of 2020, and so expectations are sky high for this TV version of the Irish novelist\u2019s debut Conversations with Friends<\/a>.

2021 Heyday Productions, LLC and Universal Television LLC<\/i> <\/span>\n<\/div>\nThe latest lavish period drama from Downton Abbey scribe Julian Fellowes, The Gilded Age<\/a> focuses on the boom years of the 1880s in New York City and the conflicts between two wealthy families, in a tale of old versus new money.

BBC<\/i> <\/span>\n<\/div>\nFew announcements in the world of TV in 2021 were greeted with as much excitement as the news that Sally Wainwright\u2019s superb drama series Happy Valley<\/a> would finally be returning for a third run \u2013 more than five years after the second season. According to a synopsis, the season will follow a murder mystery that leads Sergeant Catherine Cawood (Sarah Lancashire) back to her old adversary, Tommy Lee Royce (James Norton) while there are new developments in her relationship with her grandson Ryan \u2013 who is now 16-years-old.<\/p>\n

Netflix<\/i> <\/span>\n<\/div>\nAt one point in time, season five was set to be the final season of The Crown<\/a> \u2013 but that\u2019s no longer the case, with the hit royal drama having been renewed for a sixth run. Still, this will mark the beginning of the end as the cast completely changes for the third time in the show\u2019s run \u2013 with Imelda Staunton taking over from Olivia Colman as Queen Elizabeth II \u2013 focusing on the events that transpired during the early \u201990s.<\/p>\n

Based on former junior doctor Adam Kay\u2019s bestselling memoir of the same name, This Is Going to Hurt<\/a> stars Ben Whishaw as a version of Adam as he deals with the highs, lows and gruelling 97-hour weeks that come with being a junior doctor. Harriet Walter and Alex Jennings are among the supporting cast, while the series also shows the effect that the tough job has on Adam\u2019s home life.<\/p>\n

BBC<\/i> <\/span>\n<\/div>\n
A new Steven Moffat series would be exciting regardless of the cast, but the fact that the former Doctor Who showrunner is teaming up with David Tennant for his new show is particular cause for celebrations. The series \u2013 which also stars Lydia West, Stanley Tucci, and Dolly Wells \u2013 apparently follows a prisoner on death row in the US, a Vicar in a quiet English town, and a maths teacher trapped in a cellar, as they cross paths in the most unexpected way. Sounds intriguing\u2026<\/p>\n

Getty<\/i> <\/span>\n<\/div>\nAs ever, 2022 looks to be a busy year for David Tennant, and as well as starring in season 2 of Good Omens and the aforementioned Inside Man, he takes on the role of former KGB officer Alexander Litvinenko in this ITV true-crime drama from Lupin<\/a>\u2018s George Kay. Litvinenko<\/a> will follow Scotland Yard Officers as they spend 10 years trying to prove who was responsible for the title character\u2019s death.<\/p>\n

The season will pick up following events of the first run \u2013 which saw married actress Suzie Pickles deal with unwanted media attention after her phone is hacked and a compromising image is leaked online.<\/p>\n

Getty<\/i> <\/span>\n<\/div>\nDoctor Who alumni Peter Capaldi and Steven Moffat will reunite for The Devil\u2019s Hour<\/a>, an intriguing new series for Amazon on which the latter serves as an executive producer. Described as a \u201cmind-bending thriller\u201d, the six-part series follows a woman called Lucy, played by Jessica Raine, who wakes up with terrifying visions every night at exactly 3:33am \u2013 in the middle of the so-called Devil\u2019s Hour.<\/p>\n

HBO<\/i> <\/span>\n<\/div>\nThree years after Game of Thrones ended in now notoriously divisive fashion, we\u2019re heading back to Westeros for this new series, the first of many mooted spin-offs based on George RR Martin\u2019s world. House of the Dragon<\/a> tells the story of the Targaryen civil war which took place 300 years before the original series \u2013 with the impressive cast including Matt Smith, Olivia Cooke, and Emma D\u2019Arcy.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s been a long time coming, but the highly-anticipated \u2013 and stunningly expensive \u2013 TV series of Lord of the Rings<\/a> is finally arriving on Amazon this year. The series will not be telling the same story as the iconic Peter Jackson films from the early \u201900s, but rather will delve into an earlier period in JRR Tolkien\u2019s monumentally large universe \u2013 with the cast including the likes of Morfydd Clark, Robert Aramayo and Joseph Mawle.<\/p>\n

The first two seasons of the BBC\u2019s adaptation of Philip Pullman\u2019s beloved His Dark Materials<\/a> trilogy have more than lived up to the terrific source material, and so hopes are high that this final season will prove just as successful. Based on The Amber Spyglass, the final novel in the trilogy, the season sees Lyra and Will\u2019s journey go to magical and unpredictable places as they aim to finally work out the secrets of Dust.<\/p>\n

Sky<\/i> <\/span>\n<\/div>\nGareth Evans\u2019 gangster series Gangs of London<\/a> was a huge hit when it arrived on Sky in 2020, and now two years later it\u2019s back for a second run. The original season left on a major cliffhanger, with the fate of lead character Sean (Joe Cole) left unclear, so it will be very intriguing to see if he makes it into the second run alive.<\/p>\n

Netflix<\/i> <\/span>\n<\/div>\nFew shows that have debuted in the past couple of years have made as much of a splash as Bridgerton<\/a>, the romantic period drama romp based on Julia Quinn\u2019s bestselling novels. This time around, the drama will focus on the romance between Anthony Bridgerton (Jonathan Bailey) and his potential bride Kate Sharma (Simone Ashley) \u2013 with breakout star Reg\u00e9-Jean Page absent from the cast list.<\/p>\n

ITV<\/i> <\/span>\n<\/div>\nWhen you see Jed Mercurio\u2019s name attached to a crime drama, that\u2019s normally a sign that it\u2019s going to be worth watching \u2013 and the Line of Duty creator is producing this new ITV series, starring Vicky McClure as an ex-military bomb disposal operative. Trigger Point<\/a> also stars Adrian Lester and has been described as \u201cnail-biting\u201d \u2013 promising to give viewers a real insight into counter-terrorism policing.<\/p>\n

SEAC<\/i> <\/span>\n<\/div>\nThere have been a few Star Wars series released on Disney Plus in recent years, but none have been quite as exciting as this one \u2013 which sees Hayden Christensen and Ewan McGregor reprise their roles from the prequel films after almost two decades. Obi-Wan Kenobi<\/a> will follow the title character and Anakin Skywalker 10 years after the events of 2005\u2019s Revenge of the Sith, with producer Kathleen Kennedy promising \u201cthe rematch of the century\u201d.<\/p>\n

2021 gave us four brand new live-action MCU series on Disney Plus, and they just keep on coming this year \u2013 with another four new shows set to arrive throughout 2022. The pick of the bunch so far seems to be She-Hulk<\/a>, which finds Orphan Black favourite Tatiana Maslany starring as Jennifer Walters, whose ordinary life as an accomplished lawyer is turned upside down when she gets an emergency blood transfusion from Bruce Banner.<\/p>\n

Video game adaptations for both the small screen and the big screen haven\u2019t always had the best reviews, but this new series looks set to be an exception. Boasting an impressive cast including Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey and some great talent behind the camera such as Chernobyl writer Craig Mazin and acclaimed Russian director Kantemir Balagov, everything seems aligned for this adaptation of the post-apocalyptic zombie game to be a mega-hit.<\/p>\n
Coming later in 2022<\/strong><\/p>\n
Other shows returning for their latest seasons include Good Omens, The Last Kingdom, McMafia, The Capture, World on Fire, Industry, Euphoria, Killing Eve and Sex Education.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n
