Congratulations – we made it to the weekend. If you're planning some well-deserved relaxation time and are in need of something new to watch, look no further, as we have another batch of fresh recommendations for you, from animation to political intrigue. First up, if you're in the mood for a binge-watch, all episodes of Bridgerton prequel Queen Charlotte are now on Netflix, while the whole of the second season of anthology series Star Wars: Visions is out on Disney Plus.

If you prefer a weekly episode drop, there's plenty to choose from, too. Dystopian sci-fi series Silo is now streaming weekly on Apple TV Plus, while political satire White House Plumbers has begun on HBO Max and historical drama A Little Light has kicked off on Hulu and Disney Plus.

As for movies, UK viewers can choose between new rom-com Rye Lane on Disney Plus (for those in the US, it's already on Hulu on your side of the pond) and slasher-comedy Freaky on Netflix.

The prequel series revolves around the titular monarch's rise to power and involves two timelines: one, in 1817, in which the character is played by Bridgerton actor Golda Rosheuvel and pressuring her children to produce an heir, and another, 50 years earlier, in which she's played by India Amarteifio and meeting her future husband King George. The cast also includes Adjoah Andoh and Michelle Fairley.
