Something for all tastes this episode from science fiction comedy to British drama, a cross-European road trip and an all-star comedy tribute.

• Bergerac, (iview, 6 episodes)

A reboot of the classic British 1980s drama this time with Damien Moloney in the lead role of Jersey detective Jim Bergerac. He gets great support from Zoe Wanamaker as his mother-in-law which is one of the series highpoints.

• Murderbot (AppleTV+, 10 episodes)

Alexander Skarsgård stars in this sci-fi thriller/comedy about a self-hacking security construct (robot) who is horrified by human emotion yet drawn to its vulnerable clients. All it really wants is to be left alone to watch futuristic soap operas and figure out a place in the universe. A familiar dilemma many of us face.

• The Serial Killer’s Wife (Paramount+, 4 episodes)

Beth (Annabel Scholey) is shocked when her husband Tom (Jack Farthing), a village doctor, is arrested on suspicion of being a serial killer. His wife investigates with his best friend and more evidence emerges, forcing her to question if she really knows the man she married.

• Long Way Home (AppleTV+, 10 episodes)

The fourth instalment of a motorbike ride by best friends Ewan McGregor and Charley Boorman sees them travel on refurbished vintage motorbikes from Ewan’s home in Scotland to Charley’s in England — but rather than take the shortest route, they go the long way around Scandinavia visiting a total of 17 countries.
