<p>Michael Fassbender, Jeffrey White, Jodie Turner-Smith, Hugh Bonneville, Dominic West&nbsp;<em>and</em>&nbsp;Richard Gere star in slick, espionage thriller,&nbsp;<strong><em>The Agency.</em></strong>&nbsp;A star-studded remake of the French drama,&nbsp;<em>Le Bureau Des Legendes</em>, which explores what happens when a CIA operative (Fassbender)&nbsp;<em>deeeep</em>&nbsp;undercover has to abandon the fake life he has built for himself, including the woman he loves. It’s high stakes stuff, utterly compulsive viewing with a cracking cast to boot!</p>

<p>Bob Geldof and Midge Ure have been ringing the Band Aid bell for an unbelievable 40 years! This nostalgic doc, presented by Zoe Ball, unearths 75 minutes of never-before-seen footage from that special day in music history when the likes of Sting, Bono, George Michael and Paul McCartney gathered to record the festive, charity banger.</p>

<p>Kathy Bates is repping the old gals in this quirky, comedy drama, loosely based on the Eighties classic crime procedural,<strong><em>&nbsp;Matlock.</em></strong>&nbsp;Calling it her swan song role, Bates plays Madeline ‘Matty’ Matlock, a whip-smart lawyer forced to rejoin the workforce in her seventies. Much like Andy Griffith’s character in the original, Matty is often ignored and underestimated – this time for being an older woman – which, of course, she uses to her full advantage. If you love a legal drama this is for you, for everyone else, watch for Bates who is as usual tip top.</p>

<p>Lindsay Lohan seems to have found her calling in the world of Hallmark Christmas movies as she is back with (jingle) bells on in what will be her third for Netflix. In&nbsp;<strong><em>Our Little Secret</em></strong>, she is reunited with an ex-boyfriend (Ian Harding) over the holidays after discovering their current partners are siblings. Awkward indeed! Kristin Chenoweth also stars as the delightfully devilish mother-in-law in this amusing festive romp.</p>

<p>Colman Domingo continues his streak of pitch perfect roles in&nbsp;<strong><em>The Madness</em></strong>, a rather sinister but unbelievably gripping thriller. He plays Muncie Daniels, a progressive, outspoken, black media personality, who finds himself at the centre of a murder investigation after stumbling upon a dismembered body in the woods. Eek. Throw in some conspiracy theories, a corrupt police force and a white supremacist group and things start to spiral dangerously out of hand. Timely and terrifying but important viewing.</p>

<p>Where’s the&nbsp;<em>Drag Race</em>&nbsp;fans at? Phil Dunning aka Joan Diamonds has landed his own sitcom and it is loud, proud and wonderfully daft in equal measures.&nbsp;<strong><em>Smoggie Queens</em></strong>&nbsp;will plunge you into Middlesborough’s small, mighty and hilariously catty drag scene. Celebrating the family we choose, it follows a group of friends as they navigate love, loss, life and wigs. Sweet, surreal and chock-a-block with sequins and silly slapstick.</p>

Featuring never-before-seen footage of the band and their legions of young fans,&nbsp;<strong><em>Beatles ’64</em></strong>&nbsp;gives a rare glimpse into the pivotal moment in music history when four lads from Liverpool became the most influential and beloved band of all time.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Before&nbsp;<em>Drive to Survive&nbsp;</em>reminded us to give a hoot about Formula One racing, there was Ayrton Senna. This gripping new drama starring Gabriel Leone as the main man, tracks his life in the fast lane. From his first races and ascent to the top to his fierce rivalry and untimely death in 1994. Steven Mackintosh, Kaya Scodelario and Johannes Heinrichs also star in this melodramatic, mile-a-minute biopic.</p>
