Every Friday, I let you know the latest announcements about when new, imported TV shows will finally be arriving on UK screens
Acquisitions this week haven’t been huge, but we have:
- Beauty and the Baker (Israel: Keshet Broadcasting) – acquired by Amazon but apparently already on All4/Walter Presents
- Dynasty (US: The CW) – acquired by Netflix (UK)
Otherwise, all the new premiere dates are for new shows that haven’t aired anywhere yet, so I can’t tell you if they’re any good or not. Soz.

View all postsI’m Rob Buckley, a journalist who writes for UK media magazines that most people have never heard of although you might have heard me on the podcast Lockdown Land or Radio 5 Live’s Saturday Edition or Afternoon Edition. I’ve edited Dreamwatch, Sprocket and Cambridge Film Festival Daily; been technical editor for TV producers magazine Televisual; reviewed films for the short-lived newspaper Cambridge Insider; written features for the even shorter-lived newspaper Soho Independent; and was regularly sarcastic about television on the blink-and-you-missed-it “web site for urban hedonists” The Tribe. Since going freelance, I've contributed to the likes of Broadcast, Total Content + Media, Action TV, Off The Telly, Action Network, TV Scoop and The Custard TV.
