Sex/Life (Season 2)
What’s it about? Sex/Life proved to be Netflix’s raunchiest show ever (even more so than Bridgerton) when its first season debuted in 2021, telling the story of a married woman who spent months fantasising about the wild sex life she used to have with her rocker ex.

MH370: The Plane That Disappeared

Money Shot: The Pornhub Story
What’s it about? “Pornhub, the internet’s most famous adult entertainment platform, fundamentally changed how pornography is made and distributed. This enabled erotic content creators to reach a massive audience while the company made billions of dollars – but it also became embroiled in allegations including non-consensual material and trafficking on the site.
“As anti-trafficking organisations seek justice for victims, can the online giant protect those from whom they profit, or is this a new wave of censorship for adult performers making consensual porn?”
Streaming from: 15 March
The Night Agent
What's it about? "Based on the novel by Matthew Quirk, The Night Agent is a sophisticated, character-based, action-thriller centering on a low level FBI Agent who works in the basement of the White House, manning a phone that never rings – until the night that it does, propelling him into a fast moving and dangerous conspiracy that ultimately leads all the way to the Oval Office."
