BRAND NEW DRAMA
SAY NOTHING
Thursday 14th November on Disney+
Based on a true story, new FX drama Say Nothing launches this week on Disney+ and promises to be a gripping story of murder and memory in Northern Ireland during The Troubles.
Based on the book by Patrick Radden Keefe, the series spans four decades and opens with the shocking disappearance of Jean McConville, a single mother of ten who was abducted from her home in 1972 and never seen alive again. But McConville was only one of many others who became known collectively as The Disappeared.
Through the eyes of various IRA members, including sisters Dolours and Marian Price, played by Lola Petticrew and Hazel Doupe, two young women who transformed into magnetic symbols of radical politics, Brendan Hughes, played by Anthony Boyle, a tight-lipped but conflicted military strategist and Gerry Adams, a savvy political operator who would go on to negotiate peace but ultimately deny his involvement with the IRA, played by Josh Finan.
Say Nothing unpacks the extremes some people will go to within a civil rights movement as they pursue their ideals, the mystery surrounding The Disappeared, the cost of silence, and the way society mends - or doesn't - after a long and bloody conflict.
The drama also stars Maxine Peake as adult Dolours Price.

RETURNING DRAMA
SILO
Friday 15th November on Apple TV+
Apple TV+'s hit drama based on Hugh Howey's trilogy of dystopian novels, Silo, returns this week for a second season. It's the story of the last ten thousand people on earth, their mile-deep home protecting them from the toxic and deadly world outside. However, no one knows when or why the silo was built and those who try to find out face fatal consequences.
Rebecca Ferguson stars as Juliette, an engineer who seeks answers about a loved one's murder and tumbles onto a mystery that goes far deeper than she could have ever imagined, leading her to discover that if the lies don't kill you, the truth will.
In addition to Ferguson, the second season stars new addition Steve Zahn, alongside returning stars Tim Robbins, Common, Harriet Walter, Chinaza Uche, Avi Nash, Alexandria Riley, Shane McRae, Remmie Milner, Clare Perkins, Billy Postlethwaite, Rick Gomez, Caitlin Zoz, Tanya Moodie and Iain Glen.
