Stan: What's New For 1 June - 7 June 2021

Poster for This is England '90

We're almost at the halfway mark of 2021, but it still very much feels like 2020 in overtime. Really looking forward to when things get back to normal when our social lives get in the way of our streaming because we actually have social lives.

Television:

It was a strong week for television on Stan, with no less than 3 new shows, and 2 returning favourites. Shane Meadows’ "This is England" series has given us some great drama both in television and in film format, and the final chapter arrives in This is England '90, a short 4-episode arc that concludes the stories for Lol, Woody, Shaun, Milky, Smell, Gadget, Harvey, Kell, Trev and Combo.

This forgotten sci-fi comedy from the UK can be unforgotten right now if you stream Tripped on Stan, while this week's foreign TV series is the Nordic Noir drama series Snow Angels.

Both Killing Eve and The Good Fight return with new seasons as well, ensuring you will have plenty of quality drama to stream

Movies, Documentaries:

What with Kate Winslet showing once again what a great actress she is in "Mare of Easttown", one of my favourite movies of all time, The Reader, is surely ripe for a re-watch. Two very different movies over two time periods, it's a restatement to Winslet's acting ability that she can play a Nazi prison guard and still come off as sympathetic.

2017's Best Picture winner Moonlight deservedly won and you can find out why by watching it now on Stan.

And a good movie doesn't have to be a dour drama, as proven by W. (2008) and The Big Sick. For those too young to remember, there was a time when we all thought George W. Bush was the worst president in the history of the United States and will be for some time. How naive we were. And "The Big Sick" was Kumail Nanjiani's big break theatrical wise (he's now in "The Eternals"), and is actually losely based on the real story of how he met his wife, who co-wrote the film with him.

And if you're after a decent, if not spectacular action flick, then Mel Gibson's Blood Father is worth a consideration.

Tyler Perry's Madea series is iconic in the US, especially among the Black American community. You now have a chance to find out why it's such a big deal by more than half a dozen Madea movies, as well as a few of Perry's other Black-centric films.

And finally, in documentaries/reality shows, there's a bunch of ones featuring Jamie Oliver you might want to check out. There is also Foreman, and you can find out all about the guy who sells those grills (who also moonlights as a sporting icon in his spare time).
