House Of The Dragon

WEDNESDAY

Wild Cherry, Paramount +

Set within the polished but pressure-cooker world of an elite private school, this six-part British thriller centres on lifelong friends Lorna and Juliet, whose carefully curated lives begin to unravel when their teenage daughters become entangled in a serious scandal. What starts as a crisis of reputation soon becomes a deeply personal battle, forcing the women onto opposing sides in an increasingly fraught moral stand-off. Starring Carmen Ejogo and Eve Best, the series is glossy on the surface, and dangerously combustible underneath.
