Flesh and Blood SERIES PREMIERE SUN Oct 4 | 9p This contemporary mystery series explores the perils of late-life romance. As widow Vivien (Francesca Annis) nears her 70th birthday, retired GP Mark (Stephen Rea) sweeps her off her feet, shifting her priorities away from her three adult children. The children’s happy childhood memories – as well as their inheritance – are threatened by Mark’s arrival. Meanwhile, neighbor Mary (Imelda Staunton) has developed an unhealthy interest in the family’s unfolding drama.

Cobra SERIES PREMIERE SUN Oct 4 | 10p This political drama is set in the heart of the British government during a crisis that engulfs the nation. As widespread power outages cause chaos and threaten lives, a team comprising Britain’s leading experts, crisis contingency planners and most senior politicians assembles under the name “COBRA” (Cabinet Office Briefing Room A) to coordinate the government response and turn the lights back on. Robert Carlyle (Trainspotting, The Full Monty) and Victoria Hamilton (Mansfield Park, The Crown) star.

The Trouble with Maggie Cole SERIES PREMIERE SUN Oct 18 | 8p Dawn French (The Vicar of Dibley) stars in this new comedy drama that shows what happens when idle gossip escalates out of control. Set in a picturesque English fishing village, the series centers on Maggie Cole, the self-appointed oracle of this close-knit community. Maggie makes it her business to know a little bit about everyone’s lives – but she seems to have forgotten the cautionary adage that “people in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones.”
