Noughts + Crosses 2

An adaptation of book one of Malorie Blackman's award-winning young adult series Noughts & Crosses, a gripping story of first love in a dangerous, alternate world where prejudice divides society.

The two have been friends since early childhood, but their relationship grows ever more complicated as they come of age.

It's the story of two families separated by power and prejudice but forever entwined by fate.

Bonnie Mbuli plays Sephy's mother Jasmine. The cast also features British musician Stormzy as newspaper editor Kolawale.

But when their peace is disturbed by an unexpected visitor, they must go to London to gather the resources they need to leave Albion for good.

Back in London, Sephy's disappearance is spurring vigilante attacks, and hate crime against Noughts is on the rise.

Wanted by the police for terrorism, and by the Ofa Brotherhood for his role in Sephy's kidnap, Jude hides out in an office block.

But when he unexpectedly meets Cara, who has both Cross and Nought heritage, things get off on the wrong foot.

Bull 6

Bull stars Michael Weatherly as Dr. Jason Bull in a drama inspired by the early career of Dr. Phil McGraw, the founder of one of the most prolific trial-consulting firms of all time.

Brilliant, brash and charming, Dr. Bull is the ultimate puppet master as he combines psychology, human intuition, and high-tech data to learn what makes jurors, attorneys, witnesses and the accused tick.

His personal life proves harder to manage as he tries to live a healthier lifestyle following a heart attack and learns he is expecting a child with his ex-wife.

Bull employs an enviable team of experts at Trial Analysis Corporation to shape successful narratives down to the very last detail.

This includes his quick-witted former brother-in-law, Benny Colón, a lawyer who acts as defence attorney in the company's mock trials.

There's also Marissa Morgan, a neurolinguistics expert from the Department of Homeland Security who monitors shifting jury reactions in real-time for Bull.

Also on the team is former NYPD detective Danny James, the firm's tough but relatable investigator; and Taylor Rentzel, a working mother and former colleague of Marissa's who is an expert in coding and computer hacking.

Rounding out the team is Chunk Palmer, a former all-American lineman and stylist-turned-law student who helps clients prepare their look and testimony for trial.

In high-stakes trials, Bull's combination of remarkable insight into human nature, three PhDs and a top-notch staff creates winning strategies that tip the scales of justice in his clients' favour.

In the Season 6 premiere, "Gone": Bull and the TAC team must call upon all their collective experience to locate Bull's kidnapped daughter, and the abductor warns them not to go to the police.

As Bull works to build the most important psych profile of his life, he begins to suspect the captor is someone connected to his past.
