The arrival of the four-day Easter weekend brings one huge opportunity: the chance to finally catch up on all that TV you’ve been missing out on.

You know, the stuff that people talk about loudly in work, until you have to turn around and say, ‘I haven’t started watching that yet, but I am going to at some point – so please stop saying who gets killed off’.

Whatever your tastes, there’s something for you.

Comic book devotees have likely already snapped up the brand new series of Netflix’s Daredevil, which brings The Punisher and Elektra into the fray, but for the uninitiated it’s a gripping trip into New York’s dark alleyways.

Then there’s Game of Thrones, returning soon for its most highly-anticipated series yet – meaning now is the time to catch up on the first five seasons on Sky Box Sets. Nudity, dragons, and political intrigue – it’s a heady combination.
