What to watch for your Bank Holiday weekend duvet day

A A

Grab your comfiest pjs and crack into the chocolate eggs for a weekend of lazy lie ins and movie marathons 

Yes, staying in is starting to feel a bit tiresome, but the only way to enjoy it is to really lean into it! Make the most of this time at home to catch up on shows you might have missed and laugh-out-loud new comedies that are the perfect escape for the times we are in.

New films on Netflix

Love Wedding Repeat

Aisling Bea is part of an all-star line-up in Love Wedding Repeat, a story of a wedding that goes wrong in every single way. Rogue guests, messy love triangles, bizarre plots and lots of arguments occur as different versions of this special day unfold, as the brother of the bride (Sam Claflin) tries to ensure his sister has the perfect day. He must also contend with an angry ex-girlfriend (Frieda Pinto), the girl that got away (Olivia Munn) and a guest with a secret.

Extra Ordinary 

Maeve Higgins stars as a driving instructor that can communicate with the dead. Since her father passed away she turns down requests for her to use her gift. A new student signs up for lessons but he has an ulterior motive, as he and his daughter are plagued by their dead, but still nagging wife and mother. Elsewhere in the town, Will Forte is hoping to make a pact with the devil to recapture chart success and get rich. A bonkers movie that sees Maeve Higgins at her best and wackiest.
