If you’re looking for inspiration for shows to watch on streaming service NOW, you’ve come to the right place.

In A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, Game of Thrones gets another spin-off, but with no dragons in sight. Instead, we’re following a minor knight and squire named Duncan the Tall (Peter Claffey) and Egg (Dexter Sol Ansell), who want to win some money at a local tournament.

Meanwhile, an inexperienced but resourceful prison officer is tasked with moving a dangerous criminal mastermind from one secure location to another: that’s the recipe for streamlined thriller Prisoner that explodes into life when the convoy hits traffic in a remote Welsh road tunnel.

You could also try Amadeus, which stars Will Sharpe as Mozart and Paul Bettany is Salieri, and provides a new take on their almost certainly fictional rivalry, as first presented in Peter Shaffer’s play.

All five episodes are available to stream on NOW in the UK, sitting alongside other recent acclaimed series such as It: Welcome to Derry and The Chair Company.

NOW is also home to widely discussed dramas The Last of Us and The Day of the Jackal, plus highly decorated comedy Hacks, with gritty crime thriller Gangs of London among the British originals to choose from.

All of this means it’s the perfect place to head to if you’re looking for an evening’s entertainment. In fact, it’s also where you can find real classics, such as The Wire, Boardwalk Empire and The Sopranos.
