Many and varied are the options that November brings in the field of series, from
thrillers
and various comedies to the violent action in the London underworld of
Gangs of London
or the review of the contemporary history of the return of
The Crown
.
The platforms and channels come loaded with premieres in a month that is expected to be complicated in terms of confinements and in which it will be good to have reinforcements to make the confinements more bearable.
Of all the premieres and comebacks in November (which you can check on our calendar), we recommend giving this selection a try.
Roadkill
British miniseries with luxury cast with Hugh Laurie (
House
), Helen McCrory (
Peaky Blinders

All creatures great and small
British-style escapism in a gentle drama in the Yorkshire Dales.
This series is a new adaptation of the novels of the veterinarian and writer James Herriot that have already been brought to the small screen in a British television classic.
Follow the adventures of a young, newly graduated veterinarian who finds work as a rural veterinarian's assistant in a northern English town.
In these complicated and uncertain times, the tranquility that transpires and even the predictability of its plots are almost therapeutic and unintentionally elicit a smile.
Also, what beautiful landscapes.
Where and when to see it?
On Tuesday 3 in Filmin (with dubbed and subtitled version).
Nasdrovia
Leonor Watling and Hugo Silva star in this kind of cross between the comedy with a criminal background
Barry
the breaking of the fourth wall and the impudence of
Fleabag
.
The protagonists are a successful divorced couple of lawyers who decide to turn their lives around and leave the murky world in which they move to set up a Russian food restaurant with a chef specialized in that cuisine.
However, problems will haunt them when the Russian mafia discovers the place and they verify that they feel like they are in the mother country.
The humor (quite black) arises from the delusional situations in which they are involved and from those winks at the viewer through the character of Watling.
Very entertaining.
Where and when to see it?

ByAnaMilan
The actress Ana Milan took advantage of the confinement to remember and, incidentally, entertain the staff by telling some of her most memorable anecdotes on social networks.
These anecdotes will be the starting point for a comedy that mixes reality and fiction and that tells the story of an Ana Milan about to marry the love of her life and shoot a movie as the protagonist to which life surprises her with a change of course that leaves her without a wedding and without a film.

Moonbase 8
Fred Armisen, Tim Heidecker and John C. Reilly are the protagonists and co-creators of this comedy with a very particular humor.

If it connects with their humor, it is quite funny due to the absurd situations they have to face and their particular ways of being.
Where and when to see it?

And with it come problems: suddenly, a series of paranormal phenomena begin to take place in this quiet town.
The mayor, Paco, and the veterinarian, Elena, will try to reveal what is happening and the meaning of a coin that Vergara hides and that seems to have to do with a global battle for control of the 30 coins for which the apostle Judas betrayed to Jesus of Nazareth.
Alex de la Iglesia is the creator and director of this series whose trailer (and first reviews) points to a story very much in line with his other creations: terror (with its monsters and its usual excesses) and touches of black humor.

Des
David Tennant is the protagonist of this British miniseries that tells the story of the serial killer Dennis Nilsen, an official who between 1978 and 1983 killed 15 people he knew on the streets of London.
He earned their trust, offered them food or accommodation, and subsequently killed them.
They were usually homeless and expelled from society in those years of economic crisis.
The problem is that when Nilsen was captured in 1983, there was no way to find the identity of his victims, forcing the police to carry out one of the largest investigations to hunt down the killer in UK history. , although in this case what was sought was not the murderer, but the murdered.
Besides the story, Tennant's performance is impressive, it's really scary.
