If you need something heartwarming … Special is the Emmy-nominated series from actor and comedian Ryan O’Connell, who has cerebral palsy. Based on Neil Gaiman’s immensely popular comic. Having been kept captive since World War I, Dream faces a set of unique challenges when he escapes his prison and enters the modern world. The Endless are powerful beings who are even older and greater than the gods. If you liked The Sandman comics … the TV series follows the adventures of Dream (Tom Sturridge), aka Morpheus, who is a member of the Endless. With drama driven by well-drawn characters gradually revealed, it quickly becomes addictive. It’s going to involve a raid on a big and gleaming new currency mint, and while it’s no spoiler to say that things don’t go exactly to plan, at times it seems that the wily Professor has indeed planned for almost every conceivable contingency. What she finds instead is exploitation and brutality and, after carving out her own bloody path, she’s recruited by the Professor (Yoo Ji-tae), who’s putting together a colourful, if slightly volatile, team for a very special heist. Based on the hit Spanish series Money Heist and set in the near future, it stars Jeon Jong-seo as a young North Korean woman who moves south for some of the glittering opportunities promised by the two Koreas’ economic reintegration.
