The long wait is finally over - four years after we first met fussy angel Aziraphale and  f ast-living demon Crowley on screen,  the second season of Good Omens has now dropped on Prime Video worldwide. All six episodes of the supernatural sequel to the acclaimed adaptation of Neil Gaiman and Sir Terry Pratchett's beloved novel can be streamed via Prime as of 1am BST this morning.

DVD RELEASE: Staged 3 Released On DVD Today

The third and final season of Staged is released on DVD in the UK today.  You can order your copy from amazon.co.uk here.  David Tennant and Michael Sheen return as exaggerated versions of themselves alongside their real-life partners Georgia Tennant and Anna Lundberg and series creator Simon Evans, bringing some seasonal good cheer and the usual healthy dose of squabbling.  Season 3 of Staged sees life back to normal for David and Michael. They have moved on from lockdown and returned to their everyday working life, while Simon's career remains stagnant. His phone does ring, but only to ask if he can get David and Michael back together; and they've made it clear they want nothing more to do with him. But Christmas is approaching, and Simon hopes the warmth of the season might soften them to the idea of a radio version of a Christmas classic...but that's as far as Simon's plan has got!
