Sky is powering on with its original content and we now have a feast of first-look trailers to enjoy

We reported yesterday (here) on Sky’s ambitions for new content and today they’ve followed up with six new trailers for a whole range of shows. We’ll go through each one by one.

Mutiny in space

Intergalactic from SkyWe’re already very keen on Intergalactic, and the new trailer has added to our excitement. Coming spring 2021 on Sky One and NOW TV, writer Julie Gearey (Prisoners’ Wives, Cuffs, Secret Diary of a Call Girl), tells the story of fearless young cop and galactic pilot, Ash Harper (Savannah Steyn), who has her glittering career ripped away from her after being wrongly convicted of a treasonous crime and exiled to a distant prison colony. But on the way there, Ash’s fellow convicts stage a mutiny and seize control of their prison transfer ship. With the flight crew dead, mob leader Tula Quik (Sharon Duncan-Brewster), is intent on reaching the free world – Arcadia – with her gang; and Ash is the only pilot who can get them there.

Back and in more trouble

Temple from Sky

Autumn 2021 brings Temple 2. Daniel is in even deeper trouble. In the first season, he just about kept the plates in the air as he looked after his wife, Beth, in an illicit clinic underneath Temple tube station. But now everything comes crashing down as Beth wakes from her coma and demands answers. You can watch the trailer here. If you didn’t catch Temple, you might want to rectify that after seeing this.

A lighthearted look at the world of paramedics

Bloods from Sky

A change of pace with a Jane Horrocks comedy, Bloods is a six-part series where Horrocks and Samson Kayo are partners in the South London ambulance service. When tough-acting loner Maleek is paired with over-friendly divorcee Wendy, their partnership looks dead on arrival. But pretty soon they’re giving each other life support. An ensemble comedy starring Lucy Punch, Julian Barrett, Adrian Scarborough, Kevin Garry, Sam Campbell and Aasiya Shah. It’s coming on March 10 2021. Watch the trailer here.

A third season for a much-loved Michelle Keagan comedy

Brassic from Sky

When it comes to comedy on Sky, you have to talk about BrassicBrassic 3 hits our screens later this year. In the last season of Brassic, fans were left with a cliff-hanger: What did Erin (Michelle Keegan) whisper to Vinnie (Joe Gilgun)? Join them and the rest of the gang – Tommo, Dylan, JJ, Ashley, Carol, Cardi, Sugar and Farmer Jim – as they continue to celebrate the chaos with more misadventures and schemes.

Thrilling, funny and specially extended to eight episodes, the new season sees the friends thrown deeper and deeper into trouble. With pressure building from the Police and crime boss Mr. McCann, Vinnie is forced to ruthlessly take no prisoners in his bid to escape. The trailer is here.
