Ricky Gervais is back with a third series of his Netflix hit After Life.
The show follows Tony Johnson, a local newspaper journalist, as he navigates life following the death of his wife, Lisa.
After Life is a dark drama, exploring themes of mental health, grief, friendship and community.
But, as to be expected with Gervais, there's an element of comedy sprinkled in, making it as enjoyable to watch as it is hard-hitting.
