Sort Your Life Out With Stacey Solomon

The charming decluttering series (fronted by the ever-engaging Solomon) continues to live up to the promise of its title.

The Strays (Nathaniel Martello-White, 2023), Netflix
The influence of Jordan Peele is clear in this smart, snappy psychological thriller from Nathaniel Martello-White. Ashley Madekwe, so good in 2019’s County Lines, stretches herself again as Cheryl, a young Black London mum who flees her unhappy existence. We next meet her years later, but now she is calling herself Neve and is ensconced in home counties comfort with a white husband (Justin Salinger) and two teenage children. However, her collection of wigs suggests a denial of her racial identity, and when this carefully manicured life is infiltrated by two people from her past – played with real edge by Rocks star Bukky Bakray and Jorden Myrie – things rapidly go downhill.
