This is the first original drama produced for the new Channel 4 digital platform, which will be on YouTube, alongside a broadcast on Channel 4. It packs plenty of intrigue into 45 minutes. Written by Uzo Oleh, Beth stars Nicholas Pinnock and Abbey Lee as Joe and Molly, an interracial couple longing for a child as they struggle with IVF and ponder adoption (“I want our kid to look like both of us”). Eventually, an apparent miracle happens and Imogen is born. But soon, the circumstances around her conception – and Abbey’s relationship with her doctor – become mysterious. Pinnock and Lee do a sensitive job of rendering the retreating intimacies of their collapsing relationship.Channel 4, from Monday 9 June
Thisespionage comedydrama has its cake and eats it, with daft genre tropes and knowing humour. The key to its success is Arnold Schwarzenegger as agent Luke Brunner, happily poking fun at his own legend. When we rejoin Luke’s team, they’re in witness protection – and a shocking early death makes the threats they face clear. But they’re going up the wall, and Luke’s agent daughter Emma (Monica Barbaro) is cohabiting with both an ex and her new squeeze. Fortunately, they soon have a new adversary to distract them in the shape of terrifying nihilist Dante. Plus, Carrie-Anne Moss later joins as Luke’s old flame.Netflix, from Thursday 12 June

Alex Cooper’sCall Her Daddypodcast has become massive, second only to Joe Rogan’s manosphere monster but attracting a very different audience. It’s a candid exploration of sex and relationships with a strong emphasis on female empowerment. This two-part documentary expands Cooper’s empire by offering a glimpse of the woman behind the mic. Like the podcast, it’s rarely subtle and can feel a little stage-managed. But Cooper is a shrewd operator and this is another smartly placed building block in a growing media brand.Disney+, from Tuesday 10 June
This documentary exploring the catastrophe that unfolded at Travis Scott’s2021 concertin Houston is part of the same strand as Netflix’s Woodstock 99 series and covers similar ground in its depiction of systemic failure leading to tragedy. One key difference is that concertgoers now have mobile phones – and the frequently horrifying footage takes viewers right into the heart of the crush that claimed 10 lives. The story of the aftermath is bleak, too: as survivors tried to deal with the shock while coaxing some accountability from the people who failed them.Netflix, from Tuesday 10 June

Theimplosion of the Titansubmersible was briefly a worldwide obsession as the vessel plunged to explore the ruins of the Titanic.
