Kicking off the month in grand style is Marie Antoinette: Season 2, premiering March 23, 2025. As the Queen of France ascends in stature, so too do the forces seeking her downfall.

Following this royal spectacle, Wolf Hall: The Mirror & The Light picks up where its predecessor left off, tracing Thomas Cromwell’s final years as Henry VIII’s most feared advisor.
With Mark Rylance returning as the cunning statesman and Damian Lewis reprising his role as the formidable King, the long-awaited sequel promises power struggles, betrayal, and gripping historical drama.
Closing the month, Season 14 of Call the Midwife begins on March 30th, delivering heartwarming yet poignant tales of resilience, hope, and medical marvels.
Meanwhile, fan-favorites All Creatures Great & Small, The Paris Murders, and Velvet continue to captivate audiences with their signature charm—whether through heartwarming veterinary adventures, pulse-pounding investigations, or highstakes romance that keeps viewers on the edge of their seats.
