Here's how to watch new Rivals series in the UK
There's just over a week to go until Rivals lands on our screens and we can dive fully into the world of Jilly Cooper. The long-awaited series explores the cut-throat world of TV in the 1980s and brings to life one of Cooper's most iconic Rutshire Chronicles novels. But where can you watch the new series? And crucially what else do you need to know about it? Consider this your 101 on all things Rivals.
What is Rivals?
Rivals is an eight-part series based on Jilly Cooper's best selling novel of the same name. Starring David Tennant and Alex Hassell, the series centres on the world of independent TV in the late 1980s and the fierce rivalry between TV station controller Tony Baddingham (Tennant) and former Olympic horse-rider and Conservative MP Rupert Campbell-Black (Hassell). As the tension between them rises, everyone is after a slice of power and no one knows who will end up on top.
When is Rivals available to watch?
Mark your calendars for 18th October as all eight episodes (yes perfect for binge-watching) of Rivals will be arriving on Disney+ then.
