The White Lotus (Sky Atlantic/Now)
A Thousand Blows (Disney+)
Escaping Utopia (BBC Two) | iPlayer
It is time once more to book into a sumptuous hotel and watch the frightful, fragile rich have a very bad time. The third series of Mike White’s The White Lotus (Sky Atlantic/Now), largely set in Koh Samui, Thailand, arrives not with anything as vulgar and obvious as a bang; it’s more of a muggy, jet-lagged, overindulged stupor of jade-hued water, tensely chattering monkeys, Buddha statues, wellness treatments, digital detoxes and western holidaymakers for whom everything good in life is lavishly on tap, but will never be deemed quite enough.
