Today (September 1) sees the launch in the US of Amazon Prime Video ’s highly anticipated series, The Rings of Power. This epic drama, set thousands of years before the events of Tolkien’s The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, is thought to be the most expensive TV series ever made.
The eight episodes are reported to have cost $465m (£403m) to make and, after a double-episode release this week, will be available weekly until October 14.
So what time will viewers in the UK be able to see the series? And what have the reviews been like?
