Remember Kung Fu? That old show where David Carradine played a westerner-turned-monk who walks the Earth handing out chop-socky lessons to those who aren’t living righteously? Well, like everything else that’s old, Kung Fu has been given the reboot treatment, only this time we follow Nicky (Olivia Lang), a young Chinese-American woman who drops out of law school and heads off to an isolated monastery in China.

In a case of ‘better late that never’, Stan is adding This Is England ’90 to its library, joining previous instalments This Is England ’86 and ’88 and completing the series once and for all. If you’re unfamiliar with Shane Meadows’ brilliant coming of age saga, start with the original This Is England film (also on Stan), which is an absolute masterpiece about Northern England’s skinhead culture in 1983.
