May is not offering its usual relief. The sun is out, yes. Spring is indeed, well, springing. But it feels different when we're watching it do so from our window. With coronavirus maintaining its grip on the UK and, indeed, the world we're doing out bit by keeping inside. If you're seeking for distraction, Netflix has you covered.
There are some bonafide classics, like Sex Education, The Good Place, Elite, Gilmore Girls and, of course, Friends that will keep you going throughout the month. But there are also some new additions, including adorable new Netflix original films that the streaming giant is gaining a reputation for and American Horror Story director Ryan Murphy's newest endeavour.
Here's what's on Netflix this May:

In further telly-related news, Friends bosses have revealed the fate of the long-awaited reunion episode after filming was postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Speaking to Variety, WarnerMedia Entertainment and Direct-to-Consumer chairman Bob Greenblatt explained: "At first we thought, shows will be delayed for a month or two at the most, and now it seems like it’s going to be far longer than that," he admitted to the publication.
