What is Apple TV and what shows are on the streaming service?
APPLE TV is a relatively new addition to the tech giant's growing catalogue of services.
But what exactly is it? Here we answer some common questions about Apple TV and how it differs to other devices.
What is Apple TV?
Released in 2016, Apple TV is a media streaming device that can access music, film, TV and gaming content.
Starting at £149, Apple TV acts at an entertainment hub, allowing users to easily navigate across different platforms without constantly switching between the likes of BBC iPlayer, Netflix, iTunes and YouTube.
In some ways Apple's entrance into the "TV" market is no different from Amazon's Fire stick, or Google's Chromecast.
The latter two products essentially do the same things, and will burn a much smaller hole in one's pocket.
But, as with any Apple product, it seamlessly links with other Apple devices and services.
Users can also access Apple TV+, which is Apple's own streaming service containing original shows and content.
How does Apple TV work?
Apple TV currently comes in two different versions - Apple TV 4K and Apple TV HD, which also vary in storage capacity.
Both devices are identical and simply differ in picture quality.
Apple TV is a relatively small block-shaped device which can be plugged into a standard television or monitor.
Users simply have to log in with their Apple ID (used across all other devices) and begin browsing.
Apple also encourages its customers to purchase its HomePod speakers - for a full immersive experience.
Starting at £99 for a HomePod mini, this product is certainly not essential, but will look rather pretty sat next to the TV device.
The Apple TV app is another great feature that allows customers to watch their favourite programmes on the go.
Netflix is available on Apple TV 2 and later.
What shows are on Apple TV?
Like its competitors Netflix and Amazon, Apple is now producing its own content called Apple TV+.
Although a recent addition, Apple's own shows have already gained recognition.
Here's five of the Apple's highlights so far.
1 - Defending Jacob

At the other end of the genre spectrum - Ted Lasso is a whimsical take on an American's experiences managing a football team in England.

3. For All Mankind

For All Mankind takes viewers into a parallel world - exploring how the famous USA v Russia space race would have looked if it had continued beyond the 1970s.

4. Dickinson
Rotten Tomatoes score - 87%
