Events that brought The Nation together in 2022 ranged from The Funeral of Her Majesty The Queen to the Lionesses' Euro football victory.

Television still has The Ability to unify millions of viewers in front of their TV screens.

2023 won't have some of the big dramas many may have hoped for. (We don't know if, let alone when, there might be more Bodyguard or Line of Duty coming our way).

But the year ahead still offers some tantalising titles and events.

So here (in strictly alphabetical order) are some of the TV programmes and events that could get us all talking in 2023.

And when we talk about televised events that bring The Nation together, it's easy to forget that The Last coronation was the First Time that ever happened.

After series five of about the blurred lines between historical fact and imagined drama, The Sixth and final series of The Royal drama sees Imelda Staunton returning as The Queen and Jonathan Pryce as The Duke of Edinburgh.

Then over the Christmas period, Sex Education star will take over from Tennant as the 15th Doctor with Millie Gibson as his companion. With show runner Russell T. Davies (who oversaw the original David Tennant era) back in charge, not to mention an actor like Gatwa who is already hugely popular with younger viewers, there's a high degree of expectation that The Show will see a significant boost in its popularity.
