If something sounds too good to be true, it's probably fake - except in the case of getting free access to Apple TV+ in January 2025.
As we bid adieu to 2024 and wrestle with which New Year's resolutions are worth attempting, we'll have the opportunity to tuck into the likes of Bad Sisters and Severance for free.
The all-access opportunity will run for the first weekend of January, so from the 3rd to the 5th of the month.

This is the first deal of its kind, and accessible to anybody with an iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple TV, smart TV, or gaming console with the Apple TV app installed.
It can be accessed by those who had previously paid for Apple TV and cancelled, and it's a great opportunity to sink your teeth into some of the content ahead of three brand-new shows landing on the platform during January; the second season of Severance, Mystic Quest, and Prime Target.
Without the deal, Apple TV would cost UK viewers £8.99 per month, or $9.99 in the U.S - so it's a right steal.

One of the aforementioned shows, Severance should be at the top of your priority list - having landed to critical acclaim.
The premise hooks you in immediately - following the lives of office workers who have had their memories altered to be surgically divided between their work and personal lives. When a mysterious colleague appears outside of work, it begins a journey to discover the truth about their jobs.
The thriller, which debuted in 2022, stars Adam Scott as Mark, a 'severed' worker.

Supporting cast includes Patricia Arquette as Harmony Cobel, the manager of the 'severed floor', and Zach Cherry, Adam's severed co-worker.
The nine-part series earned an almost perfect Rotten Tomatoes score of 97%, with critics and viewers raving about the show.
Tilly Pearce wrote for Digital Spy: "Severance is very obviously a show with a master plan, and it will have you gripped, laughing, and confused all in one go. It's perfect for the target audience of Black Mirror, in the episodes where the world appears only slightly left of our reality."
And Keith Watson added for Metro: "Both a meditation on modern work/life balance and a moving take on the corrosive power of grief, this Ben Stiller-directed jigsaw puzzle is the year’s most thought-provoking show."

Over on X, one viewer said: "jealous of everyone who gets to experience s1 of severance for the first time."
Another said: "I can't believe I waited this long to watch Severance. It's INCREDIBLE."
