As Taiwan voters decide fate of ‘pro-China' lawmakers, TV show paints ominous future
Taiwan is gearing up for another election – this time to unseat 'pro-China' lawmakers. The vote could break the political gridlock the island is in, with disagreements turning into brawls in the parliament, hampering Taiwan President Lai Ching-te's ability to push forward his agenda that addresses key US concerns over Taiwan. The vote comes after the premier of Zero Day, a TV series which dramatizes what it could look like if China were to attack Taiwan, told from a Taiwanese perspective, and Taiwan's biggest military drill and civil defense exercise. CNN's Will Ripley breaks all of it down.

Tech: Microsoft security flaw, record NZ losses from cyber
Cybersecurity expert Tony Grasso joins Kathryn to talk about Microsoft's recent Zero Day security flaw - who was affected and how has the company responded? The latest report into the cost of cybercrime has found the second-highest quarterly financial losses ever, at a cost of $7.8m. But that's just what's been reported. Tony also looks at how South Africa's digital transformation is making it a target for sophisticated cyber criminals and why Latin American organisations are facing an average of 2,700 attacks a month - almost 40% higher than the global average. Tony Grasso is Principal Consultant at cybersecurity firm TitaniumDefence. He worked at GCHQ in the UK and is a former Intelligence Officer in New Zealand.

Every show cancelled by Netflix so far in 2025
Link is copied Comments It's been a bumper year for Netflix so far as we approach the halfway mark. The streaming platform has served up hit after hit in 2025, from the shocking and brilliant Adolescence and tense thriller Zero Day, through to more light-hearted fare such as The Four Seasons and Running Point. And returning favourites including Ginny and Georgia and The Night Agent have also hit big this year - with more familiar favourites, including the final series of Squid Game and the second season of Wednesday, to come. But for every new show which racks up the viewers, there are others which - sadly - we won't be seeing again, as they've fallen victim to the axe. But which shows have Netflix cancelled so far in 2025? Read on to find out which ones have been unlucky... (Picture: Manuel Fernández Valdes/NETFLIX) First up we have this sporting documentary aiming to follow in the footsteps of other hits including Formula 1: Drive To Survive, Break Point and Full Swing. Full Contact takes a behind-the-scenes look at the Six Nations Rugby championship, with the best teams in Europe battling it out in a bid to win the coveted trophy. We've had two series of this one, with the 2023 and 2024 championships coming under the spotlight - but Netflix confirmed ahead of a launch event for season two that there are no plans to return to the scrum for a third series. Which may well be a disappointment for fans of the sport (Picture: Netflix) Rugby isn't the only sport that's getting the heavo-ho from Netflix though - as the axe has also fallen on this documentary series which takes an in-depth look at the world's most famous cycling race. Three seasons of the show have been made - covering the 2022, 2023 and 2024 series - but Netflix confirmed earlier this year that the show would not be returning to cover the 2025 series. A spokesperson said: 'After three seasons, we are naturally coming to an end of this cycle. We're very proud of the work we've done and of the public response to the documentary series, which has allowed us to offer a fresh take on this legendary competition' (Picture: Alex Broadway 2023) The first of two Australia dramas on the list, this one follows a rebellious girl from New York who is expelled from school in Brooklyn and sent to live with family friends in a small Australian town - where she gets involved with a clique of local surfers. The show's end was confirmed by one of its stars, Liliana Bowrey, who responded to a fan query on Instagram about when the third series might be released by saying: 'There isn't one!' The actress also confirmed the bad news during a YouTube chat with co-star Kai Lewins - with the pair answering another question about a potential third series by staring silently into the camera as the screen faded to black. So it's fair to say this summer is over (Picture: Netflix) You may well have enjoyed this French version of the Spanish hit series Alpha Males - but sadly, you're not going to get any more time to get to know these characters, since the show has - for want of a better word - been shafted from Netflix. The show follows a group of middle-aged friends as they negotiate life, love and career crises in Paris - but news of its cancellation came in March this year after one of is stars, Guillaume Labbe, told French publication Tele Loisis that the series would not be returning. 'There is no season 2,' he explained. 'I would have liked there to be a second season because I loved working with the team. And it worked really well for Netflix. But they probably have good reasons for stopping that I don't know exactly. He went on to admit he was 'frustrated' by the show's axing (Picture: Netflix) Back to Australia now, and this family saga - dubbed the 'Succession of the outback' - focuses on the Lawson family, owners of the world's largest cattle station. However when Daniel, the favoured son of the family, dies in a suspicious accident leaving the ranch without a successor, the battle for ownership is on. Unfortunately for fans of the show, this one ended on a bit of a cliffhanger - meaning those who watched it will never get to find out the fate of Marianne Station, the ranch at the centre of the action. Netflix ANZ director of content Que Minh Luu said of the show: 'We are incredibly thankful to have had the chance to work with the wonderful cast and production team to bring Territory and the stunning Australian outback into the homes of millions around the world' (Picture: Netflix) It might come as a shock to learn that The Recruit won't be returning for a third series, given the popularity of this high-octane drama. Noah Centineo (To All The Boys I've Loved Before) takes the lead as Owen Hendricks, a lawyer whose life is flipped upside down when he begins working for the CIA. While the second series soared to the higher end of the Netflix charts - even challenging The Night Agent for the top spot - two series is your lot. Noah Centineo has addressed the cancellation, telling The Hollywood Reporter: 'It is what it is. Netflix, they have a certain mandate that they need to fill, and I'm very proud of the show, very grateful to our audience. We have a pretty strong cult following. And with Netflix, it just didn't really fit what it was that they needed, I suppose' (Picture: Netflix) Another series which won't be returning is this survival thriller from India. Kaala Paani centres on a group of individuals caught in a race against time for a cure, after a mysterious virus engulfs the islands of Andaman and Nicobar. While the show was well-received, being nominated for eight awards (and winning three prizes) at the 2024 Filmfare OTT Awards (which honour Hindi-language TV shows and films), a second series won't be forthcoming. In fact The Hollywood Reporter confirmed in May that season 2 had been scrapped just days before it was due to begin pre-production. A source close to the production told the publication that budget issues were to blame, suggesting the cost of making the show was 'humungous' (Picture: Netflix) Finally, here's another one which has been shelved after a single season, with the axe falling on the Madrid-set period drama despite talk of a second series. The show, which follows the life of lady-in-waiting Elena Bianda as she guides a trio of spirited sisters towards society and marriage, debuted in March this year and proved popular, with some dubbing it the 'Spanish Bridgerton'. But just weeks later Spanish publication El Confidencial Digital reported the show had been canned due to financial concerns - with Netflix Spain later confirming to What's On Netflix that the series would not be returning. We can only wonder what might have been if a second series had been given the greenlight (Picture: Manuel Fernández Valdes/NETFLIX)
