Disney+ now costs as little as £4.99 a month for the Standard with Ads plan, but members can get 12 months for the price of 10 by paying for a year upfront on the Standard or Premium plans.

Disney+ is the only place to stream epic shows including Shōgun and Welcome to Wrexham, plus blockbuster franchises like Star Wars and Marvel.

The Bear is heading back to screens for a third season as fans hail the return of ‘peak’ TV. The award-winning comedy-drama will return with 10 all-new episodes on June 27 exclusively on Disney+, joining seasons one and two which are streaming here now.

As per its official synopsis, season three will follow Carmen “Carmy” Berzatto (Jeremy Allen White), Sydney Adamu (Ayo Edebiri) and Richard “Richie” Jerimovich (Ebon Moss-Bachrach) as they do what it takes to elevate The Bear – their beef stand turned fine dining establishment – to the highest level, all while doing their best just to stay in business. 

Carmy pushes himself harder than ever and demands excellence from his crew, who do their best to match his intensity. Their quest for culinary excellence will propel them to new levels and stress the bonds that hold the restaurant together and as the team grows in size, each member will strive to reach a greater level of service within their role.
