Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are not letting setbacks deter them as they embark on new television projects. After the abrupt end of their Spotify podcast, the couple is reportedly working on a TV show for Netflix titled "Bad Manners," inspired by Charles Dickens' "Great Expectations." The series will reimagine the character Miss Havisham as a resilient woman navigating a patriarchal society. While it is unclear if Netflix has greenlit the show, it follows the success of their documentary series on the streaming platform.

In addition to "Bad Manners," the couple has a lineup of potential shows, including a documentary on the Invictus Games titled "Heart of Invictus." This program will showcase competitors from around the world as they train for the games, which were postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have reportedly pitched several TV projects, including an animated series called "Pearl" that celebrates powerful women throughout history. These projects are part of their efforts to secure the remaining £40 million from their deal with Netflix.
