MOVIE CHOICE

THE IPCRESS FILE (1965) PG

● 3.45PM, BBC2 ★★★★ Michael Caine is perfectly cast as Len Deighton’s ambiguous spy, Harry Palmer, an antidote to the suave elegance of

007. In the first in a series of films based on Deighton’s novels, Palmer, the spy with a criminal past, must find a kidnapped scientist and uncover a sinister plot.

THE FESTIVAL (2018) 15

9PM, CH4 ★★★

For those missing their annual dose of musical and cultural indulgence at Glastonbury and other cancelled festivals, this comedy is just the ticket. Inbetweener Joe Thomas packs his tent and heads to the Giant Music Festival, where he strives to get over a girl.

See The Big Movie, page 23.
