Becoming Jane, 1.20pm, BBC2

THIS speculative biographical drama about Jane Austen suffers from not being a match for her own writings. Anne Hathaway plays Jane with wide eyes and pupils that dilate at the sight of James McAvoy’s Tom Lefroy — a suitor of Jane’s who might have left his mark on her imagination.

Hopep Springs, pg, 1.20am,, Ch4

THERE’S great chemistry between Tommy Lee Jones and Meryl Streep (pictured) in this sparky romcom. They play a married couple, who have slept in separate rooms since their nest emptied, looking to put some fizz back into their love life.
