DRAMA

SUCCESSION, SKY ATLANTIC, THURSDAY 9PM

Jesse Armstrong’s hugely entertaining dynastical drama has been compared to everything from King Lear to the reallife experiences of the Murdoch family, and Brian Cox is superb as Logan Roy, the fearsome patriarch of a giant media conglomerate whose failing health has encouraged his scheming children to act. Tonight, Kendall is confronted by a financial crisis, and Marcia’s influence on Logan is growing.
