PAY-PER-VIEW MOVIES

Parasite (2019) 15 u (Sky Store, buy & keep only) ★★★★★ The less you know about Bong Joon-ho’s Oscar-winning drama the better. It’s a story of class and the difference­s between two families – but that’s the tip of the iceberg.

DRAMA Project Blue Book (All 20 episodes) ★★★ Based on declassifi­ed files, this eerie drama is named after the secret US investigat­ion into UFOs between 1952 and 1969. Aidan Gillen (above) plays the astrophysi­cist brought in to debunk the sightings, but finding they cannot be explained away by mere Earth science.

DOCUMENTAR­Y Richard E. Grant On Ealing Comedies (All three parts) ★★★★ Richard E. Grant loves Ealing comedies, and that shines through in his superb, clip-packed history of the studio that gave us Passport To Pimlico.

MOVIE Labyrinth (1986) PG ● ★★★★ See Snowpierce­r’s Jennifer Connelly at the start of her career in this magical puppet maze adventure with David Bowie.

COMEDY The Orville (Seasons 1-2) ★★★★ Seth MacFarlane’s show started out as a spoof of 1990s Star Trek, but became a fully fledged show in its own right. There are some great guest stars, too, including Rob Lowe and Ted Danson.
