MOVIE CHOICE
That’s Entertainment! (1974) U 1.25PM, BBC2
If you love MGM musicals, this is a dream come true: a studio-produced, feature-length compilation of all those golden moments, with a roll call of the dreamiest stars. Sinatra, Astaire, Crosby and Kelly, plus Reynolds, Taylor, Minnelli and more. It’s quite simply swell.
Last Vegas (2013) 12 9PM, CH4
Though not as extreme as The Hangover, this comedy proves that age is no barrier to having fun on a stag weekend. Three longtime friends (Kevin Kline, Morgan Freeman and Robert De Niro) join Michael Douglas’s groom-to-be in Las Vegas, where they heal old wounds as well as behaving a little badly.
The Truth Commissioner (2016) 15 9.30PM, BBC2
Based on the novel by David Park, this stars Roger Allam as a conflict resolution expert who is appointed Northern Ireland’s truth commissioner. A thriller wrapped up in a fictional account of the peace process, in which truth and power prove to be uneasy companions.
