5PM, BBC1 ★★★★★

Olivia Newton-john and

John Travolta are the dream team who made this highschool musical rock and roll. One golden summer, Sandy and Danny fall in love. But Sandy is squeaky clean and, when the two meet again, she doesn’t fit in with Danny’s bad-boy greaser image.

HIDDEN FIGURES (2016) PG

● 6.40PM, CH4 ★★★★ Wonderful, feel-good historical drama about the black female engineers and mathematicians who worked behind the scenes at a segregated Nasa during the tense and ground-breaking 1960s space race. Taraji P. Henson, Octavia Spencer and Janelle Monae make it shine.

DUNKIRK (2017) 12

u

9.05PM, BBC1 ★★★★★

A stupendously staged war film that you can lose yourself in – and feel every loss and triumph. From the jaws of defeat, the Allies pluck survivors from the desolate beaches of France, assisted by a flotilla of British civilian boats. Kenneth Branagh, Tom Hardy and Harry Styles star.
