Satellite choice
FUNNY FILM Central Intelligence, 1.05pm, 8pm, Sky Premiere
RELYING mostly on sight gags, Kevin Hart and Dwayne Johnson are old school pals — mismatched in both size and skill — who embark on an incongruously fun adventure after one of them joins the CIA.
TEEN DRAMA 13 Reasons Why, Netflix
DRENCHED in angst and cool music choices, this new U.S. show feels a bit like the midNineties Claire Danes drama My So-Called Life. It unpacks the life of a schoolgirl (Katherine Langford, pictured) through a cache of cassettes she leaves behind after her suicide — can the revelations on them be trusted? The series keeps you guessing — and hooked.

SITCOM FAMILY Carters Get Rich, 8pm, Sky 1
SURPRISINGLY humdrum new comedy from Sky, about a British family who suddenly become millionaires when one of the children invents a clever app. The children are good fun, as is James Van Der Beek (pictured with Kerry Godliman, Rhashan Stone, Rio Chambers and Rhiana Merralls) as the eccentric tech titan who buys the app, but this feels more like an idea than a show.
BEARS ON THE LINE Railroad Alaska, 9pm, Quest

FREEVIEW SCI-FI Prometheus, 9pm, E4
RIDLEY SCOTT returns to Alien, the chilling, visceral and atmospheric 1979 sci-fi horror that made his name. This prequel/reboot asks big questions and was too ponderous for some. Michael Fassbender is the android David, filled with wonder.
