Speed (1994) ITV4, 9pm ★★★★★
Director Jan de Bont has never topped this explosive box-office smash that became a cult classic. It sees an extortionist bomber (Dennis Hopper) rig a packed school bus to explode if it drops below 50 miles per hour. It is left to Los Angeles Swat agent Jack Traven (Keanu Reeves) to board the runaway vehicle and attempt to save the day, with the particular help of one plucky passenger (Sandra Bullock).
