Hampstead (2017) Film4, 6.55pm ★★★

-

From director Joel Hopkins comes this twee British romcom, inspired by the true story of Harry Hallowes, a homeless man awarded the deed to a plot of land on the fringe of Hampstead Heath in 2007 after he’d squatted there for 20 years. Brendan Gleeson is Hallowes and Diane Keaton is Emily, a (fictional) widow and north London resident who – implausibl­y, as is often the romcom way – falls for him.
