IPLAYER ADVENTURE DRAMA
today, but if you can ignore such un-PC moments, you’ll be rewarded with an entertaining war movie based on General Gordon’s efforts to defend the titular city from the Mahdist army in the late 19th Century. Charlton Heston, Ralph Richardson and Richard Johnson co-star. From Saturday
Gentleman adventurer Phileas Fogg (David Tennant, left, centre), his newly appointed valet Passepartout (Ibrahim Koma, far left) and intrepid journalist Abigail (Leonie Benesch, near left) attempt to circumnavigate the globe in only 80 days in order for Fogg to win a huge bet in this fast-moving, fun, largely family-friendly updating of the classic Jules Verne story.
