Funny Girl (1968) BBC2, 2.05pm
Barbra Streisand (above) reprised her Broadway role as Fanny Brice in this hit biopic, becoming an instant legend in the process. She also won an Oscar for her barnstorming performance as the singer and comedian, in a film that charts her rise to fame in the 1920s and a disastrous marriage to a gambler (played by Omar Sharif). ★★★★★
