The Hurt Locker (2008) BBC4, 9pm

Kathryn Bigelow became the first woman to win Best Director at the Oscars for her sterling work on this

Iraq war drama. Jeremy Renner (above) is on impressive form too as

Sgt William James, a bomb disposal expert whose gung-ho attitude and reckless behaviour put him at odds with the GIs under his command. ★★★★★
