Secretariat

BBC2 11.00am - 1.00pm

This is the long-shot, against-theodds true story of Penny Chenery Tweedy (Diane Lane) and her eccentric trainer (John Malkovich) who, in the 1970s, staked everything on her stallion Secretariat. It’s a stylish, well-acted drama, but not quite as thrilling as similar movie Seabiscuit. Dir: Randall Wallace 2010, U, 120min
