Rob Roy
Sony Movie Channel 9.00pm - 11.50pm ★★★
historical ⊲ A vivid and sometimes violent period adventure set in 18th-century Scotland. Liam Neeson is on stirring form as Rob Roy, a simple man forced into outlawry by dastardly Englishman Tim Roth. Despite some dull patches, this is strong action fare, with fine turns from Jessica Lange as Rob’s wife, John Hurt as a scheming nobleman and Brian Cox as Roth’s partner-in-crime.
