The Paper<\/p>\n
9pm, Sky Max
The Office spin-off finds its funny stride, as the staff of the Toledo Truth Teller get to work on finding local news. Exasperated new editor Ned (Domhnall Gleeson) and his only promising reporter Mare (Chelsea Frei) go undercover as a couple at a mattress store to expose a scandal. But it is scorned managing editor Esmeralda (Sabrina Impacciatore) and her bitter attempts to sabotage Ned that make for the most hilarious moments. Hollie Richardson<\/p>\n

A slightly stronger set of sketches from the comedy pair this week, with silly swipes taken at retro board game adverts, Abba, horror film fans and \u2013 in a meta turn \u2013 Mitchell and Webb\u2019s own brand. Josh Pugh and Helen Bauer guest star in a game of musical chairs. HR<\/p>\n
Peacemaker<\/p>\n

Robert Eggers, already one of the most distinctive voices in American cinema, risked looking a tad arrogant when he announced that he was remaking FW Murnau\u2019s 1922 classic. But the risk paid off. Eggers has captured both the pervading sense of dread and stylish production design of the original, while deepening the mythology to make it more palatable for modern viewers. It\u2019s a true horror, with every frame filled with foreboding. And now, after playing both Pennywise in It and Count Orlock, surely Bill Skarsg\u00e5rd qualifies as the world\u2019s scariest actor. But it is Lily-Rose Depp\u2019s tortured, possessed performance as Orlock\u2019s victim Ellen that really impresses. Stuart Heritage<\/p>\n
The Wrong Paris (Janeen Damian, 2025), Netflix
A romcom with a premise that, depending how you view these things, is either the most genius or stupid ever put to film: Miranda Cosgrove plays a woman who enters a dating show in the belief that it will be filmed in Paris. It is but, get this, it\u2019s the one in Texas not the one in France. Can she learn to fall in love with a tanned rural beefcake rather than the existential Frenchman of her dreams? Pierson Fode plays the cowboy, so it\u2019s best to assume yes. One to watch twice: first for the film and second to imagine the outraged cartwheels Wim Wenders must be doing. SH<\/p>\n
