Set in 1997, it follows the case of 14-year-old Reena Virk, who was beaten up and drowned by a gang of teenagers after a party. Gladstone plays a police officer on the case, and Keough a writer following it \u2013 both trying to get inside the minds of these teens. Hollie Richardson<\/p>\n<p>Inside Britain\u2019s Poshest Bakery<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-16w5gq9\">7pm, Channel 5<br \/>Nice buns! This snapshot of the aggressively expanding bakery Gail\u2019s wants to have its cake and eat it by raising an eyebrow at the eye-watering prices while also drooling over mouth-watering produce. The trifling consumer taste tests include offering the chichi chain\u2019s signature sourdough at a Margate greasy spoon during the breakfast rush.

He makes his <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/music\/proms\" data-link-name=\"in body link\" data-component=\"auto-linked-tag\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Proms<\/a> debut here, with the pieces performed including two whose familiarity will encourage close study of his technique: Bach\u2019s Air from Orchestral Suite No 3 and Summer from the Four Seasons by Vivaldi.

It doesn\u2019t sound like the most riveting TV, but this Michael Palin-voiced documentary is a balm. It features stunning visuals, and you\u2019re sure to learn something unexpected. Who knew that eucalyptus trees drink a bathtub of water each day \u2013 or that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/commentisfree\/2018\/jun\/13\/climate-change-baobab-africa-tree-of-life\" data-link-name=\"in body link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">a baobab<\/a> can hold 120,000 litres of the stuff? Hannah J Davies<\/p>\n<p>And Just Like That<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-16w5gq9\">9pm, Sky Comedy<br \/>Fans have just about got over the fact that, thanks to lazy writing, Lisa\u2019s father has died twice in the series. Onwards, and Lisa has a new dilemma: her work crush is getting out of hand. Meanwhile, Harry is recovering from his cancer operation, Miranda is putting off telling Joy that she is an alcoholic, and Carrie continues to \u2026 not do much at all.

Her first new case is helping a local photographer who is knocked out by a man who runs off with her camera, and she already has some ideas about why \u2026 Robert Webb guest stars. HR<\/p>\n<p>Film choiceNo Spider-Man here \u2026 Kraven the Hunter. Photograph: Jay Maidment\/AP<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-16w5gq9\">Kraven the Hunter (JC Chandor, 2024), 10.50am, 8pm, Sky Cinema Premiere<br \/>Few recent films stumbled into cinemas as dead on arrival as Kraven the Hunter. Knocked by Sony\u2019s repeated duff attempts to create a universe of Spider-Man baddies, none of which actually featured Spider-Man, the film was so poorly anticipated that the director was reduced to begging people to give it a chance. The good news is that Kraven the Hunter is actually a decent film. It\u2019s less silly than Madame Web and less wild than Morbius. Come expecting nothing more than a sturdy action film and you shouldn\u2019t leave disappointed. Stuart Heritage<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-16w5gq9\">Happy Gilmore 2 (Kyle Newacheck, 2025), out now, Netflix<br \/>There is a huge portion of the world that treats Happy Gilmore like a foundational text. A 1996 sports comedy about a short-tempered ice hockey fanatic who finds a surprising affinity for golf, this is arguably the archetypal Adam Sandler performance: loud, profane, occasionally syrupy. Almost 30 years later, it\u2019s time for the sequel. Here, Gilmore is forced out of retirement to pay for his daughter\u2019s ballet school. Expect lots of shouting, a billion cameos and \u2013 most intriguing of all \u2013 a turn by Sandler\u2019s Uncut Gems director Benny Safdie. SH<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-16w5gq9\">Blade Runner 2049 (Denis Villeneuve, 2017), 11.25pm, BBC One<br \/>If you need to get acquainted with the man <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/film\/2025\/jun\/26\/james-bond-movie-film-denis-villeneuve-director-amazon-mgm-studios\" data-link-name=\"in body link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">who\u2019ll lead James Bond into the future<\/a>, this is a decent place to start. Denis Villeneuve\u2019s sequel to Ridley Scott\u2019s original Blade Runner is monumental in every way. It moves slowly but loudly, and every frame is a maximalist spectacle. Ryan Gosling plays a replicant who discovers that his kind are able to biologically reproduce, leading him down a dark path that will take him to the fringes of society and make him question his own identity. If the next Bond is even a 10th as ambitious as this, we\u2019re in for a total treat.
