“In case I don’t see ya, good afternoon, good evening, and good night.”
Ah, Sunday.
Some of you may be feeling a bit tender today following the removal of most Covid restrictions on Friday.
You probably don’t want to leave the house today, and understandably so.
Luckily, there are plenty of good movies to check out while you’re curled up on the couch.
So grab a Lucozade, sit down, and check out JOE’s top picks on the small screen for tonight.
Johnny English: Reborn – ITV2 – 4.15pm
The second one.
The Truman Show – Sony Movie Channel – 5pm
Our top pick for tonight’s films is a masterpiece.
Jim Carrey stars as Truman Burbank, a salesman who discovers that his entire life has been the subject of a reality TV show.
