Sunday.
Movies.
TV.
Here’s the most appealing options on this potentially very wet Sunday 23 February…
Bridge of Spies – Film 4 – 6.10pm
A very strong ‘Sunday on the couch’ opportunity here.
You’ve got Tom Hanks. You’ve got Steven Spielberg. You’ve got the Cold War. And you’ve got Mark Rylance, who picked up an Oscar for his troubles.

The original. In February. Because it’s not just for Christmas, apparently.

Gone Girl – Film 4 – 9pm
David Fincher’s pitch-black thriller will turn you off the idea of marriage forever. Unless, of course, you’re already locked in. In which case, best of luck?

The second of the recent trilogy and the best by some distance.
The Invention of Lying – SyFy – 9pm
