Grayson’s Art Club – Friday, Channel 4, 8pm
This is the second series of Grayson’s Art Club. The first one did surprisingly well, so if you watched it, you can expect more of the same! There is the promise of celebrities guests such as Boy George, Derren Brown, Johnny Vegas, Sue Perkins, Nigella Lawson and Sophie Ellis-Bextor.
Big Sky – Disney+ – From Tuesday, Star
“From Big Little Lies creator David E Kelley… ” We haven’t seen it but if you believe the hype from the man who created “Ally McBeal, Boston Public, Boston Legal, Harry’s Law, Big Little Lies, Mr. Mercedes ” and a few hundred others. This one doesn’t have too many big names attached (Ryan Phillippe doesn’t count as he isn’t famous anymore), but it is part of the new Disney+ section for adults called Star. It’s probably quite watchable but don’t expect too much.
“A private detective teams up with an ex-cop to solve a kidnapping case in Montana”
I Care a Lot – Amazon Prime
A movie that is getting a fair degree of love, with an 81% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
“A crooked legal guardian who drains the savings of her elderly wards meets her match when a woman she tries to swindle turns out to be more than she first appears.”
