american we look ahead to sunday's american football with four teams, one win away from the super bowl. that is coming up at 6.30. now it is time for hells. and welcemgte= to take us through this week's so mark, what do we have this week? it isa it is a very mixed bunch. we have glass the new film by m night shyamalan. mary queen of scot, a modern historical drama. and beautiful - a modern historical drama. and beautiful- a tale of torn apart by a so, let us start off with glass, a superhero film with a difference. yes it is the latest from snipe he

seem who scored a huge success with sixth sense. then is a sequel that brings together characters from split and from unbreakable which is from 2000, you may not have seen, because although critics and fans think it is his best film it wasn't seen by that many people so it concerns a trio of characters who come to believe that they have powers which are reminiscent of superhero powers. bruce willis is david dunn who survived a train crash, and thinks he's is indestructible. james mcavoy from split, he is inhabited by a hoard of different personality, who are awaiting the arrival of the beast and samuel ljackson, he is mr glass, who is fragile on the outside, but brilliant of mind and they are brought together, in this psychiatric facility, here miss patricia says that your bones can break if i like tap them, is that true? yes. so what's your super power?

your mind? what's mine? you're nine forever, right? yeah. that's incredible. you can see the world the way it really is, always. a kid who can never grow old. huh. are you ready? yeah. the thing with the film, is they ride a very thin line between clever and stupid. you can do with it or say sorry, i'm not buying this. i did buy this, and i really enjoyed it as did buy this, and i really enjoyed itasa did buy this, and i really enjoyed it as a result, one of the things liked about it is, there is a remange of breastless that people sneer at and i understand why they

do, but it is is a great film. there are many discussions about the philosophical implication of the silver surfer. it takes that stuff seriously but playfully. in the case of this it is taking the idea that comic books are representations of things that may exist in the real world. it is refers to films like shot corridor shutter islands which are fanciful and foolish but are good fun. i went with it. that said icame good fun. i went with it. that said i came out of the screening and a couple of people, they said i didn't get that at all. i did. it think it ism get that at all. i did. it think it is m night shyamalan's best film since sign, you will find this to be a satisfying follow up to unbreakable. people will wonder what is going on, but i really enjoyed this and i really didn't ecs expect to. unbreakable glass. mary queen of scot, we have had the favourite, a royal historical drama and now we

have mary, queen of scots which is the, based on the life of mary stuart and her rivalry with elizabeth. saoirse ronan and margot robbie rivals to the throne. it is a modern take, it is a film of juxtaposition, so you have monarchs and prisoner, english, scottish, and men and women, and the two, the two central performances are basically, they are balanced against each other, so mary says i will be the woman she cannot b i will produce an heir, unlike her barren self. elizabeth says good wants a woman to bea elizabeth says good wants a woman to be a wife and mother, i will choose to bea be a wife and mother, i will choose to be a man. she refers to one of the male counterparts at the closest thing i have to a wife. so the #ici79 is very witty and well done, and you have this terrific central performances but the rest of the ensemble cast is really well played.

people like david tennant doing terrific work, the film has a paint early look to it. it is directed by josie rourke who comes from theatre. something normally doesn't gel but this felt very cinematic, there is one scene, one scene which i thought 0k, one scene, one scene which i thought ok, this scene would have worked better on stage but with exception of that i felt like it was a lusty drama, really well told. wonderful swirling score, which comes out of the hills, and again ir, i went in thinking, i very much admire the performance, but i was really won over by it and i thought it was funny and witty and it had really good central thesis of the opposites andi good central thesis of the opposites and i thought it was enjoyable. my editor who studied history pointed out they meet in film but in real life, but they never met. this is the one scene and what happens is, they meet amid billowing sheets that come between them, and again, i

think, on stage, yes, on screen, not so think, on stage, yes, on screen, not so much. beautiful boy, in which a father helps his son overcome addiction. tries to, so it is based on memoirs by david and nic sheff. david is played by steve carrell. he diss his son is addicted to crystal meth. timothee chalamet is nic. their relationship falls apart. here is is why don't we just have lunch and talk, we can do that, right? how's karen and the kids? 0k, they're asking about you. i know they'd love... you're guilt tripping me, all right. no, i'mjust saying... i feel horrible about myself. i know they wanted you to be there, that's all. i'm sorry dad, ijust need some

money, all right, so, please just give me some money. where does this end? i have to see something through, this is kind of working out for me right now, i've got five days sober. it doesn't look it's working out. oh, it doesn't look like it's working out? so what, the therapy? you can come home, we'll make it work, please, nick. please. the thing with this although it is based on the two sides of the stories we see it very much from the father's point of view and there are certain things about the film that creek, the story telling is straight forward , creek, the story telling is straight forward, the music cues are on the nose, they tell you what to think about this scene or that scene. at the be givening we see the father asking a doctor tell me what the drugs doing so we get an eggs explanation, he goes into his son's room and are certain things about the film that creek, the story

telling is straight forward, the music cues are on the nose, they tell you what to think about this scene or that scene. at the be givening we see the father asking a doctor tell me what the drugs doing so we doctor tell me what the drugs doing so we get an eggs explanation, he goes into his son's room and finds a notebook spelling out "this is what iam notebook spelling out "this is what i am feeling. i found notebook spelling out "this is what i am feeling. ifound it notebook spelling out "this is what i am feeling. i found it very moving. ifound i am feeling. i found it very moving. i found the i am feeling. i found it very moving. ifound the parents‘ i am feeling. i found it very moving. i found the parents‘ sense of he doesn't moving. i found the parents‘ sense of | he doesnvt;:;g;gei;;; j filfffjfi : , moving. i found the parents‘ sense o was -;:,:;:-:,,- level; : 5517: i i , moving. i found the parents‘ sense o was -§,i;:,:, it's evel; : 5517: i i , moving. i found the parents‘ sense o was -§,i;:,:, it's a el; : 5517: i 5 moving. i found the parents‘ sense o was truernff it's a el; : 5517: i i , moving. i found the parents‘ sense o was truer if ‘* it's a el; : 5517: i i , moving. i found the parents‘ sense o was truer |f‘* are a el; iii—1175: : , film that rings truer if you are fussty and g like i film that rings truer if you are fussty and g like me and you are, fussty and old like me and you are, i would need somebody to lead me by the hand, the performances are very very sincere, i think the film—making itself is rather on the nose and i can understand some people thinking it is cliched but it got to me and i, it there was a couple of moments when i found myself tearing up. it works on an emotional level. i do understand the cliche argument but it did get to me emotionally. by the way you are not old or fusty. thank you. maybe you are. best out? stan and olly. we did that last week i said at the time

these are troubled times and how great to have a film like stan and 0lly we will leave you with a spring if your step and song in your heart. it has great performances from shirley henderson and nina who play the wives, and the two double acts for the price of one. have you seen this yet? not yet. it is such a lovely film. what worries you? i'm not that interested in stan and 0lly. not that interested in stan and olly. you don't have to be, you have to be interested in laugh, and it very interesting about the politics of film—making and the ways we have hall roach, being controlling, i guarantee, believe me, trust me on this one, you would really like it. i have trusted you before? have i ever elet you down? 0nce or twice. best dvd? i went into this, you know, not knowing much about it, being suspicious because i thought it would be like sex and the city,

it would be like sex and the city, it wasn't. it was charming and funny, i have a rule about comedy it has to make you laugh six times to qualify as comedy, i do literally count the amount of times i laugh until i get to six and then i go fine, this is a comedy. this is properly a comedy, it is touching, moving, about an asian american woman who finds out the truth about her phone say‘s family and it swept me up ina her phone say‘s family and it swept me up in a way that having seen the trailer and having seen the poster, i thought i am just not going to get involved in this. it doesn't look like a film for me but i was charmed by it. i thought it was very funny. it must be strange sitting next to you during a comedy watching how many times you laugh.|j you during a comedy watching how many times you laugh. i don't write it down on the a pad, but then, yes, iam sure it down on the a pad, but then, yes, i am sure it is strange sitting next to me ina i am sure it is strange sitting next to me in a cinema. for a number of reasons. thank you very much mark. that is it for this week, thank you so that is it for this week, thank you so much for watching, goodbye from both of us. good evening. it feels like winter

has kicked in to gear today, it has been pretty chilly out there and for some, there has been a bit of snow, this is how it looks in staffordshi re this is how it looks in staffordshire earlier on today, for one of our weather watcher, much earlier on first thing, temperatures well below freezing across many partings of the uk and into that cold air we have brought this frontal system, so yes, we have had rain but as it has run into the cold air it has produced sleet and cold air. this is - sort of weather will the first ‘ the 29541? and of in dry 4,51, w, 9:57? i "ii”?. t," . of if: dry 45—7 , clear spell, 7'77 5 ”1771 7” ' up , odd but the wales, the ,, , we we see rain, - and milan“ the snow mostly over high

snow—thesnewrmostly'everrhigiz-r some it ground, some to low levels, it is rain in the south—west because here it is that bit milder and then as we go through tonight, we just continue to see these areas of cloud, patchy rain, some flakes of sleet and snow mixed in, and wejust push it all a bit further eastwards, so much so most of us will have cloudy skies so it won't be as cold as last night. there could be a few icy stretches in northern areas where temperatures dip to close to orjust below freezing. tomorrow an uninspiring looking day, lots of cloud overhead. patchy light rain and drizzle. best chance of sunshine in northern scotland, the highest temperatures in the south—west, everywhere else it's that grey, sometimes damp and rather chilly weather, a subtle change by sunday, because we develop a little area of low pressure here, a little area of low pressure here, a small feature but introduced more ofan a small feature but introduced more of an easterly drift across the country, so, what that means is the cloud will break up, we have drier aircoming into the

cloud will break up, we have drier air coming into the picture, so we should see more in the way of sunshine as we go into sunday. this weather front bringing cloud and patchy rain, hill snow the north, temperatures struggling, 5—8 degrees and then we head into next week, well, this chart shows that things are going to stay unsettled. we will see further frontal system coming in. low pressure in charge and with that we stay in the cold air, later in the week it looks like likely we will switch the wind direction to a north—easterly, this is a recipe for really chilly weather across the uk as we go through next week and yes for some there is likely to be a little the duke of edinburgh went to hospitalfor a check—up after yesterday's car crash in norfolk. doctors said he had no injuries of concern. a 9—month—old baby in the other vehicle wasn't hurt, but two women suffered minor injuries. the prince was left shocked, and shaken. that was the first time i saw his face and i realised that

i was holding the duke of edinburgh. police say they're investigating, and will take any appropriate action. we'll have the very lastest from the scene. also on the programme: pharamacists warn of a shortage of some basic drugs, including painkillers and anti depressents. three men have beenjailed for life for murdering five people in an explosion in leicester, as part of an insurance scam. not so sweet on the high street... who's up or down, in the battle for shoppers?
