her ill-tempered father Aubrey
(David Troughton from ‘The
Archers’) from whom she is as
distant as ever. As Clover retreats
into the daily farming routine,
the murky cloud of uncertainty
hanging over what happened to

(Peter Mullan) and "Young" Tommy
Morris, the dynamic father-son
team who ushered in the modern

father’s success, Tommy’s talent and

accomplishments and respect as
founder of the Open Championship
in 1860 with a series of his own
triumphs. As their fame grows, both
lives are touched by drama and
personal tragedy.
It’s the return of the loveable Gru,
Margo, Edith and Agnes (and the

Gru faces off against Balthazar Bratt,
a former child star who has grown up
to become obsessed with the character
that he played in the '80s, and gets
into some sibling rivalry when he meets
his long-lost charming, cheerful, and
more successful twin brother Dru.
Berlin, 1940. Working class couple
Otto and Anna Quangel (Brendan

his life in the battlefield and decide
to resist the Nazi regime in their very
own way. Soon the Gestapo is aware
of the resistance and is determined to
hunt them down. 
Comedy drama based
on Fredrik Backman's
best-selling novel about
an ill-tempered, isolated
retiree who spends his days
enforcing block association
rules and visiting his wife's
grave. Things change,
however, when he meets
pregnant new neighbour
Parvaneh and her boisterous
family. Can they see past that
gruff exterior and find the
heart of the man called Ove?
Mystery thriller based on the
Daphne Du Maurier novel.
A young Englishman (Sam

cousin (played by Rachel
Weisz), believing that she
