Pavarotti plus Satellite Q&A
From the team behind the worldwide success The Beatles: Eight Days a Week comes two-time Academy Award® winning director Ron Howard's documentary celebrating the life of the beloved opera star Luciano Pavarotti, who sold over 100 million records in his lifetime. Created from a combination of Luciano Pavarotti's genre-redefining performances and granted access to never-before-seen footage, the film will give audiences around the world a stunningly intimate portrait of the most beloved opera singer of all time. This live event will also include exclusive content which will not be included in the main theatrical release.
Late Night
Comedy drama about legendary late-night talk show host Katherine Newbury (Emma Thompson) who, after years of complacency and declining ratings, finds her show is on the network’s chopping block. Katherine’s world is turned upside down when she hires her first female staff writer, Molly Patel (Mindy Kaling) who brings fresh eyes and an honest perspective. Katherine’s decision has unexpectedly hilarious consequences, as her show is upended by Molly’s passionate, unapologetic, at times outright bizarre approach to comedy and to life.

Baby Friendly, 10.30am Wed 3 July
The recent Oscar-winning success of Bohemian Rhapsody, the biopic of rock legend Freddie Mercury, sets the bar high for Rocketman, a similar tale of mould-breaking musical success against the odds, this time spotlighting the early years in the career of Elton John. But the omens are good – the unforgettable music, an outstanding star turn by Taron Egerton as Elton and the safe directorial hands of Dexter Fletcher, who brought us The Proclaimers’ musical Sunshine On Leith and served as uncredited director for Bohemian Rhapsody after the original director stepped down.
