Big Night In: All the unmissable TV and movies you should watch this weekend

It’s almost the weekend, which means one of two things: 1) You will be going out ‘on the lash’, or 2) You will be staying in and ‘watching TV’. I offer no judgement for either choice - really, you just do you, and don’t let anyone put you down. 

I personally think a happy medium between the two is preferable - a big night out pouring pints over your head on the Friday night, then a cocooned evening lamenting life-choices in front of the TV on Saturday night. Or vice versa. 

But I’m not bothered about your booze-swilling antics here (I mean, I actually am, please invite me), instead I’m going to chucking a few film and TV recommendations your way for the Big Night In. So pull that duvet over the big scab on your chin and clap your peepers on these bangers:

New at ‘The Pictures’

  1. 1.'Battle Of The Sexes'

New on Netflix

  1. 1.'Horns'

  2. 2.'The Martian'

  3. 3.'She's Gotta Have It'

On the good old-fashioned idiot box

Sunday

Tuesday

  1. 1.'The Robot Will See You Now'

    Would you trust a robot therapist? I wouldn’t, because I wouldn’t trust a robot anything (they will all kill us imminently), but it appears that some people would. This documentary follows a deceptively cute robot called Jess, who uses AI to interpret speech and offer advice in return. Presumably that advice is:“##**PUT YOUR FINGER IN THIS HOLE, I PROMISE I WILL NOT HARM YOU, HUMAN**##”and then you do, and then it has your DNA, and then humanity ends.On Channel 4 at 10pm
