THE CATHERINE TATE SHOW
Do not adjust your set - you can see British comedienne Catherine Tate on two different channels at the same time tonight which, if nothing else, will give us a chance to compare her earlier series with her most recent stuff.

STAR STORIES
Tonight's celebrity couple getting the spoof treatment is Mr and Mrs Madonna, with Guy Ritchie presenting his latest film The Wife's Life, his own biopic of the Material Gal's rise to pop icon, possibly featuring deleted scenes from Swept Away, the movie which should have persuaded both never to work together.

THE OMEN
Herald Rating: * * *
Remake of the classic 1976 fright-flick about a child raised by an American diplomat, who bears the number of the beast. In the role, which was made famous by Gregory Peck, Liev Schreiber plays Robert Thorn, the US Ambassador to Britain. It pretty much sticks to the formula, with skewered priests, decapitations and Mia Farrow as the Satan-following nanny. (2006)

CHOPPER
Herald Rating: * * * *
The story of Mark "Chopper" Read (Eric Bana), the notorious Australian criminal who wrote his semi-fictional autobiography From the Inside while serving a jail sentence in prison. Often brutal and always fascinating. (2000)
