Operation Sealion was Hitler’s name for what we

call the Battle of Britain – an air assault on the

country designed to terrorise it into submission. That mighty

attack, and even mightier response, is broken down in this

episode of the fascinating series, using digital colourisation

to breathe new life into old footage. HHHHSM

● FILM / 10.20pm / Sky Premiere

PREMIERE

Kicking off as a rip-roaring World War Two

men-on-a-mission yarn, this opens up into a

wildly entertaining full-on zombie-horror mash-up. US

good guys Jovan Adepo (last seen as Denzel Washington’s

son in Fences) and Wyatt Russell (son of Kurt Russell and

Goldie Hawn) attempt to help besieged French villagers

by taking on the evils of the Third Reich. But they have

no idea what the Nazis have been cooking up. HHHHNP

Matt and Luke Goss

reunite for a night

of Bros-tastic telly

● ENTERTAINMENT /

from 10pm / BBC4

NEW

Following on

from Duran

Duran and Keith

Richards, Bros stage their own

BBC4 takeover, controlling

the channel’s output for the

night. Which brave soul

allowed this to happen?! Apart

from tuning in to see if they

can last the night without a

bust-up, we’re looking forward

to watching Luke and Matt

interview celebrity guests,

perform live and look back at

the TV, films and music that

inspired them growing up.

Lots of details are still under

wraps, but the brothers

promise a night that’s relaxed

and fun. We can’t wait! The

brilliant documentary Bros:

After the Screaming Stops

follows at 11.30pm. HHHHEB
