Swan Song

Advertising artist Cameron (Mahershala Ali) is dying and, to spare his wife Poppy (Naomie Harris), who is grieving over the death of her brother, and their young son the anguish of bereavement, embarks on a plan to have himself replaced with a perfect clone, a procedure offered by Glenn Close's Dr Scott.

Ali and Harris are great, and the sci-fi element is subtly done but, inevitably given the subject matter, the film is distinctively downbeat.

Apple TV+, from Friday


Brexit: The Uncivil War 

Terrific one-off drama first shown on Channel 4 in 2019, in which Benedict Cumberbatch plays political strategist Dominic Cummings.

How historically accurate is it?

In The Heights

It's exuberant and uplifting, an old-fashioned song-and-dance show - light on story, heavy on tunes and dance routines.

Sky/NOW, from Friday
