SWAT - Virgin Media One - 10pm An imprisoned drug kingpin (Olivier Martizen) offers a huge cash reward to anyone that can break him out of police custody, and only the L.A.P.D.'s Special Weapons and Tactics (including Colin Farrell, Samuel L. Jackson, Michelle Rodriguez, and LL Cool J) team can prevent it. Drive Angry - Comedy Central - 11pm A vengeful father (Nicolas Cage) escapes from hell and chases after the men who killed his daughter and kidnapped his granddaughter (Amber Heard). When Harry Met Sally - BBC One - 11.20pm Harry (Billy Crystal) and Sally (Meg Ryan) have known each other for years, and are very good friends, but they fear sex would ruin the friendship. End Of Watch - BBC Two - 11.20pm Shot documentary-style, this film follows the daily grind of two young police officers (Jake Gyllenhaal and Michael Pena) in LA who are partners and friends, and what happens when they meet criminal forces greater than themselves.
