You can look forward to the fresh season of Pilgrimage, the exciting live eviction episode of Celebrity Big Brother, another gripping installment of the suspenseful series The Feud, and the BBC One premiere of Just Act Normal, the comedic BBC Three show that will make you laugh while also tugging at your heartstrings.
As a movie buff, weekends can’t get any better than Saturdays when I find myself glued to my screen, ready to immerse myself in a day full of thrilling snooker matches, heart-pounding rugby games, exhilarating horse races, and the Women’s Six Nations tournament. The anticipation is electric!
Besides the numerous family-friendly movies set to grace our screens, there’s an array of choices that we can’t wait to enjoy together.
In addition to cherished classics such as Matilda, Lightyear, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, and Dumbo, you can also catch movies like Bullet Train, Creed, Priscilla, and The Silence of the Lambs on screen as well.
