Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.THE PREMISE for Stella Street (9pm UK Play, right), John Sessions' and Phil Cornwell's impressionistic comedy, is that stars such as Jack Nicholson, Joe Pesci, Al Pacino and Jimmy Hill are all neighbours in a London suburb. Sessions as Keith Richards and Cornwell as Mick Jagger even run their own shop. After a critically acclaimed run on BBC2, satellite viewers can share in the absurdist humour from tonight.
Meanwhile, La Reine Margot (10pm FilmFour), a bloody tale of murder and betrayal among 16th-century costumed French aristocrats, premieres. Isabelle Adjani and Daniel Auteil are both excellent in a lively tale set around the St Batholomew's day massacre of 1572.
The US Open Tennis (2pm Sky Sports 2) continues with Greg Rusedski hopefully still in line for a place in the final.
