Satellite and Cable: Pick of the Day
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.IT MAY BE hard to recall now, but there was a time before Four Weddings and a Funeral when Hugh Grant (right) was just another floppy-haired posh young British actor. He stars with James Wilby and Rupert Graves in Maurice (10.15pm FilmFour), James Ivory's version of the semi-autobiographical novel by EM Forster, which was only published posthumously because of its provocative content. They play three men struggling to come to terms with their homosexuality in the repressive climate of Edwardian Britain.
Michael Douglas is a rare example of a Hollywood child who has lived up to the standards set by a celebrity parent. His career - which includes an Oscar-winning performance as the reptilian financier Gordon Gekko in Wall Street - is charted in today's Action Heroes (2.15pm Sky Moviemax).
