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.THE CATCHLINE to Alien was "In space, no one can hear you scream," but that might just as easily apply to Event Horizon (10pm Sky Premier), which receives its satellite premiere tonight. In Paul Anderson's unsettling, special-effects-laden sci-fi film, Laurence Fishburne (right) leads a mission - with Sam Neill and Kathleen Quinlan - to board the Event Horizon, a deep-space vessel that has been missing for several years.
To many youngsters Jimmy Hill is just a football pundit with a talent to annoy. But to earlier generations, he was a very influential figure - as this profile for Playback (10pm History Channel) shows. As a player, he helped break the maximum wage for players (and indirectly aided today's superstars towards their huge pay-packets). He went on to become a successful manager, chairman and referee.
