Weekend viewing

 Our top picks to watch this weekend include a long-awaited action-packed adventure, a crime thriller and a riveting family drama.

Here’s what you need to know: An MI6 super-spy is back with a new mission to rescue a kidnapped scientist… which turns out to be more dangerous than expected; a troubled police detective, demoted to 911 operator duty, scrambles to save a distressed caller during a harrowing day of revelations; and the relationship of an entrepreneur and his family is tested when they move into an English country manor.

In No Time To Die, Bond has left active service and is enjoying a tranquil life in Jamaica. His peace is short-lived when his old friend Felix Leiter from the CIA turns up asking for help. The mission to rescue a kidnapped scientist turns out to be far more treacherous than expected, leading Bond onto the trail of a mysterious villain armed with dangerous new technology. Now showing at a cinema near you.

The Guilty takes place over the course of a single morning in a 911 dispatch call centre. Call operator Joe Baylor (Jake Gyllenhaal) tries to save a caller in grave danger-but he soon discovers that nothing is as it seems, and facing the truth is the only way out. Watch it on Netflix.

Is there any hope for Rory and Allison? That’s the question at the heart of “The Nest,” a wrenching, beautiful drama about a married couple who relocate from upstate New York to a drafty old estate near London, where their union unravels. Catch The Nest on Showmax.
