P258 ORACLE 258 Fri20 Dec ANG 1322:51 W FRIDAY 02.00 THERE ONCE WAS A COP (1972) Mireille Darc, Michel Constantin This French thriller casts Constantin as a police inspector on the trail of a big-league drug trafficker. The murder of a drug peddlar in Nice provides him with the clue he needs to get his investigation started. Co-written and directed by Georges Lautner, an expert in the genre, the movie also stars Michel Lonsdale who appeared in The Day Of The Jackal and as the villain of 1979's Moonraker.

P258 ORACLE 258 Fri20 Dec ANG 1321:17 FRIDAY 10.55 DISNEY'S THE SWORD AND THE ROSE (1953) Glynis Johns, Richard Todd A lively Disney Technicolor version of history which happily takes liberties with the facts. It tells the story of Mary Tudor, Johns, and her determination to marry adventurous commoner Todd which, of course, happens as James Robertson Justice, Henry VIII, plays Cupid. The action, romance and humour are well directed, Todd acts acceptably and Michael Gough makes a splendid villain.

P258 ORACLE 258 Fri20 Dec ANG 1322:33 W SATURDAY 00.05 THE SHINING (1980) Jack Nicholson, Shelley Duvall Nicholson gets a job as caretaker at an out of season resort hotel and descends into chilling homicidal madness in this taut version of Stephen King's shocker. Stanley Kubrick's vivid style and total control of the melodramatic plot create an exciting and superior horror film with a powerful, cumulative impact. Nicholson gives a mesmerising over-the- a far less showy role, Duvall is terrific. (Alan Frank) more follows > TV Plus 250Advertising 270ITV Today TV Guide What's On Adverts
P258 ORACLE 258 Fri20 Dec ANG 1311:55 W SATURDAY 02.45 THE GUMBALL RALLY (1976) Michael Sarrazin, Gary Busey Motorised mayhem of the no holds barred variety, later ripped off in the Cannonball Run comedies. This was the first - and best - with funny characters, great cartoon-style action, good stunts and fast-paced Sit back and enjoy the zany antics of the drivers vying for glory in a race from New York to California. Raul Julia steals the show as a lecherous Italian. (Alan Frank) more follows > TV Plus 250Advertising 270
