Storyville, Revenge: Our Dad the Nazi Killer
10pm, BBC Four
The BBC’s brilliant documentary strand returns with another remarkable story beautifully told: three Australian brothers investigate whether their uncle and beloved late father, who were both Holocaust survivors, killed former Nazis who fled to Australia after the war. It includes interviews with their father, Boris Green – “A partisan is a partisan,” is his reply when asked if he shot Nazis – and a wider examination of the “war going on after the war”.

Tell Me Lies

Family tensions arise after these college kids go home for holidays. While “I blame the parents” doesn’t adequately explain everything that’s annoying about Lucy (Grace Van Patten) and Stephen (Jackson White), their tepid entanglement does heat up a little in the second episode, when caddish Stephen is confronted about his stale seduction technique.

Train to Busan (Yeon Sang-ho, 2016), Netflix
Netflix’s recent data dump revealed the immense global popularity of South Korean output, so it makes sense that the streaming service would bring us the country’s all-time greatest horror film. Train to Busan is a zombie movie set on a high-speed train heading from Seoul to the titular seaside city. The beauty of this film is how compact it is. There is a train. The train is full of zombies. What do you do? A hurtling, propulsive, action-packed and genuinely terrifying film, Train to Busan is an absolute classic of the genre. Stuart Heritage
