Dark Winds
9pm, Alibi
A weatherbeaten crime drama set in Gallup, New Mexico. Zahn McClarnon stars as Joe Leaphorn, a diligent, slightly melancholy Native American cop. After a bank robbery and the murder of two Native Americans, Joe is tasked with sifting through the rubble. But he is faced with a suspicious local community, various vested interests and undercooked new deputy Jim Chee (played by Kiowa Gordon). This series is not without genre cliches, but enough of them work to make it worth a look. Phil Harrison

Midsommar (Ari Aster, 2019), 10.55pm, Film4
Carried out in daylight like its inspiration The Wicker Man, Ari Aster’s grisly horror throws a group of self-centred modern Americans into a weird world of pagan ritual that they are, fatefully, incapable of comprehending. Florence Pugh’s Dani tags along with a group of male friends to an age-old summer solstice festival in rural Sweden. Mourning her dead family and with an unsympathetic boyfriend, Christian (Jack Reynor), she begins to suspect that this mystical community may, bizarrely, be better for her than her old life.
