Tonight's TV tips: Ackley Bridge and Fargo
What to watch and review on Wednesday, June 14.
Ackley Bridge (Channel 4, 8pm) Week two of TV’s weird and unwonderful school for scandal… a kind of Waterloo Road without the laughs but with racism. Headmistress Mandy (Jo Joyner) is less than thrilled after her PE teacher husband punched a problem pupil in the face. The rest of the kids seem to be obsessed with hijabs. Is this anything like life at a real school?
Fargo (Channel 4, 10pm) After two excellent episodes in the frozen wilderness of Minnesota the action switches to sun-kissed Los Angeles, where top cop Gloria Burgle investigates her stepfather’s mysterious sideline as a writer of pot-boiler novels.
