What to watch and review: The Young Pope, The Fall and The Apprentice
What to watch and review on Thursday, October 27.
The Apprentice (BBC1, 9pm) The worst-ever idiots screw up the retail task as they take over part of London’s famous department store Liberty and then try to be personal shoppers. Three questions. How many tycoons need personal shopping skills? Why is this underperforming series causing so much controversy? Is it because the candidates are even more ridiculously stupid than usual? Yes.
The Fall (BBC2, 9pm) In the penultimate episode whispering detective Stella (Gillian Anderson) and serial killer Spector (Jamie Dornan) face each other in the interrogation room again. And the tense stand-off sets the scene for tomorrow night’s explosive finale.
The Young Pope (Sky Atlantic, 9pm) New drama starring Jude Law as the fictional Pope Pius XIII, America’s first pontiff. As His Holiness prepares to take Rome by storm there may be trouble ahead.
