Then You Run
9pm, Sky Max

Der Pass
9pm, Sky Atlantic
The Austro-German noir bearing a passing resemblance to Scandi epic The Bridge continues, in a passably twisty manner, to pursue yet another serial killer. This one has a terrifying taste for torture. It’s rare that a traffic accident qualifies as a stroke of luck but, this week, a motorbike smash on a mountain leads detectives Ellie and Gedeon to a spot in the woods that quickly seems very pertinent to their investigation. Phil Harrison

Film choice
The Departed (Martin Scorsese, 2006), 9pm, Film4
Martin Scorsese’s only Oscar win so far came with this intense 2006 thriller adapted from the Hong Kong film Infernal Affairs. Matt Damon and Leonardo DiCaprio play two sides of the same coin – one a cocky kid groomed by Jack Nicholson’s Irish mobster Frank Costello to join the cops and be his inside man; the other an edgy police recruit sent deep undercover to infiltrate Costello’s crew. It’s a deliciously stressful situation, as the subterfuge creates identity crises for both, with Damon and DiCaprio giving contrasting performances of equal skill. Simon Wardell
