Our TV movie pick for tonight (Saturday, 22 June) is The Long Good Friday, the classic British gangster flick from 1980.

Set in the late 1970s, it follows Harold Shand – an English gangster trying to become a legitimate property mogul who has big plans to get the American mafia to bankroll his transformation of a derelict area of London into a possible venue for a future Olympic Games.

Convinced there is a traitor in his organisation, Shand sets out to eliminate the rat in typically ruthless fashion. Indeed, the movie’s great performances, gritty depiction of late ’70s London and unforgettable closing scene have made it a classic in the gangster movie sub-genre.Armageddon – Film4 – 9pm
