Charlie Chaplin

An award-winning documentary team scrupulously unpick the cinema icon's legacy. Plus: a week of jubilee-themed TV kicks off with Secrets of the Queen's ...

Intellect battles with emotion as Caleb is drawn to the beautiful, seemingly vulnerable robot, while the ethics of creating (and destroying) sentient life are brought viscerally to the fore. The last in the current run of the well-crafted Swedish procedural skews dark but there are still flashes of offbeat humour. Things kick off with this documentary, showing rare colour footage of what went on behind the scenes and out on the streets during the coronation. Andrew Parker Bowles – ex-husband of Camilla, and former page boy to the Queen – also shares memories. Another documentary about a global figure whose fall from grace left a controversial legacy – Charlie Chaplin’s life is scrupulously unpicked, from his start in the Victorian slums to a Hollywood career that became shrouded with accusations of sexual misconduct and communist sympathies. Like it or not, there is a lot of jubilee-themed TV on the way.
