What To Watch This Week: 16.06.26

The Light in the Hall: Still Waters, Channel 4

A brooding return to Llanemlyn, this atmospheric drama follows Caryl (Sian Reese-Williams), who is attempting a midlife reset as she retrains as a journalist. But her new path quickly pulls her into far more complicated territory when she becomes fixated on Rhys Owen (Mark Lewis Jones), a man newly released after three decades in prison for the murder of his activist cousin. As Caryl digs deeper, it becomes clear her interest isn’t purely professional – and that both their histories are more entwined with the town’s present than they first appear.

Train-ing It With Joe Wilkinson, Channel 4

Joe Wilkinson’s cult online format gets a TV upgrade, but the charm remains firmly intact. The concept is disarmingly simple: a train journey, a celebrity guest, and nowhere to hide. What starts as a low-pressure chat quickly opens up into something looser and more unexpected, with humour and honesty surfacing in equal measure between stops. Guests this time include Wet Leg’s Rhian Teasdale, heading home to the Isle of Wight, and Nick Mohammed, en route to Liverpool.
