Mr. Rubberman
9pm, BBC One
A beautiful film adaptation of Bernardine Evaristo's best-selling novel about a 74-year-old Caribbean immigrant who has been in a secret homosexual relationship for most of his life. Barrington “Barry” Walker (Lennie James) is a witty, independent man with a family with his wife, Carmel (Sharon D. Clark). She knows that her husband is having an affair, but she does not know that it is with his best friend Morris (Aryon Bakare). Will Barry be able to live his truth in a conservative and judgmental community? This story unfolds over eight emotional, nuanced, and sometimes very funny episodes. The Sunday lunch scene, where one minute it's a gag about Oxford and the next minute it's cutting through homophobia, is a perfect example. Holly Richardson
