A struggling mum join forces with a recovering addict in brilliant new series The Cage. Plus: a campy Irish murder drama. Hereâs what to watch this evening For his stress-inducing follow-up to gritty police drama The Responder, cop turned screenwriter Tony Schumacher shifts his focus to a chintzy Liverpool casino. Sheridan Smith and Michael Socha star as workers who realise they are both recklessly skimming from the business. She is a stressed single mum trying to keep the family home and he is a semi-recovering addict struggling with gambling, intoxicants and loan sharks. Can they trust each other? The showâs title nods to the cashierâs cage where money and chips are exchanged but Schumacher is clearly more interested in the crushing circumstances trapping his flawed but relatable characters. Graeme Virtue To the secluded Wye valley in Wales, where Robin and his family live in a cottage ânestled in a sea of greenâ. Ironically for a wildlife cameraman, thereâs plenty of it in Robinâs own backyard, only more hidden, from tiny hibernating dormice to badgers, buff-tailed bumblebees and âtrees haunted by tawny owlsâ, all captured with spectacular photography.
