BRATS

Who better to examine the 80s phenomenon that was the Brat Pack, the group of young actors who frequently appeared together in coming-of-age films, than one of them: Andrew McCarthy?

McCarthy, better known now as a travel writer, novelist and director, talks to fellow former Packers Emilio Estevez, Rob Lowe, Demi Moore, Ally Sheedy, Leah Thompson, Timothy Hutton and Jon Cryer about how it impacted their lives and careers. Others, including Molly Ringwald, Judd Nelson and Anthony Michael Hall, declined to take part.

END OF SUMMER

BBC4, 9pm & 9.55pm

Don’t be fooled by the sunny setting; this Swedish mystery is as dark as Nordic noir comes. In 1984, a five-year-old boy called Billy disappears from the family farm. Years later, his now adult sister Vera (Julia Ragnarsson) is a psychiatrist who hosts grief therapy sessions.

When a young man called Isak (Erik Enge) joins the group and starts talking about how he’s been having strange memories from his childhood since learning he was adopted, Vera wonders if he knows something about Billy’s disappearance — or if he could even be him.

Sunday

THE TURKISH DETECTIVE

BBC2, 9pm

English crime writer Barbara Nadel has written 25 novels since 1999 about Istanbul detective Cetin Ikmen and his team, but this six-part thriller is the first time the character has been portrayed on screen.

Young British detective Mehmet Suleyman (Ethan Kai) arrives in the city, having transferred from the London Met, to join the homicide unit led by the eccentric Inspector Ikmen (Haluk Bilginer) and immediately joins the investigation into the murder of a university student. Continuing tomorrow, this could become a favourite with viewers.

PAVAROTTI IN HYDE PARK

BBC4, 8.25pm

As the centrepiece of an evening of Pavarotti, Katherine Jenkins recalls the 1991 outdoor concert by the world’s best-known tenor. The stars — Michael Caine, Charles and Diana, Andrew Lloyd Webber — showed up. So, unfortunately, did the rain, which bucketed down throughout the show.

GUY MARTIN’S LOST WW2 BOMBER

Channel 4, 9pm

Guy Martin joins the effort to recover the bodies of three crew members of a Lancaster bomber shot down over the vast Lake IJssel in the Netherlands in 1943. It’s a hugely ambitious feat of engineering that involves building a dam in the lake to isolate the wreckage.

IBIZA NARCOS

Sky Documentaries, 9pm

Believe it or not, Ibiza was once considered a counterculture idyll for harmless hippies who just wanted a place to go and smoke a bit of weed in peace.

This three-parter from the people behind Liverpool Narcos and Dublin Narcos traces how the arrival of pills and organised crime transformed the island into the clubs ‘n’ drugs capital of the world it is today.
