Terminator 2: Judgment Day, Saturday the 29^th of March, ITV1 10:10pm

With the success of The Sarah Connor Chronicles on Virgin 1, it was only a matter of time before one of the TV networks got round to broadcasting the best Terminator movie of the bunch – Five showed T3 last month, but we won’t go there.

The film, which cleverly plays with the character roles of the first Terminator move sees future governor Arnie inadvertently trashing urban California as he fights to protect future resistance leader John Connor from the molten metal melty T-1000 assassin, played by a pointy-eared Robert Patrick. 

The movie is also notable for the pioneering use of CGI, which, despite the film being well over a decade old does not look hackneyed or obtrusive, which is more than can be said for more recent releases. T2 is also broadcast post watershed on ITV1, so we should get to see the nuclear annihilation of the playground scene in all its bone-liquefying glory.

Judgment Day is this Saturday the 29^th of March at 10:10pm (ITV1).
