Tom Hiddleston, This Country, Certain Women, Gustav Metzger remembered

Tom Hiddleston on Kong: Skull Island; Charlie and Daisy May Cooper on Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ3's This Country; Certain Women reviewed; Gustav Metzger remembered.

Tom Hiddleston stars in the latest outing for Kong. We speak to the actor about the giant ape, mega fans and his media intrusion into his private life.

We remember artist Gustav Metzger, the hugely influential pioneer of "auto-destructive art" who has died aged 90. Critics Richard Cork and Hans Ulrich Obrist discuss his work, activism and continued influence on art.

Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Three's mockumentary This Country explores the lives of young people in modern rural Britain, focusing on cousins Kerry and Lee 'Kurtan' Mucklowe, written and performed by real-life siblings Daisy May and Charlie Cooper. They discuss the origins of this word-of-mouth hit comedy.

Laura Dern, Michelle Williams and Kristen Stewart star in Kelly Reichardt's study in northerly melancholy Certain Women. Antonia Quirke reviews.
