ITVX's latest offering, The Hunting Wives, has captivated UK audiences with its tantalisingly trashy plot. Starring Brittany Snow and Malin Akerman, the series follows Margo Banks, a horny, mouthy, margarita-guzzling matriarch in Maple Brook, Texas, who takes Sophie O'Neil under her wing. As the drama unfolds, it emerges that Margo knows her way around guns, while Sophie is not as innocent as she appears. A murder adds to the mix, making this trash TV at its very best.
The series has been praised for its ludicrously fun and horny storyline, drawing viewers into the steamy world of the hunting wives. With its blend of suspense and scandal, the show has quickly become a must-watch for fans of US dramas.
In addition to The Hunting Wives, tonight's TV lineup includes a Kirsty Wark-hosted tribute to lost famous people, featuring Reese Witherspoon, Ralph Fiennes, and others remembering Robert Redford, Gene Hackman, and Diane Keaton. There's also a documentary narrated by Hugh Bonneville on the scenic Bergen Line train route in Norway, and a programme where Judi Dench delves into her family's possible connection to Shakespeare.
Other highlights include the third series of a cruise crime drama set in Alicante, a Wes Anderson film with a starry cast, and a double bill of Elvis biopics. Sports fans can enjoy Premier League football, darts, horse racing, rugby, and test cricket.
