Pick of the Day
WHAT BETTER way to wake you up from your post-Christmas stupor than with a bracing bite from a shark? The shark theme runs through the evening on Discovery. Highlights include: Shark Island (6.30pm); Wilder Discovery: Zambezi Shark (8pm); Hammerheads (9pm); Jaws in the Med (10pm); and Sharks: the Real Story (11pm).
Further thrills and spills are provided by Independence Day (8pm Sky Premier). Perhaps the biggest budget B-movie of all time, this huge box- office hit features Bill Pullman as the President, Will Smith (right) as a pilot and Jeff Goldblum as a scientist. They all club together to fight off aliens trying to take over the world. The real star of the show, however, is the dazzling special effects team who have a field day with the aerial battle between good and evil.
