Most excellent… Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter in Bill & Ted Face the Music. Photography: Most Excellent Productions LLC

Bill & Ted Face the Music (Dean Parisot, 2020) Sky Cinema Premiere, 9:30 a.m., 8 p.m.
With the same writers as the original films, Dean Parisot passionately revisits rock dudes (Alex Winter and Keanu Reeves) – now with additional girls – is familiar but fun. The plot that travels through time and saves the universe isn’t much of a jerk, but it’s really great to see them again. Simon wardell
