Pick of the Day
RTÉ Investigates: Christian Brothers - The Assets, the Abusers, 9.35pm, RTÉ One
Streaming on RTÉ Player
After last year's Scoping Inquiry predicted a vast scale of historical child sexual abuse in Irish schools, and recommended redress for victims, the Christian Brothers stood out with the largest number of schools and the highest number of allegations.
As a new wave of victims prepare to seek justice for abuse suffered in schools, RTÉ Investigates reporter Rita O'Reilly examines what the Christian Brothers order owns, how it's handled property and school lands, and how convicted abusers previously helped manage its assets.
Victims' representatives say they are deeply concerned following discoveries by RTÉ Investigates that child abusers inside the religious congregation were at the heart of its leadership, managing its financial and business affairs in recent decades.

All of them will approach the show with hope in their hearts, while one will dance away pretending to be humble in the face of their truly incredible victory.

The Four Seasons, Netflix
Please, let this be good.
It’s a comedy, adapted by Tina Fey from a 1981 film of the same name, starring Alan Alda – who also makes a cameo appearance here.
Six old friends head for a relaxing weekend away only to learn that one couple in the group is about to split up.
The three couples, Kate (Tina Fey) and Jack (Will Forte), Nick (Steve Carell) and Anne (Kerri Kenney-Silver), and Danny (Colman Domingo) and Claude (Marco Calvani), are completely upended by the news.
Over the course of a year, we follow the friends on four vacations and watch how this shake-up affects everyone’s dynamic - sending old issues and new bubbling to the surface.
It’s a hopefully hilarious and heartfelt love letter to long marriages and old friendships.
Angi: Fake Life, True Crime, Netflix
This Spanish documentary series is about Ana Páez, a 35-year-old fashion designer who was found dead in a tourist apartment in Barcelona on February 19, 2008.

How did she die? Was it a sexual crime or a sadistic game gone wrong?
This was the initial hypothesis with which the police were working until Angi appeared.
This documentary miniseries revisits what the media dubbed 'The Almost Perfect Crime' and sheds light on the figure of María Ángeles Molina (Angi) and her past with her husband, Juan Antonio Álvarez Litben, who died unexpectedly in 1996.
