Pick of the Day
Trainwreck: P.I. Moms, Netflix
This documentary series continues with another eye-popping tale.
In 2010, Lifetime Channel commissions a reality TV series about a private investigation agency staffed by soccer moms.
Everyone is convinced they have the next big hit series on their hands, until the production crew starts to notice something is off.
The moms’ investigations keep falling apart, and that subsequently leads to allegations of sabotage.
At the same time, a mysterious informant accuses the agency’s boss of running an illegal drug operation on the side, aided by a corrupt cop.
For both the TV series and the criminals dealing drugs, it is only a matter of time before things fall disastrously apart.

Coverage of the opening semi-final, between England and Italy (Kick-off 8.00pm), which comes from Stade de Genève in Switzerland.
England continue their defence of their European title after they came through a rollercoaster quarter-final with Sweden, fighting back from 2-0 down to take the match to penalties and winning the shootout 3-2 despite failing to score four of their spot kicks.
There was also drama in Italy's last-eight contest, which saw them claim a 2-1 win against Norway, with star striker Cristiana Girelli (above) completing her brace in second-half stoppage time.
England are clear favourites here given the superiority of their squad, so the Italians need to be well-disciplined if they’ve to have any chance.
