TONIGHT'S TOP TV (by reporter Sharon Pell)

BBC1, 9pm: Stephen Fry in America
WRITER and actor Stephen Fry hops in his black cab and heads to the next phase of his American adventure.
He learns about West Virginia's coal-mining industry, flies over North Carolina in a hot-air balloon and spends Thanksgiving in Georgia, before resting in Alabama.

ITV1, 9pm: A Touch of Frost
AN ABDUCTION of a bus driver and his conductor and an unrelated murder of a children's entertainer are the focus of Jack's attention in the long-running crime drama.
But frustration reigns when he has to work alongside a former colleague who got him suspended by making a complaint about his handling of a case.
David Jason, Cherie Lunghi and John Lyons star.


FEET UP WITH A FILM? (Tonight's best movies by reporter David Seymour)

Five, 9pm: Dirty Dancing (1987) (15)
DEFINITIVE chick flick. Patrick Swayze is the dance instructor at a Sixties resort,
Jennifer Grey is the naïve teenager stepping in as his dance partner when his regular becomes pregnant…and comes of age. Features a training montage in a lake, and the Oscar-winning song I've Had The Time Of My Life.

Channel 4, 9pm: Independence Day (1996) (12)
ROLAND Emmerich's sci-fi adventure brought the disaster film back to the big screen with a bang. Lots of bangs, in fact, and that's the film's major selling point. Will Smith's wisecracking pilot brings a little flair to the familiar story of evil invading aliens and plucky heroic humans.
