'''[[So You Think You Can Dance]]''' (BBC1, 7.10 Saturday) returns for a second series, with the first of three audition episodes. Before that, there's the grand final of '''[[Total Wipeout]]''' (BBC1, 6.10), and before that, the '''''University Challenge Boat Race''''' (BBC1, 3.45). On UKTV Living, there's a new series of '''[[Four Weddings]]''' (9pm Monday), and on Channel 4, a new run of '''[[Three in a Bed]]''' (8pm Thursday).

'''[[Who Wants to be a Millionaire]]''' is back for one night only (ITV, 8.25 Saturday), and there's a new run of '''[[The Cube]]''' (ITV, Sunday 7pm [8pm Scotland]). Mary Nightingale takes over '''[[Britain's Best Dish]]''' (ITV, 5pm weekdays, not Scotland), there are returns for '''[[A Question of Sport]]''' (BBC1, Monday night) and '''[[Have I Got News for You]]''' (BBC1, 9.30 Friday).

It's a new financial year at the BBC, and the radio stations get a facelift - BBC7 becomes Radio 4Xtra, and begins with Russell Davies's review of the radio panel game in '''''Let's Get Quizzical''''' (9am and 8pm Saturday). There are new runs of '''[[Counterpoint]]''' (Radio 4, 1.30 Monday) and '''[[The Unbelievable Truth]]''' (Radio 4, 6.30 Monday). And, if you like school games in Gaelic, '''[[Gleusta]]''' (BBC Alba, 6.30 Wednesday) could be for you.

Revision as of 17:29, 31 March 2011

This week's highlight is the University Challenge final (BBC2, 8pm Monday), pitting York against the winners of this past week's contest. Who Wants to be a Millionaire is back for one night only (ITV, 8.25 Saturday), and there's a new run of The Cube (ITV, Sunday 7pm [8pm Scotland]). Mary Nightingale takes over Britain's Best Dish (ITV, 5pm weekdays, not Scotland), there are returns for A Question of Sport (BBC1, Monday night) and Have I Got News for You (BBC1, 9.30 Friday).

It's a new financial year at the BBC, and the radio stations get a facelift - BBC7 becomes Radio 4Xtra, and begins with Russell Davies's review of the radio panel game in Let's Get Quizzical (9am and 8pm Saturday). There are new runs of Counterpoint (Radio 4, 1.30 Monday) and The Unbelievable Truth (Radio 4, 6.30 Monday). And, if you like school games in Gaelic, Gleusta (BBC Alba, 6.30 Wednesday) could be for you.
