Two performance series reach their finals: '''[[Britain's Got Talent]]''' (ITV, 7.30 Sat) and '''[[Maestro|Maestro at the Opera]]''' (BBC2, 9pm Fri). Odd scheduling from the BBC, with '''[[Young Musician of the Year|Young Musician]]''' (BBC2, 6pm Sat; BBC2 and Radio 3, 6pm Sun) clashing with '''[[The Voice UK]]''' (BBC1, 6.10 Sat and 7.25 Sun). It feels like '''[[Just a Minute]]''' has been everywhere lately, and its third series of the year begins (Radio 4, 6.30 Mon); there's also a new series of '''[[So Wrong It's Right]]''' (Radio 4, 6.30 Wed). On the digital channels, Watch has '''[[Scream If You Know the Answer!|Scream Extreme]]''' (8pm Sun), ITV2 has '''[[The Exclusives]]''' (9pm Thu), and Challenge features '''[[Blockbusters]]''' (8pm weekdays).
+
It's '''[[Eurovision Song Contest]]''' week, with the semi-finals on Tuesday and Thursday (8pm, BBC3 and RTE2; Tue also RTE Radio 1) and a whole host of supporting programming (A Little Bit Eurovision, 50 Years of Eurovision, From Abba to Azerbaijan, Eurovision's Dirty Secret). There is life beyond Baku - '''[[Off By Heart Shakespeare]]''' (BBC2, 9pm Sat) invites young people to remember the words of Little Billy. '''''Penn and Teller Tell a Lie''''' (Quest, 9pm Wed) features six truths and a little bitty fib. And '''[[Have I Got News for You]]''' (BBC1, 9pm Fri) brings together William Shatner and Charlie Brooker in one massive geek explosion.

Revision as of 17:38, 18 May 2012

It's Eurovision Song Contest week, with the semi-finals on Tuesday and Thursday (8pm, BBC3 and RTE2; Tue also RTE Radio 1) and a whole host of supporting programming (A Little Bit Eurovision, 50 Years of Eurovision, From Abba to Azerbaijan, Eurovision's Dirty Secret). There is life beyond Baku - Off By Heart Shakespeare (BBC2, 9pm Sat) invites young people to remember the words of Little Billy. Penn and Teller Tell a Lie (Quest, 9pm Wed) features six truths and a little bitty fib. And Have I Got News for You (BBC1, 9pm Fri) brings together William Shatner and Charlie Brooker in one massive geek explosion.

Schedules subject to change.
