It's not exactly the most exciting week: The Million Pound Drop returns to generate post-pub debates on Friday night (C4, 10pm). Beyond that? House of the Year (BBC2NI, 7pm Thursday), Don't Forget the Lyrics Us (Sky3, 5pm weekdays), and some new Come Dine with Me (C4, 8pm Sunday). And that's about it.
