Readers who were expecting to see television for the week before Easter, that's now over at TV Guide Last Week.
This week, hide behind the sofa as Don't Scare the Hare emerges from its warren (BBC1, 5.25 Saturday), and then ask Who Dares Wins (BBC1, 8pm). Easter Monday has a compilation of best bits in QIVG (BBC1, 10.15), and the additional bank holiday is marked by Come Have a Street Party With Me (C4, 8pm Friday). The big one this week is the Masterchef final (BBC1, 9pm Monday - Wednesday).
