That Puppet Game Show comes to BBC1 (6.45 Sat), with a stuffed Jonathan Ross and a real talking crab. Fans of real fire-breathers will want Dragons' Den (BBC2, 8pm Sun). Just a Minute (Radio 4, 6.30 Mon) and Girlfri3nds (ITV2, 9pm Wed) return, and Challenge's latest novel import is Killer Karaoke (10pm Thu). No-one will actually be killed.
Schedules subject to change.
