TV Guide This Week
It's Song Contest week across the British Isles, with Can i Gymru (S4C, 7.45 Friday) leading neatly into The Late Late Show Eurosong special (RTE1, 9.35 Friday). Before that, Steve Jones (2) lets down BBC3's Hair (9pm Tuesday), the return of Saturday Night Takeaway (ITV, 7pm Saturday), and a special edition of The Cube (ITV, 6pm Saturday). And remember CJ de Mooi from the Eggheads? He's back in Revenge of the Egghead (BBC2, 6pm weekdays).
Schedules subject to change.
