TV Guide 2017-09-30

The autumn kicks in, as Strictly Come Dancing has its results show (BBC1, Sun). Celebrity Showmance (ITV2, Wed) pulls the eye out of "Mail", and Sing (The Satellite Channel, Fri) has Cat Deeley.

Some less palatable news. Alphabetical is back (ITV, weekdays), but so is Quote... Unquote (R4, Mon). BBC1 shows support for white supremacists (Wed). And that's The Unbelievable Truth (R4, Mon).

But can we tempt you with a special edition of Y Talwrn (R Cymru, Sun)? The return of Your Face or Mine? (Comedy Central, Wed)? Katherine Ryan on Tipping Point (ITV, Sun)? Ah, knew there's something...
