Current revision as of 19:59, 27 January 2024

New this week: Wing It (Radio 4, Sun), an improvisation comedy. Finishing: Only Connect with the grand final (BBC2, Mon). Back: Tipping Point (ITV, weekdays). There's new Come Dine with Me (C4) in Belfast, and Who Wants to be a Millionaire (ITV, Sun). Masterchef Down Under begins a new series (W).

The biggest event of the week is the UKGameshows/Bother's Bar Poll Winners' Party (The Interwebs, Sun). Who will succeed The 1% Club as best new show? Can Only Connect remain most popular amongst our readers for the 78th year running? Nick, David, and a screenful of special guest discuss the best and worst, and the general state of the genre.
