TV Guide 2016-06-18
Even though there's football, it's a busy week this week. Celebrity Masterchef is back (BBC1, Wed, Fri). The final of UK's Best Part-Time Band (BBC2, Sat), and Countdown (C4, all week). Father's Day is marked by a special edition of Airmageddon (CBBC, Sun).
Counterpoint (R4, Mon) returns for music fans, and Taskmaster (Dave, Tue) for rules lawyers. Real lawyers might watch panel game It's Not Me, It's You (C5, Thu), and the imported @midnight (Comedy Central, 11.59pm weeknights). And there's unaccompanied singing on the import Sing It On! (5*, Thu).
