LATER 25TH ANNIVERSAR­Y CONCERT Today, BBC2, 9pm

I STILL still picture Jools Holland as the cigar-chomping keyboard player with Squeeze, probably the greatest British rock group of the last 40 years. Since the early Nineties, he has become better known as a TV host who accompanie­s his guests in boogiewoog­ie piano. This two-hour special from the Royal Albert Hall features a stellar line-up including Van Morrison, Foo Fighters, Paul Weller, Dizzee Rascal and Gregory Porter.

THE CHILD IN TIME Tomorrow, BBC1, 9pm

THIS BBC-produced film is adapted from Ian McEwan’s awardwinni­ng novel. Children’s author Stephen Lewis’s (Benedict Cumberbatc­h) fouryear-old daughter is abducted from a supermarke­t and the strain of it all costs him his marriage. He is kept going by regular evenings with his friends Charles and Thelma. But when they buy a house in the country their motives for moving ‘transpire to be much darker and more complex than they had initially led Stephen to believe’.

ACCEPTABLE RISK Tomorrow, RTÉ1, 9.30pm

THIS six-part thriller, set in Dublin and Montreal, sounds promising. Sarah Manning (Elaine Cassidy) looks like a typical grieving widow when her husband is murdered during a business trip. But Detective Sergeant Emer Byrne (Angeline Ball) is convinced that it is ‘not a straightfo­rward case and Sarah is not an innocent as she seems’.

AN ART LOVERS’ GUIDE Wednesday, BBC4, 8pm
