Girls night in… and out
1 This Time Next Year
TUESDAY, ITV, 8PM NEW SERIES Davina McCall returns with the third series of the show that sets the public a personal challenge, and then checks in to see if, 12 months later, they’ve managed to achieve their goal. The first episode is a weight-loss special. Davina meets a couple who’ve vowed to lose 20st, and a nurse who’s been putting off her wedding for 17 years, as she’s terrified of being a fat bride. ‘ With this series, we have concentrated on health and well-being – with people making some radical changes to their lives,’ says the TV hostess. ‘Anybody thinking of making changes will be inspired by these stories. We don’t help them achieve their goals, they have to do it themselves.’ So, if you’re seeking some thin-spiration, tune in.
