PICK OF THE DAY
THE NEST
9PM, BBC1 ★★★★
There are plenty more twists and shocks to come as this bleak yet involving thriller reaches its final episodes
(it concludes tomorrow).
Dan bonds with the baby, while Emily struggles – filled with dread, she is convinced something isn’t quite right. Kaya remains desperate for a fresh start, but as the police investigate the death of her neighbour, Doddy – and with her mother, Siobhan (Shirley Henderson, right), on the scene – Kaya is surrounded by people who lie, exploit and betray her. Can she find a way to take control of her future?
BRITAIN BY BALLOON
6PM, CH5 ★★★★
Sit back and float up and away from earthbound worries to experience stunning views of the Lake District from a hot-air balloon. As first light breaks, the balloon takes to the air, heading south from Thirlmere; you will see the sights of Helm Crag, Rydal Water, Windermere and Coniston in tranquil peace.
WHO WANTS TO BE A MILLIONAIRE? CELEBRITY SPECIAL
★★★★ Three celebrities face Jeremy Clarkson as they play to win for their chosen charities. Surely, Pointless boffin Richard Osman will climb higher up the prize board than Charlotte Church or John Barnes – who knows? The drama Quiz, about the show’s ‘coughing major’ controversy, starts on Monday.
ANTIQUES ROADSHOW
8PM, BBC1 ★★★★
From the magnificent grounds of Compton Verney House in Warwickshire, military expert Mark Smith hears the remarkable story of how a First World War hero won the Victoria Cross. Many more of tonight’s finds have fascinating stories behind them, too, including that of an Olympic gold medal won in 1924. SA
5.05PM, SKY ARTS ★★★★
The highlight of this 2010 staging of the musical spectacular is seeing the glee on Matt Lucas’s face as he plays pub landlord Monsieur Thenardier (left). The comedian had loved Les Mis for years, and later oined the show’s West End cast.
