Gazza

9PM, BBC2 ★★★★ This new, two-part series looks at the career of football legend Paul Gascoigne (right), from its dizzying highs to its desperate lows. We begin in 1988 as the working-class Geordie helped to drag football out of the dark shadow of hooliganis­m. After his transfer to Tottenham Hotspur for a record fee, Gazza took England to the 1990 World Cup, and history (against West Germany) was made. As much as his inspiratio­nal footwork demanded attention, however, so too did his offpitch antics. Gazza was stalked mercilessl­y by the press, and there was growing concern about his ability to cope.

Mary Berry’s Fantastic Feasts

8PM, BBC1 ★★★★ Postponed from March 9, this episode finds Mary helping a trio of friends to brush up on their kitchen skills to prepare afternoon tea as a thank you for a very special friend. On hand to help with some finishing touches are Roman Kemp and Tom Read Wilson as Mary makes sure there’s not a soggy bottom in sight.

Secrets Of The Museum 8PM, BBC2

★★★★

Follow preparatio­ns for a new exhibition of works by Carl Faberge as 70 pieces from the royal collection – including the famous bejewelled eggs – are loaned to the V&A in London. In Dungeness, curator Kate meets a costume designer who unveiled an unusual fundraisin­g campaign in the 2020 awards season. Continues Thursday.

Grand Designs: The Streets

9PM, CH4 ★★★★ Kevin Mccloud returns to Graven Hill, the Oxfordshir­e developmen­t we first saw in 2019, to follow more families making their self-build dreams come true. We also follow the birth of a similar project in Glasgow, but first, at Graven Hill, Maite and Carlos have a bold vision and a budget that doesn’t quite match. SA
