Quacks, 10pm, BBC2

THIS week, an outspoken young hospital volunteer by the name of Florence Nightingale sets the cat among the pigeons with her talk of fresh air and cleanliness. ‘We’ve got to get rid of her!’ spits showman surgeon Lessing, fearing

that an enforced hygiene regime would d have a detrimental effect on ticket sales. Meanwhile, Robert’s wife, Caroline, gets cosy with Charles Dickens, no less (Sherlock’s Andrew Scott, pictured).
