DYNAMO: MAGICIAN IMPOSSIBLE Baffling wizardry

If you want to make people sit up and take notice, there are few better ways than kicking off your own show by walking across the River Thames outside the Houses Of Parliament.

THE TUDORS Joust the ticket!

Serious students of history, avert your gaze... The Tudors is the story of Henry VIII if casting was handled by a model agency, and the script written by Jackie ‘Bonkbuster’ Collins. So we get a slimline Jonathan Rhys Meyers as Henry, plus future Man of Steel Henry Cavill and an impossibly glamorous Natalie Dormer (right, with Meyers) as the doomed Anne Boleyn. The four-series 2007 drama may have played fast and loose with historical accuracy but it was massively popular. Sex, violence and codpieces... what more could you want? All4, from Friday

THE SERPENT On the trail of a killer

Viewers have been gripped by The Serpent, a chilling true-crime drama that explores the haunting story of French serial killer Charles Sobhraj. Tahar Rahim takes on the lead role opposite Victoria star Jenna Coleman, who plays his girlfriend. BBC iPlayer, available now
