SIX HIGHLIGHTS FOR WHAT EVER MOOD YOU’RE IN

-

If you want shock docs... LOUIS THEROUX’S FORBIDDEN AMERICA Sunday, 9pm, BBC2

In his first series of completely new material since 2018, the bespectacl­ed documentar­ymaker (right) returns to the US to explore the impact of the internet and social media on some of the most controvers­ial corners of American society. Prepare to be shocked.

If you want a nailbiter... SMOTHER Sunday, 9.30pm, RTÉ One

In this series finale, Val (Dervla Kirwan, right) is determined to confront Alanna but when her investigat­ion twists once more toward a surprising and dark conclusion, she realises, too late, that an even darker and more dangerous threat is brewing much, much closer to home.

If you want history... RISE OF THE NAZIS: DICTATORS AT WAR Monday, 9pm, BBC2

The first series of this gripping World War Two documentar­y charted Hitler’s rise to power; the second looks at the Nazi leader’s disastrous decision to invade the Soviet Union — which pitted him against Joseph Stalin (right). It digs into the psychologi­es of both despots.

If you want grand designs... HOME OF THE YEAR Tuesday, 8.30pm, RTÉ One

The competitio­n returns with a new judge — award-winning interior designer Sara Cosgrove (right) joins Hugh Wallace and Amanda Bone. The first houses she will be giving her verdict on include a terraced home in Dublin, and a new build in Co Kerry with a traditiona­l exterior, and a contempora­ry look inside.

If you want green thumbs... YOUR GARDEN MADE PERFECT Wednesday, 8.20pm, RTÉ2

Following on from Your Home Made Perfect, Angela Scanlon (right) and the team use remarkable technology to reinvent garden spaces. Demi and Laura have a busy life, but their lacklustre L-shaped garden, strewn with kids’ toys, badly needs an injection of life.

If you want travel... EXTRAORDIN­ARY ESCAPES WITH SANDI TOKSVIG Thursday, 9pm, Ch4

Sandi is back for a second series of adventures in the company of fascinatin­g and funny women. In the first episode, she’s exploring Devon with comedian Sarah Millican (right). History, wildlife and a private spa retreat are all on the itinerary.
