CATCH-UP TV DRAMA
Babs BBC iPLAYER
Biopic of Barbara Windsor that portrays the life of the Carry On star with wit, flair and imagination. Jaime Winstone and Samantha Spiro play her in the 1960s and the 1990s in a warm-hearted tribute written by Tony Jordan (EastEnders, Life On Mars). Elizabeth I: Battle For The Throne MY5
Model Lily Cole plays the Virgin Queen, as she grows from princess to warrior ruler, in this well-mounted mix of drama and documentary.
COMEDY
You’re The Worst MY5
One of those well-regarded US comedies that wind up in a poor timeslot over here (Sundays, 11pm, 5Star), You’re The Worst is an anti-romantic comedy that stars Britain’s Chris Geere as half of a young couple who are desperate to still party like singletons.
DOCUMENTARY
Long Lost Family: What Happened Next ITV HUB Since the show began six years ago, Davina McCall and Nicky Campbell have reunited more than 200 people with long-lost relatives. This series finds out what happens after the reunion – which can be just the start of the story. Mind The Age Gap In Channel 5’s interesting new series, 12 people from two different age groups make a valiant attempt to bridge the generation gap. Will the conversations between the two groups – one in their 20s, the other in their 60s – result in a new sense of understanding between the generations, or simply serve to highlight the divide in modern society? Dara And Ed’s Road To Mandalay BBC iPLAYER Comedians and friends Dara O Briain and Ed Byrne go off on a jolly, 3,000-mile jaunt through Southeast Asia – ‘one of the most rapidly changing places on Earth’ – that will take them to Thailand and Myanmar. In the first part, the Irish duo explore Malaysia, starting in the capital of Kuala Lumpur.
ENTERTAINMENT
Doctor Who
BBC iPLAYER
There’s a special iPlayer version of last week’s creepy episode. Listen to it through headphones and a 3-D effect is created, placing you right at the centre of all the spooky goingson. Best to listen with the lights on, perhaps…
LAST CHANCE
Maigret’s Night At The Crossroads
ITV HUB
The third, slow-burning outing for Rowan Atkinson in the role of Georges Simenon’s pipe-smoking detective. Until Tuesday.
