PICK OF THE DAY
STACEY DOOLEY: BACK ON THE PSYCH WARD
9PM, BBC2 ★★★★
Even the most resilient of us have faced a few dark days as the pandemic grinds on into the winter months. But what about the many millions of people in the UK living with anxiety, depression and other mental health conditions? One year on from her first visit to London’s Springfield Hospital, Stacey (right) returns to the front line of NHS mental health services to find out how they are coping during the pandemic. In full protective gear, Stacey meets patients in crisis, all in need of urgent help and support.
A PERFECT PLANET
8PM, BBC1 ★★★★
This final episode looks at the impact of humans on Earth – and it’s not a pretty picture. David Attenborough reflects on his more than 60 years of reporting on the natural world, and is joined by biologists, environmentalists and other experts to show how our presence has become an allconsuming, destructive force.
FINDING ALICE
9.10PM, ITV ★★★★
As we continue to share the emotional rollercoaster of Alice’s grief, she slowly starts to reach out for help. But her first visit to the bereavement group is cut disdainfully short. As Harry’s inquest looms, will his enigmatic son, George, provide answers? And can Alice find a way to buy the house back from her in-laws?
RHOD GILBERT: STAND UP TO INFERTILITY
9.45PM, BBC2 ★★★
Male infertility is a problem that is rarely discussed, but stand-up comic Rhod is about to do just that – in his own irreverent, expressive style. He describes his own sperm as ‘senile swimmers in need of Zimmers’, but overall sperm counts are in steep decline.
It’s time to get talking. SA
