PICK OF THE DAY

QUEENS OF MYSTERY

★★★

There’s only so much Midsomer Murders to go around, so that’s where shows such as this and Sky’s Agatha Raisin come in. Julie Graham (right), Sarah Woodward and Siobhan Redmond star as three crimewriting sisters who live in the picturesque English village of Wildemarsh – all three are aunts to DS Mattie Stone, and her arrival in their cosy hamlet in this first episode is the starting gun for much mystery-solving. Wildemarsh is a colourful world full of lively sorts and, if you like it, there are two whole series to be found on demand, on Acorn TV.

9.15PM, CH5 CRUFTS 2022 3PM, 7PM, CH4 ★★★★

The fortunes of dogs in lockdown is a theme across the whole third day of coverage. In the earlier block, also look out for footage of the wonderful Heelwork To Music final and, in the 7pm slot, there’s Scruffts – the time for crossbreeds to shine. The much-anticipated Best In Show final is tomorrow from 7pm.

THE RADIO 2 PIANO ROOM 6.45PM, BBC2

★★★★ During February, Ken Bruce invited 20 of the UK’S bestloved artists into Radio 2’s Piano Room to perform a new song, a classic and a cover, accompanied by the BBC Concert Orchestra. Here are some of the highlights featuring Ed Sheeran, Craig David, James Blunt, Tom Odell, Tears For Fears and more.

CASUALTY 8.35PM, BBC1

★★★

Past mistakes cast a long shadow in the ED tonight, particularly in the case of a woman with aphantasia and her friend with liver damage. Aphantasia means that a person cannot form images of something in their head – it comes from the Greek for ‘without imagination’, which seems harsh.
