JOE WICKS: FACING MY CHILDHOOD

BBC1, 9pm

Thanks to his bestselling recipe books and online workouts, Joe Wicks was already well on his way to becoming the nation’s No 1 health and fitness guru before lockdown struck. But his PE with Joe lessons, which went down a treat with parents and children alike, sealed his reputation for making exercise fun and available to all, no matter their ability. Wicks presents a warm and affable side to the world, but it belies a troubled childhood as the offspring of parents with mental health issues - his mother suffered from acute obsessive compulsive disorder, while his father was a heroin addict. In this moving and revealing documentary, he opens up about his experiences, meets those who are struggling and reveals why he believes exercise is important to our all-round wellbeing.
