Your week FIVE THINGS FOR YOUR WEEK...

STREAMING

Little America, Apple TV+, streaming now

In January 2020, Apple TV+ launched the first Little America series, which shined a spotlight on the true stories of various immigrants trying to make the country their home. A follow-up has taken a long time to appear, but it’s here at last – hopefully the long wait means a lot of time and care has been taken with the programme so that it lives up to (or maybe even exceeds) its Bafta, Independent Spirit, NAACP and GLAAD Media Award-nominated predecessor. Once again the season will last for eight episodes, with each standalone story running for 30 minutes. Among the tales featured are that of a Belizian woman working for a Hasidic New York family, and a Ohio-based Japanese woman hoping to found a women’s baseball league.

MUSIC SPECIAL Feeling Good: The Radio 2 Piano Room, BBC2, 8.35pm, Saturday

It’s a busy time of year Michael Bublé – for many people, he’s become the soundtrack to the festive period. However, if you want a reminder that the singer isn’t just for Christmas, there’s a chance to see him give him a non-seasonal performance in this special, which rounds up some of the most memorable visits to

Radio 2’s Piano Room from across the year. Stars who drop by the room in the Maida Vale Studios get to join forces with the BBC Concert Orchestra to perform a new song, a classic and a cover, so also expect to hear Sam Smith tackling Des’ree, Olly Murs honouring Coldplay, and Paul Heaton and Jacqui Abbott singing a George Ezra hit.

QUIZ The Hit List, BBC1, 5.30pm, Saturday

With what decade would you most associate Westlife’s Brian McFadden and Boyzone’s Keith Duffy, S Club 7’s Tina Barrett and Bradley

Brian McFadden.

McIntosh, and 911’s Lee Brennan and pop legend Sonia? If you said they span the 1980s to the 2000s, you apparently wouldn’t do very well on this quiz show as according to the BBC, this is a 1990s special. They did all score hits in that decade, and now Marvin and Rochelle Humes are giving them the chance to show how much they know about other people’s records.

CRIME DRAMA Strike: Troubled Blood, BBC1, 9pm, Sunday

It’s a while since we’ve seen them, so it’s lovely to have private detectives Cormoran Strike (Tom Burke) and Robin Ellacott (Holliday Grainger) back on our screens. It’s more than two years since they were last in action, when an investigation into a supposed suicide resulted in Robin being in danger – again. Hopefully this time she stays safe, because the books and the TV adaptation wouldn’t be the same without her. While visiting his family in Cornwall, Cormoran is approached by a woman hoping to find out what happened to her mother.

FAMILY FUN

Strictly Come Dancing, BBC1, 7.15pm, Sunday

There used to be one thing we could all rely on in TV land – and that was being able to watch Strictly Come Dancing on a Saturday night. Well, that’s gone right out of the window lately thanks to the World Cup. Last week’s quarterfinal took place on Friday evening and now, the semi is on a Sunday.
