Revision as of 19:18, 9 May 2013

It's Eurovision Song Contest season! Greg James and Russell Kane investigate How to Win Eurovision (BBC3, 9.50 Sat, rpt 8pm Wed), ahead of the semi-finals (BBC3 and RTE2, 8pm Tue and Thu). But if that's not your cup of tea, Sunday night has something for all tastes: The Write Stuff (Radio 4, 7.15), Celebrity Deal or No Deal with The Jls (C4, 8pm), and the British Academy Television Awards (BBC1, 8pm).
