It must be at least five minutes since Susan Calman was last on telly. Time to put that right with new Top Class (CBBC, Sun). Fred Sirieix asks if famous food can be replicated on Snackmasters (C4, Tue).

There's a new series of Your Face or Mine (Comedy Central, Wed), and the first domestic version of RuPaul's Drag Race (BBC II!, Thu) begins online.
