TV Guide Last Week

After the party, it's the hangover, with very few new shows of note this week. Interesting programmes include the final of Great British Hairdresser (E4, 10pm Monday), featuring a guest appearance by Vidal Sassoon; and the start of a new series of Survivor (TG4, 7.30 Wednesday), but that's only for viewers in Ireland. There's all sorts of schedule-related shenanigans from the election results on Friday, do check carefully before viewing. Highlight of the week, then, is The Quite Remarkable David Coleman (BBC2, 9pm Tuesday), a profile of the man who hosted A Question of Sport for absolutely years.
