Highlights this week:
Highlights this week:
-
'''[[Last Choir Standing]]''' (BBC1, 7.45pm-ish)
+
'''[[World's Strongest Man|Britain's Strongest Man]]''' (C5, 10am Saturday)

'''Llangollen '08 - Cor y Byd''' (S4C, 8.15 Saturday)
-
:The final part of this series looks at the history of the quiz show. From the three-and-a-half episodes we've seen, it's been an unimpressive format, pretending to give a deep sociological examination to its subject, but not actually saying anything we couldn't work out ourselves. The show's thesis is explained by its billing: American-derived formats ([[Take Your Pick]]), highbrow shows ([[Ask the Family]]), financial frenzy ([[Who Wants to be a Millionaire?|Millionaire]]).
+
:Live coverage of the Llangollen Choir of the World competition. Far more prestigious than anything BBC1 can offer.
-
'''[[This Time Tomorrow]]''' (BBC1, 8.45pm Saturday. Approximately)

-
 
+
-
'''[[Scrapheap Challenge]]''' (C4, 5.55pm Sunday)
+
-
:The winners will be crowned Scrapheap Challenge Champions 2007.

+

+
-
:Well, that's the second half of the Week sorted for the next 31 editions.
+
-
 
+
-
'''[[Mastermind|Sports Mastermind]]''' (BBC2, 8pm Tuesday)
+
-
:Des Lynam asks the questions.
+
-
 
+
