TV Guide This Week

QI XL returns on Saturday (8.45 BBC2), and do beware that BRIAN BLESSED is on Family Fortunes (ITV, 6.45). Two editions of The X Factor this weekend, 7.30 Saturday and 7.45 Sunday; the latter follows the first in a new series of The Cube (ITV, 6.45 Sunday).Viewers in Ireland get their new series of The Apprentice (TV3, 9pm Monday) and Survivor: Samoa (TG4, 9.05 Tuesday). And if you're suffering from Big Brother withdrawal symptoms, you may wish to watch Streetmate (4 Music, 9pm Mo-Tu, 7pm We). If that doesn't do the trick, rush yourself to Casualty (Watch, 8am Thursday) where you'll meet a future contestant.
