TV Guide 2015-03-28
Eurovision Song Contest memories on Pointless Celebrities (BBC1, Saturday) and Eurovision's Greatest Hits (BBC1, Friday). The grand final of Only Connect (BBC2, Monday), and the start of Relatively Clever (The Satellite Channel, Friday), which we're really looking forward to. Some shows begin, others end: I Survived a Zombie Apocalypse morphs into the undead (BBC3, Sunday into Monday), and the very last episode of Perfection (BBC2, 6.05am Monday). We never loved the show, but it deserved better than a graveyard slot.
