Switched on:

Monroe, ITV, Thursday – A mix of all the best medical drama’s going. A bit of house, ER, casualty (c’mon it isn’t that bad!), with James Nesbitt taking the helm as a complex surgeon who rules the roost in the hospital. Expect pace, drama and romantic interludes in this slick drama, continuing ITV’s dominance of the best of British.

Let’s Dance for Comic Relief, BBC1, Saturday – Ok so it’s not the final of Strictly and we shouldn’t expect any sort of Brendan Coles to emerge, but this is a great bit of Saturday night TV to support a great cause. Russell Kane and Noel Fielding are just two of the great sports who have put themselves up for public humiliation. Katie Price has too, so make sure you tune in for a good laugh
