Child Genius (Channel 4, 8.00pm)

New series. Quizmaster Richard Osman returns with the nationwide contest to find the nation’s brightest child, with 19 of the country’s cleverest eight to 12-year-olds battling it out for the title. In the first round of the competition, the children must display a phenomenal array of linguistic skills when they are challenged to spell some of the most complicated words in the English dictionary. For round two, they must master Old English, a language so difficult it is normally learnt only by academics.

This Time with Alan Partridge (BBC One, 9.30pm)

Due to the sudden illness of regular co-host of BBC One magazine show This Time, broadcaster Alan Partridge makes his long-awaited return to prime time TV when he is asked to stand-in as guest presenter.
