What to watch on TV tonight: Wednesday
DailyEdge.ie rounds up the TV shows that you’ll be tweeting about tonight and talking about tomorrow.
John Connors: The Travellers, RTÉ One, 9.35pm
The last of John Connors’ three-part documentary that looks at the shared history of travellers and settled people airs tonight. John uses modern DNA analysis to look for possible answers as to why the two cultures separated many years ago. Powerful storytelling. #TheTravellers
Making It Down Under, RTÉ One, 8.30pm
The final episode of the series that follows recent Irish arrivals in Australia as they work in challenging careers. Tonight, mother-of-seven Rosie offers an insight into what it is like to have such a large brood, and flying doctor Matthew battles to keep a man alive mid-flight. #MakingItDownUnder
The Great British Bake Off, BBC One, 8pm
