Every lunchtime, DailyEdge.ie rounds up the TV shows that you’ll be tweeting about tonight and talking about tomorrow.
Champions League Live, Juventus v Barcelona (RTÉ 2, 6.45pm)
Live coverage of the Champions League final, with the usual suspects Eamon Dunphy, John Giles and Darragh Maloney. Juventus are up against Barcelona at Olympiastadion in Berlin, and like everyone everywhere will be watching. Kick off at 7.45pm.
The John Bishop Show (BBC 1, 9.45pm)
Stand up and variety show hosted by the always-gas John Bishop. This week will have comedy from the likes of Zoe Lyons, Chris Ramsey and Funmbi Omotayo. Jessie Ware will provide the music, and John tries his hand at Irish dancing with the cast of Riverdance. Ohhh yes.
Tropic Thunder (BBC 1, 11.20pm)
Sometimes offensive, always funny. A group of Hollywood actors head to Vietnam to shoot a war film, Guerrilla style. When they’re set upon by local drug dealers, they begin to realise that these guys aren’t actors. The lead actor is captured, so the rest have to band together to save him using their ahem, limited, knowledge of war. Ben Stiller, Jack Black and Robert Downey Jr star.
Everyone is talking about… Netflix ads
Reports suggest that Netflix could be about to roll out ads that play before and after videos.
The streaming service is trialing the move with a select few subscribers. But will they be annoying ads, or Netflix ads?
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 (RTÉ 1, 6.35pm) The seventh Harry Potter movie, and one of the best. Quote me on that.
What Happens in Vegas (TV 3, 10pm) Cameron Diaz and Ashton Kutcher star as two strangers who get married in Vegas. One of them wins €3 million on the slots, and the divorce gets messy.
Anna Karenina (Channel 4, 9pm) Adaptation of Tolstoy’s novel with Keira Knightly.
Something’s Gotta Give (RTÉ 1, 9.40pm) Jack Nicholson plays a womaniser who suffers a heart attack and realises he likes a woman his own age. Shock.
The Bourne Identity (RTÉ 2, 10.30pm) The first in the Jason Bourne series.
