What to watch on TV tonight: Thursday
Every lunchtime, DailyEdge.ie rounds up the TV shows that you’ll be tweeting about tonight and talking about tomorrow.
Crumlin (RTÉ 1, 10.15pm)
A new series following the staff and patients of Our Lady’s Children’s Hospital in Crumlin, Ireland’s largest pediatric hospital. This episode will focus on the cardiology dept, as we visit a baby with his heart on the right side, and a 13-year-old with a potentially fatal abnormality in their heart. You’ll get a new appreciation for Ireland’s healthcare workers.
First Dates (Channel 4, 10pm)
This massively addictive dating show is back for a new series. The concept is simple… get two singletons who’ve never met, send them on a date, and tape the whole thing. It’s cringe, funny, sweet, and mortifying all at once.
Hunted (Channel 4, 9pm)
In today’s tech-obsessed world, a worrying amount of what we do is monitored. You can’t walk across the street, withdraw cash, make a phonecall or browse the internet without being detected. This show sets the challenge to simply disappear, with British people attempting to go on the run and avoid a group of hunters attempting to track them down.
Everyone is talking about… Jimmy Fallon and Ellen DeGeneres’ lip-sync battle
In perhaps one of the best lip-sync battle to date, Jimmy Kimmel took on Ellen DeGeneres and she absolutely nailed it with Bitch Better Have My Money by Rihanna.
Observe.
Or flick over for…
A Week to my Wedding (RTÉ 1, 8.30pm) A couple take a week off work to finish planning the wedding.
Arthur (RTÉ 1, 9pm) Russell Brand plays an irresponsible billionaire playboy and somehow ends up having a bath with Helen Mirren.
World’s Weirdest Events (BBC 2, 8pm) Does exactly what it says on the tin.
Location, Location, Location (Channel 4, 8pm) Nosing around homes, our favourite thing.
