What to watch on TV tonight: Sunday
DailyEdge.ie rounds up the TV shows that you’ll be tweeting about tonight and talking about tomorrow.
Robot Wars (BBC Two, 8pm)
No, we haven’t stepped into a time machine. Robot Wars is properly BACK. Hosted by Angela Scanlon and Dara Ó Briain (COYBIG!), the series will see 40 teams of amateur robot fighting teams duke it out in the hope of becoming Robot Wars Champion. Perfect slice of Sunday evening throwback fun. And yes, Sir Killalot is still knocking around the place. #RobotWars

A film about the notorious criminal Martin Cahill starring the incomparable Brendan Gleeson. Sure, you’ve seen it a dozen times, but once more won’t hurt.
PS I Love You (TV3, 10pm)
Meanwhile if rom-coms set in Ireland (see: Leap Year, The Matchmaker) are your guilty pleasure, then you owe it yourself to watch PS I Love You. If only to have a sneer at Gerard Butler’s woeful Irish accent.
