CLEOPATRA, PORTRAIT OF A KILLER
BBC ONE 9:00 PM
If history programmes are your thing then this is definitely worth a look. We all know that these documentaries belong at the BBC and there is no other company that does them better. Tonight, Neil Oliver who some may have seen on The One Show travels to Egypt and Turkey to uncover the reign of Cleopatra VII. Throughout his journey, Oliver unravels the monarch’s lust for power and answers the question as to whether she killed her own daughter.
FILM – PRETTY WOMAN
ITV2 9:00 PM
I think that ITV2 must be receiving commission for showing this film because it is always on. Nevertheless it is a very good film and no matter how many times it is shown, people will tune in and watch it. Julia Roberts and Richard Gere star in this comedy that was released way back in 1990. In the film, (as if you didn’t already know) Gere plays a businessman that hires a prostitute in the form of Julia Roberts. But as the film progresses, the pair fall in love. Will they it go or confront their feelings? We all know what happens and will probably be tuning in anyway…
GAVIN AND STACEY CHRISTMAS SPECIAL
BBC THREE 9:00 PM
BBC Three have been repeating the first and second series and now it is time, if you missed it to catch up on the Christmas special which has me in fits of laughter. Probably one of the TV highlights over the Christmas period, Gavin and Stacey have some big news for both families but how will Pam and Smithy take it? Also can Smithy persuade Ness to break off her engagement to Dave Coaches? When I was watching it, I could relate to what was going on and Ruth Jones and James Corden did an amazing job when writing it. With a lot of laughs throughout, make sure you tune in and watch the most famous marriage on television.
