TV's 50 Greatest Families Episode 1

You

Prepare yourself for a night of nostalgia, family arguments, indignation and surprise as the Fowlers from EastEnders arrive on Sky One to reveal the 50 Greatest Families. By casting their eye across the small screen, the silver screen, the music community and the news pages Todd Carty and Wendy Richard host a celebration of family life and run down the 50 families we all love to love, love to hate or have simply entered our lives in a blaze of publicity either of their own making or by others. They could be TV favourites like the Simpsons or Trotters, real life families like the Beckhams or McCartneys, or families of a political persuasion like the Clintons, Blairs and Thatchers. Many you will remember fondly, some of them simply annoy, but what is certain is that the fathers, mothers and siblings of the 50 greatest families have had an impact on British life. Will any of the aforementioned families make the all-important list? Who would make your list? And what about these families? Famed for their boozy bust-ups and raucous rows as much as their music, perhaps the warring Gallagher brothers are in for the accolade. Or could the Gallaghers from Shameless edge them out? What about the Cranes? Will they finish higher than Huxtables? Are you Carrington or Colby? Will the Royles finish higher up the list than the Royals? All will be revealed in 50 Greatest Families. With classic clips, news footage and commentary from the likes of Tony Booth, Jennie Bond, Boycie and Raquel, Donal Macintyre plus a host of celebrity commentators this celebratory countdown show is compelling family entertainment. Just don't let it cause too many family arguments!

Top 50 Showbiz Comebacks Episode 5

You

Yet another compulsively watchable list show, this time about stars who have made a triumphant return to the stratosphere. Christopher Biggins presents and, as a winner of I'm a Celebrity . . . Get Me Out of Here! - often a last-ditch effort for participants to up their popularity - he's an apt choice. Nor is he the only jungle veteran: Peter Andre, Jason Donovan and Tony Blackburn also appear. Alongside the ageing pin-ups are soap characters, bands, musicals, the Osbournes, the royal family - anyone and everything that's made a comeback in the last decade. It's a reminder of the fallible nature of fame but, better than that, it's an extended gossip session on the topsy-turvy careers of your favourite stars.
