TV tonight the return of a beautiful hit Australian crime drama

Against the odds, this silly family game show continues to endure as a TV institution. Stephen Mulhern hosts this celebrity version with Dianne Buswell, Ria Hebden and Neil Morrissey saying what they see with £50k for a charity of their choice at stake. Phil Harrison

Chris Kamara (AKA Ghost) was the first celebrity to “take it off!” in the opening episode – so who will reveal themselves this week? The remaining six contestants still to take to the stage include Jacket Potato, Rubbish and Piece of Cake. HR

The twosome’s game show with a neverending money ladder is back. This week, Jimmy Carr and Katherine Ryan complete the game they started on the Christmas Day celebrity special, with their winnings going to charity.

Crimes of the Future (David Cronenberg, 2022), 10.10pm, Sky Cinema Premiere

David Cronenberg returns to the body horror that made his name, and it’s every bit as twisted as you’d hope. In a dilapidated near future, Saul Tenser – Cronenberg regular Viggo Mortensen – makes performance art from the mysterious new organs his body keeps producing. In perversely erotic shows, they are surgically removed by his partner Caprice (Léa Seydoux). Lurking around are Kristen Stewart’s sly organ registry official and Scott Speedman’s plastic-eating radical. It’s a netherworld of accelerated evolution, where extreme body modification has become the hot new thing. Disturbing and graphic, but thoughtful – just the way Cronenberg likes it. Simon Wardell

Bohemian Rhapsody (Bryan Singer, Dexter Fletcher 2018), 9pm, Channel 4“Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy?” The biopic of Queen singer Freddie Mercury stays reasonably true to the facts, which contain enough drama not to need embellishing. Bookended by the band’s triumphant Live Aid concert in 1985, it follows Mercury as he joins the group and makes them all stars – while coming to terms with his sexuality and, ultimately, the hollowness of fame. Rami Malek won an Oscar for his sympathetic, tortured Freddie, and the film wisely keeps the focus on him rather than his beige bandmates. SW
