MURDER MYSTERY
Madeleine, 5.30pm,
Talking Pictures TV
DAVID LEAN’S fact-based
drama stars his wife, Ann
Todd, as Madeleine Smith, the
respectable Glaswegian tried for
the murder of her French lover
in 1857. It’s an intriguing case,
explored with great style and
flair, and it was resolved by a
unique quirk of Scottish law.
FOOTBALL
Wolverhampton Wanderers v
Manchester United, 7pm, Sky
Premier League & Main Event
WOLVES knocked United out of
the FA Cup last season, then went
on to beat them in the Premier
League. Can record signing Harry
Maguire help to secure things
for United at the back? After last
weekend’s 4-0 defeat of Chelsea,
the signs are looking good.
FILM COMEDY
Clockwise, 8pm,
Talking Pictures TV
JOHN CLEESE is the head teacher
running out of time and losing
the plot (pictured). He’s very
much as irate and hapless as
Basil Fawlty, though this isn’t
half as perfect as Fawlty Towers.
SERIES FINALE
Blue Bloods, 9pm, Sky Witness
THE tension between work
and family is especially high in
the NYPD drama’s season nine
finale, which is built around the
wedding of Jamie and Eddie. In
the run-up to that, Jamie’s sister
— a District Attorney — essentially
accuses Eddie of lying at work.
U.S. COMEDY
Single Parents,
9pm, Comedy Central
IT’S Halloween in the first of a
new double bill of this U.S. comedy,
which masks its mushy centre with
a cynical wit. Mum Angie (Leighton
Meester) is pulled between work
and trick-or-treating, while dad
Will’s daughter suddenly feels
she’s too mature for the season.
GRAND DESIGNER
Rams: Principles Of
Good Design, 9pm, BBC4
THE German designer Dieter
Rams has been working since
the 1950s, and doesn’t hold back
on his opinions in this stylishly
presented new profile. Rams’s
design philosophy of ‘less, but
better’ is especially appealing in
a world in which so many things
are so needlessly confusing.
BLACK COMEDY
Succession, 9pm, Sky Atlantic
THE strength of this US series
lies in how it’s essentially a
family drama about children
trying to impress their dad —
except that the children are now
all messed-up adults, and they
work for him. That’s never clearer
than with the downtrodden
Kendall, who finds fresh
purpose in tonight’s new episode.
BABY BOOM
Emma Willis: Delivering
Babies, 10pm, W
A PATIENT comes in for a
Caesarean for her fifth child in
this new episode, but her blood
pressure is high. Is it nerves, the
stress of already having four kids,
or something else? Emma (pictured
centre) is told to take blood to
investigate further — that certainly
gives her a rush of nerves as she
hasn’t done it for nine months.
FOUR WHEELS GOOD
Sir Chris Hoy: From Velodrome
To Le Mans, 10pm, BBC4
AFTER he left cycling behind,
Olympic great Chris Hoy
channelled his energies towards
his childhood dream of competing
at the peak of motor racing —
the 24-hour contest at Le Mans.
This finely made documentary
follows him on that journey,
and also observes the impact
of the sport on his family life.

O KATE’S mother lives in
fear of her violent husband,
while Baba’s mother treats
her husband with contempt.
We’re in rural Ireland in the
1950s, where a candlewick
bedspread is a sign of
sophistication, and Kate
and Baba dream of life in
the big city. This ten-part
adaptation of Edna O’Brien’s
bestselling novel, THE
COUNTRY GIRLS (RADIO
4, 10.45AM, 7.45PM),
starring Charlie Murphy
(pictured) as Kate and
Aoibhinn McGinnity as
Baba, catches the period
and the charm of O’Brien’s
writing perfectly.
O CARL BERNSTEIN,
one of the journalists who
exposed the Watergate
scandal, had an affair with
Margaret Jay, the daughter
of British PM James
Callaghan. It destroyed
Bernstein’s marriage to
screenwriter Nora Ephron,
