EMMERDALE

ITV, 7pm

As Will returns to the village, both Harriet and

Dawn are pleased to see him. But that happiness

doesn’t last long when Cain sacks him from the

garage. Comforting him later, Dawn realises

there’s still something between Will and Harriet.

It’s bad news at The Woolpack as Charity tells

Paddy he, Chas and Bear will have to move out

because of the dry rot. Already stressed, things

get worse for Paddy when Bear asks him to read

out a letter from his mother.

EASTENDERS

BBC1, 8pm

With the news that Phil’s coming home from

hospital, Ben decides to throw him a party.

Nothing weird about that, obvs, other than the

fact not so long ago he was trying to kill him.

That’s something Phil may or may not

remember as he quizzes both Ben and Jay on

their argument at his hospital bedside. It seems

his memories of the attack might finally be

coming back to Phil, which makes terrifying news

for Kat when she finds him in her kitchen...

LONG LOST FAMILY

ITV, 9pm

The final episode of the series takes a

different tack from the usual

investigations and reunions, this time

with families making a public plea for

relatives who have gone missing.

People whose children or siblings

have disappeared as adults and who

the police have not been able to find.

The first appeal is on behalf of the

family of Matthew Bone, who

disappeared from his home in

Portsmouth in March last year.

Last sighted in Worcestershire,

presenter Nicky Campbell goes to

meet a police team to discuss his

disappearance and also talks to Matt’s

parents and sister Katie.

The second case is Simon Greaves,

whose car was found abandoned by

Bempton Cliffs, near Bridlington, East

Yorkshire, just before Christmas 2013,

and whose sister Rachel is desperate

to get answers.

Nicky also meets staff from Missing

People, a charity which the Daily

Mirror features on its letters page, and

which supports families as they deal

with the heartache of a lost loved one.

WORRIES Carole

on Stath

STATH LETS FLATS

C4, 10pm

This strange little comedy was a

quiet hit first time around, picking

up critical acclaim and BAFTA

nominations – and now it’s back

for a second series.

Stath (played by writer and

creator Jamie Demetriou) is the

hapless hero, working in his dad’s

estate agency Michael & Eagle

Lettings. However, his dad is now

distinctly hands-off, meaning

Stath is struggling with his

smarmy new boss Julian without

much support. His sister Sophie is

too busy working on her pop

career and his mate Al is well-

meaning but rather useless.

Stath’s left feeling even more

insecure when he sees the new

promo video Julian has put

together for the agency, complete

with choreography and racy

in-shower scene and so tries (but

obviously fails) to make a video of

his own.

Although he’s soon got bigger

worries on his mind when

colleague Carole (Katy Wix) drops

a bit of a bombshell.

BIG WEEK AT THE ZOO

C5, 8pm

WE Brits just can’t get enough of animals.

From aardvarks to zebras, and everything

in between, we love our furry, leathery,

feathery and/or scaly friends.

This week of programmes, coming from the

Yorkshire Wildlife Park, introduces viewers to

some of the incredible animals that live there

and at other zoos up and down the country.

We also get to see what it takes to look after

them – and witness the conservation work that

goes on at these places. Presented by Helen

Skelton and Nick Baker, there will also be

famous faces joining in on the animal

antics, such as Strictly stars Janette and

Aljaz looking after the elephants at

Blackpool Zoo, comedian Susan Calman

assisting a safari park in Stirling, the

Yorkshire Vet Peter Wright making

friends with a tapir, and JLS star JB Gill

helping with some hippo dentistry and meeting

a baby sloth.

The series will show some of the zoos’ most

adorable newborns, give an insight into

veterinary procedures and animal relocations,

and show the challenges involved when

you’re working with some of the planet’s

most endangered creatures.

Like the Chinese alligators featured

in tonight’s show : there are only a

hundred left in the wild and at a wildlife

park in Oxfordshire they’re putting

everything in place in the hope their

new male and female will breed.

Will it be love at first bite, or will one of them

get overly snappy?

We also meet a trio of one-month-old

endangered tiger cubs. It’s just too much cute.

CORONATION STREET

ITV, 7.30pm & 8.30pm

Bethany is faced with an unwelcome blast

from the past at work when a man she

recognises from Nathan’s parties comes for a

meal with his family. As they leave, his angry wife

accidentally reverses her car into Craig, leaving

Bethany feeling guilty that once again Craig has

been caught up in her mess and hurt.
