Countdown to Partition 9pm, BBC2
The Beeb’s run of programmes to
mark the 70th anniversary of the
partition of India continues with
this one-off. The brutal tactics
and piecemeal concessions of the
Empire were fi nally coming to
an end, but it was already clear
that it was not going to be a
smooth transition from imposed
rule to independence, in part due
to the bungled borderlines of
the partition itself. Testimonies,
archive footage and experts tell
the not-so-distant tale. HJD
Quacks 10pm, BBC2
This rollicking medical farce
set in a convincingly pungent
Victorian London comes courtesy
of James Wood, co-creator of
Rev. A talented cast – including
Rory Kinnear as a fame-hungry
sawbones, Tom Basden as a
cocaine-fuelled dentist and
Mathew Baynton as a wide-
eyed alienist – amp up their
performances to match the
fevered plotting, while hawkish
Rupert Everett swoops in to
steal scenes as mercurial royal
physician Dr Hendrick. GVDelhi Cops 11.05pm, Channel 4
A rarely aff orded look at life
for overworked police offi cers
in one of the world’s fastest
growing megacities. With
crimes against women rising,
the government strives to
recruit female offi cers, and this
programme follows new recruit
Sonam as she kickstarts her career
at Delhi’s busiest police station,
quickly discovering clashes
between tradition and changing
society add to an already
overwhelming workload.
Truly arresting viewing. MGJChannel 4 Channel 5 BBC4
