To the inattentive, a battle
between eco-warriors and
escapologists might suggest
some very leftfi eld kind of
sporting action. In reality,
they’re the two teams settling
down for the latest episode of
Britain’s premier word-wrangling
contest. Victoria Coren Mitchell
welcomes a trio of escape-
room afi cionados and a team of
environmentalists to the studio,
as they attempt to navigate a new
series of puzzles and become this
week’s verbose victors. MGJ

Jimmy Carr is your host for
this enduring takeover of the
afternoon quiz show format
by the near-the-knuckle satire
show. Alan Carr is the big-name
guest, but there should be some
good stuff from Cariad Lloyd
and Kevin Bridges as well.
Joining staunch good sport
Susie Dent in the dictionary
corner, meanwhile, are Radio X’s
weekend double act Elis James
and John Robins, who seem likely
to fi nd just the right tone. JRNaked Attraction
10pm, Channel 4
Every dating show should feature
Anna Richardson trying to keep
a straight face as she helps
would-be couples assess each
other’s naked bodies. Sadly,
it’s the last in the series of the
fl esh-revealing parade, and Judy- who worries her personality is
putting off suitors – tries to fi nd
love by gawping at naked men.
Then Craig, who wants to fi nd his
perfect woman by the time he’s
30, checks out the lineup. After
that, it’s date time. HV
