Michel Roux Jr finds

the best that Paris

has to offer

The Best Little

Prison in Britain?

● DOCUMENTARY / 8pm (times vary) / ITV

NEW

Step inside Britain’s most extraordinary little

prison – Jurby Jail on the Isle of Man – where

there’s one guard to every prisoner. In this first episode,

we meet Lorraine. Serving three years for knife crime,

she’s not lonely as her boyfriend, brother and best mate

are also doing time in Jurby for various crimes. HHHTE

St Vincent

● FILM / 11.05pm / Film4

Here’s Bill Murray and Melissa McCarthy both playing

to their strengths – he’s the overgrown slacker dude

babysitting newly single mum McCarthy’s kid, which

goes against every instinct in his body. It’s a rule of movies

that when a cute kid meets a grumpy curmudgeon, there’s

only one way things can go. So expect no surprises from

this charmer with a heart so gooey it really benefits from

grouchy Bill and acerbic Melissa’s presence. HHHHSM

Fred Sirieix takes

a very familiar face

off to France for

a gourmet tour

● FOOD / 8pm / BBC2

There’s a lovely reunion on

the cards for Fred Sirieix, as he

catches up with his old boss,

two-Michelin-starred chef

Michel Roux Jr, on a journey to

Paris to sample the culinary

delights of the City of Light.

Fred is thrilled when Michel

takes him to the swanky and

rather pricey La Tour D’Argent

• speciality, pressed duck –

and he also gets a peek at the

restaurant’s impressive wine

cellar, which was saved from

Nazi invaders in World War

Two. Later on, the boys track

down some more affordable

delicacies, including the best

baguettes in Paris, and Michel

even tries his hand at making

some himself for the very first

time! Then it’s off to a top

brasserie for a classic seafood

platter. Yum! HHHHCC
