As part of Eden’s Space Week, The Moon: Our

geologists look back at the US/Soviet Space Race, and

The staff at Barnsley A&E are as busy as ever as they treat

patients young and old. Barry, 74, is rushed in struggling

to breathe, and with his throat and tongue swelling fast,

Dr Nick Mani is concerned he might need to put him in a

medically-induced coma. In the paediatrics department,

10-week-old baby Harry is rushed in with suspected

sepsis, and eight-year-old Neivh needs treatment after

a fall from a bunk bed. HHHJL

● COOKERY / 8pm / BBC2

NEW

Who better to

show you round

the world’s best

dining hotspots than a chef ?!

This entertaining culinary

travelogue sees four cooking

maestros join First Dates’

maître d’ Fred Sirieix to share

the secrets of the countries and

food that they love. First up,

Fred heads to Venice with chef

Angela Hartnett and visits a

tiny, tucked-away restaurant

where the food is so fresh that

the menu is finalised just

minutes before opening. Along

with ice cream, cake and

pricey-but-sublime coffee in

St Mark’s Square, there’s also a

stop at a family-run trattoria in

Burano where the risotto is

unrivalled. You’ll be booking

your flight to Italy before the

credits roll! HHHHCC
