Front Row 7.30pm, BBC2
The Radio 4 transfer has, so far,
done a competent enough job
of talking about the week’s
cultural highlights, although its
primary motivation seems to be
a terror of putting casual viewers
off by saying anything complex
or confrontational. In tonight’s
big interview, Samira Ahmed
talks to Kate Winslet about
her new movie The Mountain
Between Us, a romance/disaster
two-hander co-starring Idris Elba.
Giles Coren returns to the studio
presenter’s chair. JS
Britain Afl oat 8pm, BBC2
With wine cellars and lighting
controlled by phone app, some
of today’s narrowboats, as
presenter Mary-Ann Ochota says,
resemble “really posh apartments
... but narrower”. It’s all a long
way from the days when entire
impoverished families sailed
down the Grand Union Canal
with their babies strapped to the
chimney to stop them falling in
the water, as Ochota describes,
in another short but sweet
history lesson on those “HGVs
of the 18th century”. AJC
The Jonathan Ross Show
10.15pm, ITV
Compared with the zing and
bonhomie that characterise
Graham Norton’s chat juggernaut,
Ross’s tried-and-tested approach
can seem a little unsexy and
plain at times. Just as well that
the presenter’s guests this week
include London grime hero
Stormzy, alongside the reliably
lovely Annette Bening, plus Jamie
Bell, Bradley Walsh and Vince
Vaughn. The musical guest is
pop dullard Jamie Lawson, but
you can’t win ’em all. SH
