The Great Celebrity Bake Off for Stand Up to Cancer (C4, 8pm)
Noel Fielding and Sandi Toksvig welcome journalist Krishnan Guru-Murthy, presenter Caroline Flack, actor Greg Wise and boxer Nicola Adams. The challenges are a fruity drizzle cake for signature, a graceful – or ghastly – technical and a towering biscuit version of themselves for the showstopper. Prue Leith and Paul Hollywood pass judgment on their baking skills before the winner is revealed.
The Murder of Jill Dando (BBC1, 9pm)
Twenty years ago this month, newsreader and Crimewatch presenter Jill Dando was shot and killed. The crime took place on her doorstep in the middle of the day and remains unsolved. This documentary tells the full story of the investigation, drawing on interviews with detectives, as well as Jill’s friends and family, and access to previously unseen photographs and material. The film looks back at how Jill’s murder shocked the nation – the Queen and then prime minister Tony Blair both paid their tributes – but also explores whether the sheer amount of public scrutiny also hampered the investigation. It explores the forensics, theories and decision-making behind the case.
Inside Britain’s Storms (STV, 9pm)
Although Britons are famously keen to talk about the weather, there isn’t always a lot to say about it, other than it’s a bit damp or mild for the time of year. That hasn’t been the casethis winter, though, as Britain has experienced floods, gales, lightning strikes and arctic snow fall, with two storms hitting during March alone. Using exclusive footage, eyewitness accounts and satellite tracking, presenter Becky Mantin follows some of these big weather events from the Met Office to the areas that bore the brunt of them, and in the process reveals the worst Mother Nature can throw at us. But can the documentary tell us whether these weather events will become even more common in the future and if we’ll all still be moaning if we can get another long, hot summer?
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
