Pick of the day
First Dates Ireland, 9.30pm, RTÉ2
The most romantic restaurant on Irish TV throws open its doors once more as hit dating show First Dates Ireland returns for a second season.
Following on the success of the opening run of six shows, this season is double in size, and – so we're told - bigger all-round. This means more cameras, more love-seeking singletons and even more access to those intimate, funny, sometimes excruciating blind date moments.
The new season also marks the return of Croatian Sensation, Maître D’ Mateo Saina, playing Cupid alongside barman Ethan Miles and waitress Alice Marr.
In episode one country music fan Rachel meets up with carpenter Conor, while Paddy and Lauren go on their first date - ever! Awww.

Joan Rivers: Don't Start with Me, Netflix
One of the funniest women in comic history, Joan Rivers may no longer be with us but at least there are golden gems such as this to remind us of her greatness.
Never one to take a prisoner when a complete character assassination was possible, Rivers was a true democrat in that no one was safe from her cutting tongue and trademark put-downs.
In this live stand-up event from 2012 she goes to great lengths to take on everyone with her trademark wit. With her infectious energy Joan owns the stage from start to finish, leaving the audience in stitches as everything and everybody who's somebody are fair game.
