Lucy Liu stars in Why Women Kill, there's Champions League football, more Bake Off, Life and Married at First Sight, while it’s cheerio to How to Cook Well with Rory O’Connell and The Third Day . . .
Pick of the Day
Why Women Kill, 10.30pm, TG4
Here’s the latest show from Marc Cherry, the creator of Desperate Housewives and Devious Maids.
In a similar style - colourful and fluffy - this dramedy details the lives of three women living in three different decades, who are connected through living in the same Pasadena mansion and experiencing infidelity in their marriages.
The cast is strong, and includes the likes of Ginnifer Goodwin and Jack Davenport, but a ham-tastic Lucy Liu steals the show as Simone Grove, a twice-divorced, self-obsessed socialite married to Davenport’s Karl.
As always with a Marc Cherry show, tongues are firmly in cheeks, the clothes look great, and it offers the kind of addictive, diverting TV many people crave in these strangest of days.
