Tonight sees the final of the Euro 2020 tournament, while Love Island completes its second week, there's The Night Caller, Fleadhfest 2021, and the final episode of Ghislaine Maxwell: Epstein’s Shadow . . .
Pick of the Day
UEFA Euro 2020 Final, 7.00pm, RTÉ2
Darragh Maloney presents coverage of the showpiece Euro 2020 final between England and Italy (Kick-off 8.00pm), with analysis from Damien Duff, Dietmar Hamann and Liam Brady.
While there has been a massive hype around the England team's progress in the tournament, reaching their first major final since 1966, the Italians have been the team of the tournament.
Much depends on whether their ageing defence has the legs to keep going, and whether the England midfield can cope with Mancini's men if they get to move the ball around.
As ever, it'll probably come down to who's up for it on the day, and who gets the breaks. This game could easily go either way.
As a Roma fan, I just hope Italy win it for Leonardo Spinazzola.

Everyone to their own, eh?
Already, we’re at the end of week two of this year’s contest. Bray's own Laura Whitmore (above) hosts, but it’s always the contestants who steal this show, with shocks, scandals and whatever you fancy having yourself.
Manipulative? Certainly. Addictive? Even more than football.
