Leicester's Impossible Dream – Gary Lineker's Story of the 2015/16 Premier League Season (BBC1, 10.45pm)

WELL Gary Lineker didn't present last weekend's Match of the Day in his underwear, as allegedly promised, if Leicester City the 5000/1 outsiders, got their hands on the 2016 Premier League trophy.

But there is still this programme and one more highlights show to go!

Despite starting the season as favourites for relegation, Claudio Ranieri's side took the title for the first time in their history after closest rivals Tottenham failed to beat Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on May Day Bank Holiday Monday.

Lifelong Leicester fan Lineker looks back at this incredible story which started last season with the club spending four consecutive months at the bottom of the table, only to win seven of their last nine matches and avoid relegation.

However, that great escape wasn't enough to save then manager Nigel Pearson from the sack in June, and a month later he was replaced by former Chelsea boss Ranieri – seen as an uninspiring choice by many critics.

However, the charismatic Italian introduced a swashbuckling style of play to the team, with former non-League striker Jamie Vardy and PFA Player of the Year Riyad Mahrez, among others, flourishing under the manager's guidance.

A Hollywood writer is currently working on a script to turn the Foxes' Cinderella tale into a movie, centred around Vardy's journey from a semi-pro player to England international striker.

Meanwhile, Lineker described his hometown team's achievement as "the biggest sporting shock of my lifetime I can't think of anything that surpasses it in sporting history. It is difficult to put over in words. I got emotional. It was hard to breathe. I was a season ticket holder from the age of seven. This is actually impossible."

And Lineker wasn't the only one delighted with Leicester's title triumph.

One lucky punter was paid out two weeks prior to Leicester being crowned champions, opting to cash out a £35 stake for just over £130,000 following the team's 2-0 win at Sunderland, while two other customers also received six-figure payouts.

Lineker adds his thoughts on whether Leicester's achievement is just a one-off or if it will change the face of the Premier League for years to come, with the so-called smaller teams now standing more of a chance against the big spenders.

If you're one of those who thinks it might be the latter, then the bookies have already slapped odds of 5000/1 on newly-promoted Burnley to win the Premier League title next season.

That's got to be worth a quid of anyone's money, hasn't it?

David Attenborough's Zoo Quest in Colour (BBC4, 9pm)

FIRST broadcast in 1954 and running for seven series until 1963, Zoo Quest was one of the most popular series of its time, launching the career of young wildlife presenter David Attenborough. The original programmes were thought to have been filmed in black and white, yet a treasure trove of six hours of 16mm colour film has now been unearthed, featuring highlights from expeditions to West Africa and what was then British Guiana. There's also footage from a trip to Indonesia to hunt for the rare komodo dragon.

"I was astonished," admits Sir David as he reminisces on the footage with his cameraman Charles Lagus.
