The Repair Shop (BBC1, 8pm)

JAY BLADES and the team get a visit from a cool customer today, in the form of Peter Mason from Herefordshire – who brings in an old-fashioned ice cream maker that belonged to his beloved granny Ethel.

Celebrity Best Home Cook – the final

Celebrity Best Home Cook (BBC1, 9pm)

The grand final of the celeb-strewn cookery competition and just three famous faces remain in the running to be crowned best celebrity home cook. It’s been a fun ride, proving again that there’s no format which can’t be improved by adding a bit of razzle-dazzle with a celebrity edition (or maybe it’s just that celebrities are more amenable to forming a bubble during these strange times). But who of the finalists will join oncology lab-tech Pippa and accountant Suzie, the winners of the regular series? First up there’s a butternut squash ‘Rustle Up’ challenge, before the hopefuls are asked to create the ultimate picnic to serve to judges Mary Berry, Angela Hartnett and Chris Bavin.

The volunteers end up learning everything from rationing-friendly recipes to dancing the jitterbug, while archive footage offers first-hand perspective.
