For the first time in Strictly history, all the contestants will get their closeup in movie week. It\u2019s also the first elimination of the series, with the result being announced on Sunday at 7.10pm. Before then, the dancers take us into the worlds of Beauty and the Beast, A Star Is Born, Pretty Woman and \u2026 Baywatch! Will John and Katya remain at the top of the scoreboard? Or is it another couple\u2019s time to shine? Hollie Richardson<\/p>\n<p>Wisdom of the Crowd<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">8.50pm, BBC One<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">It\u2019s audience v contestant in another round of John Bishop\u2019s upbeat new quizshow. \u201cHow many times is YMCA sung in the Village People\u2019s hit song?\u201d is just one question everybody needs to answer \u2013 but will someone steal the prize pot from the \u201ccrowd\u201d by answering correctly?

Brace yourselves for looks at rare daffodils, VE day preparations and an experience that will surely be familiar to all as British summer time looms \u2013 having to reset your 500 historic clocks. Alexi Duggins<\/p>\n<p>Paris Police 1910<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">9.10pm, BBC Four<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">As it concludes, this stylish French period drama becomes a courtroom saga, with dastardly manoeuvres in dark rooms replaced by the public joust that is the trial of the damned, elusive Marguerite Steinheil (Evelyne Brochu). At this point, the Paris press become more important than the police: who cares what the verdict is, when public opinion matters more?

Photograph: BBC\/Eleventh Hour Films\/Sony Pictures Television\/Jonathan Hession<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">Mark Bonnar and Patricia Hodge guest-star in the final series of this enjoyably meta murder mystery trilogy. Book editor Susan (Lesley Manville) is mentoring a troubled writer who is taking over the Atticus P\u00fcnd (Tim McMullan) detective novels, and this week she warns him of the danger of mixing real life \u2013 or rather, people \u2013 too much with fiction. HR<\/p>\n<p>The Golden Cobra<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">11pm, BBC Three<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">Named for a sub-par Indian takeaway in a small Gwent town, this lo-fi animated comedy is like a surreal Welsh take on Bob\u2019s Burgers. This marathon of six episodes includes some sly digs at the coal-mining heritage industry and a bombastic car chase featuring a TV detector van.

Photograph: undefined Film PR handout<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">A non-stop train is a terrific vehicle for an action thriller. The good guys and the bad guys are trapped together and there\u2019s minimal space to swing a sickle, so you have to come up with original ways to disable your foe. In Nikhil Nagesh Bhat\u2019s relentlessly bloody, often exhilarating Indian film, top commando Amrit (Lakshya) boards the New Delhi service to be with his secret lover, who is engaged to another, but this coincides with a heist by a family of bandits, led by the psychotic Fani (Raghav Juyal). It\u2019s the one against the many, but no prizes for guessing the result.
