Capital\u2019s Summertime Ball 2026<\/p>\n
4.15pm, ITV1<\/p>\n
From Robyn bringing the stadium down with sad banger Dancing on My Own to Jason Derulo whipping his top off for Want to Love Me, Wembley witnessed quite the pop lineup at this annual bonanza last weekend. More highlights that are hopefully included: Take That classics, Raye with crowd-pleaser Where Is My Husband! and a Mis-Teeq reunion. HR<\/p>\n
Trooping the Colour: The King\u2019s Birthday Parade<\/p>\n
10.30am, BBC One<\/p>\n
Regal hoopla such as this annual parade, where elaborately hatted soldiers on horseback celebrate the king\u2019s birthday, seem more absurd with every passing year. On the other hand, perhaps we have too much else to worry about to bother getting rid of it now. Either way, the BBC has nearly three hours of the thing, live. Jack Seale<\/p>\n

6.25pm, BBC One<\/p>\n
Manny is a butcher and wants to get a hair transplant in Turkey; Tina is 70 and dating (and that\u2019s all the detail we get). They\u2019re the first two contestants to fill in the blanks with the help of celebrities Stephen Mangan, Kimberley Walsh, Jonathan Ross, Craig Revel Horwood, Fatiha El-Ghorri and Nella Rose.

Casualty<\/p>\n
8.35pm, BBC One<\/p>\n
Flynn\u2019s troubled military past is on the backburner this week but there is still a major bombshell poised to hit Holby\u2019s emergency department. Prickly consultant Dylan has been making a genuine effort to connect with wannabe medic Matty. But how will he react when his secret son\u2019s ill-judged workplace fling is revealed?

40 Originals at the BBC: Volume 2<\/p>\n
8.35pm, BBC Two<\/p>\n
An amazing cover version can carry a song \u2013 and artist \u2013 into the stratosphere, rendering the original all but a curio (or cult classic). Here\u2019s the programme that showcases those first incarnations. While last year\u2019s Volume 1 included Neil Diamond and Nine Inch Nails, this week\u2019s roll call includes the Osmonds, Randy Newman and Chaka Khan. Ali Catterall<\/p>\n
Two Weeks in August<\/p>\n
9.25pm, BBC One<\/p>\n
It\u2019s the morning after the great big whopping party the night before, and Zoe (Jessica Raine) has the headache to prove it. When she rejoins the group, the housekeeper accuses one of them of desecrating a local temple \u2013 but will Zoe be able to keep her antics a secret? Deliciously escapist summer drama set on a gorgeous Greek island. HR<\/p>\n

Coming from a director whose first feature was Why Don\u2019t You Just Die!, the title of this rampantly bloody, defiantly silly horror caper suggests Kirill Sokolov has a bit of a one-track mind. An unholy stew of Rosemary\u2019s Baby and the zaniest bits of The Evil Dead, the film follows Asia (a kickass Zazie Beetz) as she visits exclusive New York apartment block the Virgil in search of her younger sister, Maria (Myha\u2019la), who is a maid there. But she realises there is something very wrong with the place, particularly after the residents try to kill her. The undead comic action comes thick and fast (the roaming eyeball is a standout), while Patricia Arquette\u2019s accent is a thing of mystery and wonder all by itself. Simon Wardell<\/p>\n
