This week’s picks take you far and wide: a murder mystery at Scribbly Gum Island, a revisit to Diddly Squat farm and a trip to Death Valley.

Big Zuu and AJ's Rich Flavours

For cousins, rappers, and foodies Big Zuu and AJ Tracey, money is no object. In fact, it’s the objective of their trip around the globe: spend as much of it as possible on the finest dishes each culture has to offer.

Their adventure will take them across East Asia, North America, and Europe, not just trying the food, but immersing themselves in the culture of those who eat the dishes.

The Horne Section TV Show

Thursday

Channel 4, 10.00pm

Do you ever finish Taskmaster feeling sad to say goodbye to little Alex Horne? Well, no matter, because Channel 4’s slotting in The Horne Section immediately after the show.

The sitcom takes inspiration from Horne’s roots in his musical comedy band of the same name that he has been performing with for over a decade, but dramatises Horne as an insecure musician trying to prove his work has artistic merit to a host of special ‘musician’ guests. The ship is helmed by his producer Thora (Desiree Burch, Too Hot To Handle) and Channel 4 exec Ash (Georgia Tennant, Staged), the latter of which is not Horne’s biggest fan.

Clarkson's Farm

Friday

Prime Video

Jeremy Clarkson returns to Diddly Squat farm alongside his right-hand man Kaleb Cooper. For series four, Clarkson is struggling after farm-hand Kaleb has been catapulted to celebrity status through featuring on his show. With Kaleb on a UK tour, Clarkson has to handle a lot more of the duties by himself – so seems like the perfect time to consider opening a pub. Luckily, he still has his wife Lisa Hogan, and pal “Cheerful” Charlie Ireland on hand to help.

The Last Anniversary

Saturday

BBC One, 9.00pm

The Last Anniversary is the latest in a line of Liane Moriarty’s thriller books to be adapted. This time, Nicole Kidman takes on the role of executive producer.

The story takes place on Scribbly Gum Island, a beautiful place steeped in secrets.  Teresa Palmer (A Discovery of Witches) leads the cast as Sophie, a woman approaching 40 who has just moved to Scribbly Gum, upon inheriting a house from her ex-boyfriend’s aunt, Connie (Angela Punch McGregor, The Last Anniversary). As Sophie gradually becomes part of the family, she begins to unravel lies surrounding a disappearance, and the baby left behind, who turns out to be her ex’s grandfather.

Death Valley

Sunday

BBC One, 8.15pm

This cosy-crime-comedy sees an unlikely duo form between retiree John (Timothy Spall, The Six Commandments) and detective Janie (Gwyneth Keyworth, Defending the Guilty). The apparent suicide of their neighbour draws the unlikely duo together. 

Retired actor John made his name playing a detective back in the day, so surely this should be a dream detecting team? If only they could just get along…
