Every lunchtime, DailyEdge.ie rounds up the TV shows that you’ll be tweeting about tonight and talking about tomorrow.
The Great British Bake Off (BBC One, 8pm)
We’re getting down to the business end of the baking now. We’re into episode seven of the series, and things are getting historical. The bakers will be challenged to master classic recipes from the Victorian era. Sounds about as easy as other weeks, then. #GBBO
Rush (Film4, 9pm)
The epic 1976 Formula One battle between James Hunt and “methodical Austrian defending champion Niki Lauda” is quite the thrilling watch – and not just for car fans. #Rush
Garda Down Under (RTE One, 8.30pm)
The third episode of the series follows Irish Gardai as they move down under to continue their police work. This week sees Michael Henderson fly to the Outback to collect a prisoner and bring him back to the big city. #GardaDownUnder
Everybody’s talking about… Empire’s Terrence Howard and his fairly bizarre interview with rolling Stone
The Oscar-nominated star did an interview with the magazine this week, where he put forward some interesting mathematical insights:
If one times one equals one that means that two is of no value because one timesitself has no effect. One times one equals two because the square root of four is two, so what’s the square root of two? Should be one, but we’re told it’s two, and that cannot be.
So, 1×1 = 2. Cool, Terrence.
Or switch over for…
- Celebrity Big Brother (TV3, 9pm) With the series in full swing now, drop in on the celebrities to see what not-planned-at-all shenanigans they get up to,
- The Internship (RTE One, 9.35pm) Not one of Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughan’s better efforts, let’s face it. But it’s an Irish premiere and will be worth a watch if you’re a fan
- Horizon: Are Video Games Really That Bad? (BBC Two, 8pm) An investigation into accusations that video games cause violence and are addictive. They’ve got the scientists in to have a look.
