Awkward dates, angry brides and a dazed Matt Damon: What to watch on TV this week

WE'RE in for a big one on TV this week.

A new series of First Dates hits our screens, Big Bang Theory star Kaley Cuoco sings her heart out against the voice of Frozen’s Olaf in Lip Sync Battle and our Olympic athletes are competing in the women’s marathon on Sunday – it’s all going on!

Monday

Mirror Mirror

Who says films are for Sundays? Kick-start your week with this fairy tale movie.

Everyone knows the tale of Snow White and her wicked stepmother, but this exciting take on a classic stars Lily Collins as Snow White and Julia Roberts as the wicked Queen. So you know it’ll be good.

Perfect for a relaxing Monday.

Tuesday

First Dates

Your favourite dating show is back, and so is Maitre D/love guru extraordinaire Fred Sirieix– yay!

Stay tuned for more awkward chat, flirting eyes and footsy under the table.

It's always a treat.

Wednesday

Don’t Tell The Bride

Brides give their (hopefully) future husbands complete control over their wedding.

Are they brave, or just stupid? We don’t know, but it’s great TV.

In this episode bride-to-be Holly is hoping for a warm, cosy family wedding, but her cowboy-loving fiance Cole has a Wild West theme in mind.

8pm, Sky1

Thursday

Dinner Date

Here is some easy watching for your Thursday night.

Jono from Tamworth takes part in the matchmaking show, dining with three ladies, before deciding which of them he would like to meet again.

The two he doesn’t choose get left with a microwave meal for one.

Friday

Lip Sync Battle

LL Cool J and Chrissy Teigen preside over another celebrity musical battle as Josh Gad and Kaley Cuoco lip sync to their favourite tunes.

We can’t stop ourselves singing along too…

11.25pm, 5STAR

Saturday

The Bourne Identity

We’re getting super excited for the release of the new Bourne film, and to get you in the mood, our film pick of the week is the original.

A young-looking Matt Damon is found floating half-dead in the Mediterranean.

Unaware he’s actually a top CIA assassin, he heads for Zurich to investigate his past but a deadly chase ensues as his employers try to wipe out their now renegade operative.

Talk about a bad day.

ITV, 9.30pm

Sunday

Olympics

We’ve avoided it all week, but now it’s time to dose up on Olympics fever.

Hazel Irvine introduces action from day nine of the Games, which consists of the women’s marathon.

Britain hasn’t produced a medalist in this event since it was introduced at the Los Angeles Games in 1984. Paula Radcliffe – who still holds the world record – entered the 2004 event in Athens as the favourite but pulled out after 23 miles in blistering hot and humid conditions.

Who will win this year? Come on, Team GB!
