But police dog Pico’s work ethic initially leaves a lot to be desired, despite JP’s (Tobi Bakare, right) best efforts.

Meanwhile, DI Mooney and his team are plunged into the world of “faith-healing malarkey”, as he so delicately puts it.

When Fabienne, a woman seeking a cure for blindness, drops dead during a faith-healing session, magnetic healer Steadman King becomes a suspect.

But surely he couldn’t have killed her live on stage in front of an audience? The truth, when it emerges, is surprising and emotional.

Big Cats, 8pm, BBC One

While the speed and agility of the cheetahs in the last show of this superb series is explored (they can run up to 58mph and accelerate faster than a Ferrari), it’s the city-dwelling leopards in Mumbai that instil fear into our hearts.

With dogs on the menu as an appetiser, humans are by no means safe…

You can take the girl out of Essex, but can you take the Essex out of the girl?

That’s the question explored in this episode that sets out to give TOWIE’s Gemma Collins (above) a make-under.

The experts want her to be more ‘fashion-forward’, but that means ditching her beloved bling.

At the halfway point, three fugitives have been caught and six are still on the run and the pressure is starting to tell.

Jamie Clark is in trouble after visiting his ex-wife, and father and son team, Alex and Bob Ayling
(l-r), are exhausted after sleeping rough.

But Magid Mah is cocky enough to send taunting messages. Some nail-biting moments.
