Strictly Come Dancing, 6.25pm, BBC One
You’d have to wonder where this show is going given that it’s being constantly dogged by incidents and claims.
The latest, of course, occurred last week when – in front of the TV cameras - contestant Wynne Evans put his hand around the waist of dance pro Katya Jones, who immediately moved it away.
This week the couples show off another routine in a bid to impress judges Shirley Ballas, Craig Revel Horwood, Motsi Mabuse and Anton Du Beke in the hope of avoiding the fate of last week's eliminated couple.
With this in mind they'll be hoping to stay as far away from the bottom of the leaderboard as possible, and hopefully clinch a place in next week's Halloween special.

The Blair Witch Project, 11.50pm, BBC One
