What’s on telly tonight? Here the TV Times team of expert reviewers highlight the best shows on Wednesday 7th February
Girlfriends, 9.00pm, ITV
After Linda’s revelation that she knocked Micky overboard, we knew that her trip to Spain to identify a body would be eventful, but in this humdinger of a finale, the shocks keep on coming. As Linda arrives in the sun with Gail and Sue, she reveals her motives and the truth about her marriage. But after they attend the identification, the threesome find themselves in a surprising and dangerous situation. Sue soon comes up with a very risky plan to get them out of trouble, but are they brave enough to see it through? These plucky and thoroughly entertaining ladies have really come to feel like our mates so we’re keeping our fingers crossed that we’ll catch up with them again in a second series. Rating: *****
Eurovision: You Decide, 7.30pm, BBC2
Slap on the sequins – it’s Eurovision time again! It’s been 21 years since Katrina and the Waves secured the UK’s last win, but if anyone can revive our hopes it’s Mel Giedroyc, joined by 2015’s Swedish champ Måns Zelmerlöw. The pair introduce six contenders, hoping to fly the flag in Lisbon in May. Rating: ****
