What to watch and review this weekend
What's on the box this weekend: June 4 and 5.
SATURDAY
Can’t Touch This (BBC1, 5.40pm) The penultimate episode of the series time forgot. A totally pointless version of Total Wipeout? Or a fun packed romp that many, many millions of people made the mistake of not watching?
Bang On The Money (ITV, 7pm) Lonely duo Rickie Haywood and Melvin Odoom host the final instalment of a gormless gameshow that failed to hit the spot. Why was it such a flop?
The Musketeers (BBC1, 8.30pm) Series 3, episode 2. All good swashbuckling fun? Or past its sell-by date?
SUNDAY
Top Gear (BBC2, 8pm) After what I thought was a low octane start, Chris Evans and Matt LeBlanc return for the second helping of the much talked about motoring show. Three pop stars (doesn’t matter who) help out on an SUV test in South Africa. Jenson Button takes Chris for a fast ride and Damian Lewis is the star in a rally-cross car. An improvement on last week? Or another step down the road to nowhere?
Wallander (BBC, 9pm) In the Beeb’s last ever episode, the Swedish detective is in reflective mood. Keeping his dementia diagnosis a secret, Kurt searches for his daughter Linda’s missing father-in-law. But as he hunts for the former submarine commander, our flawed hero’s condition deteriorates. Sad to see Wallander go? Or is he bowing out at the right time before it all turns stale?
Soccer Aid (ITV, 6pm) Forget the celebrity footballers (Louis Tomlinson, Nial Horan etc.), the manager of the England side is none other than Jose Mourinho. And as the big match unfolds at Old Trafford, Jose will be making himself comfortable in the Man Utd dug-out. Up against him is the Rest Of The World’s boss, Leicester hero Claudio Ranieri. Do you enjoy this annual charidee fixture? Or is it a good cause but a lousy programme?

The Musketeers has disappeared
The BBC made a stupid choice not to air The Musketeers tonight, It's a shame because it was quite good TV. But no they had to change things at last min confusing everyone.
Low gear
Couldn't finish it. Evans trying to imitate Clarkson was painful to watch. Loved the original, hate the new. Will wait for the grand tour to come out
