Me and My Guide Dog
Tuesday 9th June, 8pm
This two-part documentary narrated by Timothy
Spall explores the unique relationship that exists
between blind people and their guide dogs.
Gaining exclusive access to the Guide Dogs for
the Blind Association, which has been matching
visually impaired people to the ideal canine guide
for the past 80 years, the film highlights the
difference that such loyal animals can make to the
lives of those who cannot see for themselves. The
programmes also follow one particular litter of
pups from the moment of their birth, through their
training and up to the momentous day when they
are finally paired with the blind person they will
serve and protect. In the first programme of the
series, the pups are taken from the National Breeding Centre where they were born to spend their
first year with volunteer foster families across the country. Some foster families such as Tony and
Carol – who are caring for their 11th puppy this time round – are old hands, but others such as firsttimers Jean and Colin can find their puppies something of a handful! Also featured are stories from
guide dog owners such as Jill, whose dog Lucas led her to meet her idol Dolly Parton, and Jason,
whose dog Yozi saved his life but now faces a battle to save her own.
Home Fires
Sunday 7th June, 9pm
Acclaimed actresses Francesca Annis and
Samantha Bond lead an ensemble cast in the
penultimate episode of this six-part wartime
drama series. The series follows a group of
inspirational women in a rural Cheshire
community as the shadow of World War II casts
a dark cloud over their lives. The isolated village
feels a world away from the bloodshed and
battlefields, but is not immune from the effects
of war. By banding together as the Great
Paxford Women's Institute, the women of the
village discover inner resources that will change
their lives for ever. In this week's episode, Erica
(Frances Grey) is unexpectedly forced to reveal
what she has done to protect Pat (Claire
Rushbrook). Frances (Bond) takes in an
evacuee from Liverpool, but when she arrives,
Isobel (Gillian Dean) is not quite what the
household bargained for. Miriam (Claire Price)
throws herself into writing letters to friendless
soldiers, but her efforts may do more harm than
good. The stakes are raised in Laura's (Leila
Mimmack) affair with Richard (Philip McGinley)
after someone sees them together, whilst a
surprise visit from Adam (Mark Bonnar) brings
Nick (Mark Umbers) and Sarah's (Ruth
Gemmell) friendship into uncomfortable focus.
Some devastating news for Teresa (Leanne
Best) challenges her friendship with Alison
(Fenella Woolgar), and after Spencer's (Mike
Noble) secret is revealed, Claire (Daisy Badger)
must decide whether or not to stand by him.

Long Lost Family
Wednesday 10th June, 9pm
Davina McCall and Nicky Campbell continue with the new
series of the BAFTA award-winning programme which
aims to reunite family members after years of separation.
This week’s episode tells the story of Christine Gillard,
who for almost 50 years has lived with the pain of having
given up her first-born daughter - not once but twice.
Christine was just 16-years-old when she gave birth to her
daughter, Marguerite. As a young single mother, she
struggled to make ends meet and when Marguerite was
two she decided that it would be in her daughter’s best
interest to place her with a long-term foster family. Little
did Christine know that six years later she would be
offered the chance to have her daughter back. Was her choice to say goodbye for a second time
the right one?
Also featured is the story of 41-year-old Robert Lindsay, who is searching for the Croatian dad he
has never met. Robert was raised by his mother and grandparents in Kilmarnock, Scotland. The
only link Robert has ever had to his father is a letter kept by his mother when their relationship
broke down - signed ‘Fool Boy’. Now, with a family of his own, Robert is aware that his father has
missed out on 41 years of his life and wants to find him to make up for lost time.
The Enforcers
Tuesday 9th June, 9pm
This two-part observational documentary series
follows High Court Enforcement Officers as they
go about their work, evicting unwanted tenants
from their homes, offices and squats and
repossessing goods. Over recent years
household debt has risen to a record high, and
the enforcers have never been busier. Cars,
electrical goods and cash are seized and taken
away, but frequently not without a struggle. The
series shows the officers being verbally and
physically assaulted in the line of duty. They
maintain that they are carrying out an invaluable
public service, claiming that if they fail to collect
money owed to creditors, the knock-on effect on
other businesses and the national economy in
general would be serious. The series features
coverage of the enforcers dealing with highly
organised squatters, and the Traveller and
Gypsy communities. Even though there are over
100,000 designated sites to accommodate them,
the officers are frequently called in to clear
them off public land. Although the series
features tales of distress and hardship, the
stories are told with wit, humanity and warmth.
In the first episode, the enforcers are called in
to evict dozens of squatters from a multimillion pound office block in the City of
London, an officer in Wolverhampton is
assaulted while trying to reclaim a debt, and
in Dagenham, officers have to break into a
restaurant and seize kitchen equipment which
the owners had failed to pay for.

The Cube
Wednesday 10th June, 8pm
The award-winning game show presented by Phillip Schofield
continues its ninth series as two more contestants attempt to
claim the £250,000 prize money on offer to whoever can beat
the Cube. To have a chance of winning the jackpot, contestants
face seven random trials of skill, dexterity, reaction, wit and
wisdom, all of which take place in the intense environment of
the Cube. Slow-motion cameras catch the action from all
angles, and the special Gamefreeze cameras make time stand
still, monitoring the players Matrix-style. However, participants
have some help at hand – each contestant has nine lives and
can use Simplify or Trial Run once during their tests. Simplify,
as its name suggests, eases the task’s difficulty, while Trial Run
gives each contestant the opportunity of a practice round to get
to grips with the challenge. This first of this week’s contestants
is Welsh farmer Rhodri, who is hoping for a big win so that he
can purchase a prize bull. Next is barista Zoe, who has her
sights set on a dream holiday with her family. Olympic hero Mo Farah remains the only player in the
show’s history to walk away with the big jackpot. Can either of this week’s brave players beat the
Cube and take home a cool quarter of a million?

Thursday 11th June, 8.30pm
The brand new consumer
series with an unusual twist
continues this week as families
from across the UK give
honest, entertaining and
informative reviews of products
and gadgets that they have
been sent to test. The six-part
series takes the modern
phenomenon of customer
reviews to the next level by
allowing viewers to see
products put through their
paces in the family home
before being offered
unvarnished opinions from the
experts whose opinion counts
the most – real families. Each
show begins with
every home
receiving a mystery
delivery which
could contain
anything from a
widescreen TV to
the latest spray tan.
Over three days,
the families go
about their lives,
putting the products
to the test before
ITV.com
offering their honest opinions of
what they have been sent. In
an age where gadgets
dominate our lives more than
ever, this new format also
offers a wry and warm take on
how the British family copes
with technology. As well as
receiving impartial consumer
reviews, the viewer is also
allowed an amusing peek into
people’s homes as they grapple
with innovation and attempt to
get to grips with the latest
products on the market. This
week, the families try out a
home spa and test drive the
latest in go-karts, while the men
find out if a slimming vest will
give them a six-pack. Do these
products really make life easier
and live up to their claims?

Week 23/24
Vicious
Monday 8th June, 9pm
The unashamedly wicked sitcom about the elderly
warring gay couple who have shared a rented
London flat for nearly half a century continues its
second series. Starring two knights of stage and
screen, Sir Ian McKellen and Sir Derek Jacobi, the
plot follows the twilight years of over-the-hill actor
Freddie - whose only claim to fame seems to be that
he once played a villain in Dr Who - and former bar
manager Stuart as they spend their time reading,
checking on whether the dog is still alive and
snapping at each other across their threadbare sofa.
There is also the off-screen presence of Stuart’s
mother Mildred, who truly believed that he and Freddie were no more than just flatmates until the
end of series one. They are often joined by the eternally young-at-heart maneater Violet (Frances
de la Tour), who does her best to keep the pair from each other’s throats, dizzy Penelope (Marcia
Warren), with whom Stuart once had a very brief affair, grumpy Mason (Philip Voss) and their young
neighbour upstairs Ash (Iwan Rheon). In episode two, Freddie and Stuart decide to do something
about their lack of fitness and join Ash at his gym, where the instructor persuades them to sign up
for a hideously expensive course. With the couple starting to spend so much time working out,
Violet and Penelope discover how much more pleasant the flat can be without the constant
bickering. With Jack Ashton as Theo.
The French Open 2015 *
Saturday 6th June, 1.30pm and Sunday 7th June,
3.10pm
For the fourth year, ITV is
showing live coverage from the
Stade Roland Garros in Paris
of both women’s and men’s
finals on Saturday 6th and
Sunday 7th June. Last year,
Rafael Nadal won the men’s
title for the ninth time and Maria
Sharapova took her second
women’s crown. For British
fans, Andy Murray is a real
contender for victory this year
and is currently showing his
best ever form on clay, winning
his first tournament on this
surface in Germany and
following it up by
beating Nadal for
the first time on clay
to take victory in the
Madrid Open. The
Madrid win certainly
silenced the critics
who had
disparaged his
female coach
Amelie Mauresmo,
a former
Wimbledon
ITV.com
champion, as being not up to
the job of coaching a man.
However, the favourite will be
Novak Djokovic (pictured), who
has been the world number one
ranked player for two and a half
years and will need no
motivation as the French Open
is the only grand slam title he
has not won. With Rafael Nadal
not quite at his best, Djokovic
will certainly fancy his chances
this year.
The women’s final is more
unpredictable than the men’s,
which is dominated by the top
four, but Sharapova will be out
to defend her title, while last
year’s runner-up Simona Halep
and Serena Williams are likely
to figure in the later stages.

UEFA Champions League Final:
Barcelona v Juventus
Saturday 6th June, 7pm
Mark Pougatch and the team present live coverage of this
season’s Champions League Final between Barcelona
and Juventus from the Olympiastadion in Berlin.
Barcelona will certainly start as favourites after ending
Bayern Munich’s dream of reaching the final held in their
own country with a convincing 5-3 aggregate win in the
semi-final. Barcelona have won the Champions League
four times, most recently in 2011 under head coach Pep
Guardiola when they were on an incredible run of form.
After Guardiola they lost their invincible tag, but this
season Luis Enrique returned to the club as head coach
and with Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez and Neymar as
strikers, the team are almost back to their best. Italian champions Juventus have won the trophy
twice before, most recently in 1996, but they surprised Real Madrid in the semi-final, dashing
Spanish fans’ hopes for a Classico final. Head coach Massimiliano Allegri has maintained the Italian
tradition of concentrating on a secure defence, with veteran goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon a solid
presence between the posts. The Champions League winner’s medal is the only piece of silverware
missing from his collection. Giorgio Chiellini, Leonardo Bonucci and ex-Manchester United star
Patrice Evra are all top-rated defenders, while the wily Andrea Pirlo is the midfield general. But will
Juve manage to keep Lionel Messi and company quiet for 90 minutes?
Sunday Night at the Palladium
Sunday 7th June, 8pm
ITV’s revived entertainment
classic concludes its second
series this week with a fifth and
final helping of variety and
good old-fashioned

The brand new one-hour shows
have seen some of the UK’s
top comics and entertainers
taking over hosting duties to
welcome big stars from the
worlds of music and comedy on

famous stages. There have
also been some jaw-dropping
variety acts and a host of
surprises for members of the
2,000-strong audience. The
final show this series is hosted
by comedian Jack Whitehall,
who introduces music
performances from Simply Red
as they celebrate 30 years
together, fresh-faced singer
ITV.com

Hand, and Leona Lewis, who

her new single Fire Under My
Feet. Variety acts include the
incredible Japanese dance

Wrecking Crew Orchestra, and
American champion knife
thrower Jack Dagger and his
assistant The Unkillable Jenny,
who showcase their skills and
teach Jack a few tricks. Finally,
stand-up comedy comes from
the hilarious Sara Pascoe and
former Britain’s Got Talent
finalist Jack Carroll, who at just
16 years old may be about to
give compere Jack a run for his
money!

Love Island
Sunday 7th - Thursday 11th June, 9pm
ITV2 is set for a summer of romance as the classic reality
series Love Island returns with a brand new look, this time
presented by Strictly Come Dancing champion and new X
Factor co-host Caroline Flack. Caroline will preside over the
ultimate game of love as a set of stunning singles jet off to
sun-kissed Majorca in search of passion and romance. The
original series featured a host of celebrities, but this time
glamorous members of the public will instead live like
celebrities in a plush villa, with viewers privy to all the fun
and flirtation that ensues. There will be lots of fun in the sun,
but in order to remain in their paradise, the singles will have
to win the hearts of the public. The audience at home has
the power to determine who stays and who goes, until just
one couple remain. Caroline will catch up with each of the
departing cast members as the public decides it is time for
them to leave the island for good. Will any real connections
be made or will the pairings turn out to be nothing more
than holiday flings? ITV2 is the only place to find outL
The Vampire Diaries
Wednesday 10th June, 10.50pm
The sixth season of the US supernatural drama
series continues this week on ITV2. Co-created
by teen drama king Kevin Williamson (Scream,
Dawson’s Creek) and based on novels by LJ
Smith, the series tells the story of Elena Gilbert
(Nina Dobrev), a resident of the small town of
Mystic Falls, Virginia. When she falls in love with
a centuries-old vampire named Stefan Salvatore
(Paul Wesley), she is pulled into a dark
underworld of vampires, werewolves and other
supernatural goings-on. Elena’s ongoing
attraction to Stefan’s dark, brooding brother
Damon (Ian Somerhalder) has only added to the
teen’s problems. In this week’s episode, entitled
Because, Damon ponders what life would be
like if he and Elena were not vampires.
Meanwhile, attempts to stop a humanity-free
Caroline (Candice Accola) do not go as
planned, and when Bonnie (Kat Graham)
discovers that Damon has betrayed her trust,
she takes matters into her own hands,
setting off a chain of events that leaves
Damon dealing with the fallout. Elsewhere,
after being forced to face his traumatic past,
Enzo (Michael Malarkey) sets out for
answers and is surprised when he learns the
truth about the day he was turned into a
vampire.

The Real Housewives of New Jersey
Thursday 11th June, 10pm
ITVBe continues arguably the most tension-packed and dramatic
instalment of the ever-popular Real Housewives... franchise,
heading to America’s north east coast to catch up with the affluent
and glamorous garden state residents in the fifth season of The
Real Housewives of New Jersey. Juggling their various home and
business interests, charity work and media appearances, the ladies
are no strangers to the drama, decadence and spectacular
showdowns which the various series have become famous for. This
season has been no different, with family feuds aplenty, cat fights
galore and various brushes with the law ensuring another explosive
and compelling run of shows. This week’s episode is part two of
the current season’s reunion shows, in which US TV host Andy
Cohen attempts to keep the ladies in one room long enough to
thrash out their differences and take a look back at the events of
the past series. Topics include the feud between Melissa and
Teresa (pictured), the group’s drama-filled trips to Lake George and Arizona and the indictment
charges facing Teresa and Joe, which could result in one or both of them going to jail. With some
rather serious subject matter on the table, will Andy manage to keep the peace, or will there be
fisticuffs and further feuding as the wives and their husbands face off for the final time this series?
Regular viewers of the show will probably know the answer to that question!
Afterlife *
Friday 12th June, 10pm
Another chance to see this six-part drama series
starring Lesley Sharp and Andrew Lincoln, and
created by Stephen Volk (Ghostwatch), about a
woman with psychic powers and the academic
who becomes involved with her.
In the first episode, More Than Meets the Eye,
psychology lecturer and psychic mediums
specialist Robert Bridge (Lincoln) decides to take
his students to a clairvoyance evening where he
meets troubled psychic Alison Mundy (Sharp).
Robert is deeply sceptical of psychics and their
abilities, but he soon realises that Alison is a far
cry from the fraudulent psychics that he is used
to. Ever since she was a child Alison has seen
spirits, and after a near-death experience they
are beginning to take over her life. She moved to
Bristol in an attempt to start afresh, but the move
has not worked out, and as she lies awake at
night Alison cannot escape the
voices that cry out to her.
When Alison’s readings
provoke an adverse reaction in
one of Robert’s students, he
begins to study her with the
intention of writing a book
about her. But Robert is
completely thrown when Alison
claims to see the spirit of his
own dead son Josh, who was
killed in a car accident four
years earlier.

Cycling: Criterium du Dauphine Live *
Monday 8th - Friday 12th June, times vary
This week ITV4 continues its
commitment to cycling with live
coverage of the 67th Criterium
du Dauphine. Like many of
these classic French races, this
8-stage annual event has a
long history going back to
1947. It takes place in the hilly
and mountainous region of
Dauphine in southern France
and is seen as ideal
preparation for the following
month’s Tour de France –
Bradley Wiggins and Chris
Froome both won Dauphine the
month before their successes in
the Tour. This is certainly not
one for the sprinters but is seen
as an ideal workout for the
climbers. Wiggins is not
Jordskott
competing this year but
Froome is certain to be
in the mix, hopefully
along with Tour
favourites including
defending champion
Vincenzo Nibali and last
year’s Vuelta winner
Alberto Contador.
Unfortunately, both these
big names have recently been
in the news for the wrong
reasons. Contador was
involved in a very bad crash in
this year’s Giro D’Italia,
dislocating his shoulder, and
Nibali’s team Astana have been
threatened with closure by the
UCI after doping allegations.
Hopefully both will be available
Wednesday 10th June, 10pm
for this highlight of the cycling
calendar. Gary Imlach and
Chris Boardman are in the
studio, with commentary
provided by Ned Boulting and
analysis from the recently
retired British cycling ace David
Millar. Matt Rendell is the man
down at the roadside with the
microphone.
This critically acclaimed ten-part Nordic mystery thriller, making its UK premiere on ITV Encore, is
set deep in the ancient forests of Sweden. Seven years after the disappearance of her daughter
Josefine, police investigator Eva Thornblad (Moa Gammel, pictured right) is still trying to come to
terms with her grief and gnawing sense of loss. At the time it was widely believed that Josefine
drowned in the nearby Silverhojd Lake, but Eva knows in her heart that someone took her child on
that fateful day. Old wounds are reopened as a young boy goes missing in the Silverhojd forest.
Taking part in the search for the missing child, she soon finds herself revisiting the dark mystery
which still haunts her. As she is drawn into the
investigation, she learns that there are much
deeper and more evil forces at work than anyone
could imagine – but how far is she prepared to go
to protect the one she loves? Convinced that the
same person is responsible for the abductions of
the boy and Josefine, she is shaken when she
comes across a sick and mute girl in a road
through the forest in the middle of the night – a
girl who distinctly resembles her daughter. Also
starring Goran Ragnerstam as Goran Wass,
Richard Forsgren as Tom Aronsson, Lia Boysen
as Gerda Gunnarsson and Ville Virtanen as Harry
Storm.

The Lost Honour of Christopher Jeffries
Saturday 6th June, 9pm
ITV Encore presents another chance to see the two-part
drama written by screenwriter Peter Morgan which recently
won two BAFTA awards – best mini-series and best actor –
and is based on the true story of how retired schoolteacher
Christopher Jefferies was vilified for a murder that he did not
commit. When Greg Reardon (Matthew Barker) returned from
a weekend away to the flat in Bristol he shared with his
girlfriend Joanna Yeates (Carla Turner) to find no sign of her,
he contacted the police. It was just before Christmas 2010,
and the case of the missing landscape artist soon became headline news. Christopher Jefferies
(Jason Watkins) was Greg and Jo’s landlord and also lived in the same block. When Jo’s body was
found in the snow on Christmas Day, he was questioned by the police. Jefferies was later arrested
on suspicion of murder, but despite the lack of evidence against him, the tabloid press and TV news
channels pounced and named him. His face was splashed all over the front pages of the
newspapers as if he had already been tried and found guilty and he was the subject of a number of
defamatory articles. Jefferies was released on bail after a few days, but it was not until January 20
that another tenant in the same building, Vincent Tabak (Joe Sims), was arrested and charged with
Jo’s murder. Tabak was eventually found guilty in October. After being hung out to dry by the press,
the last thing Jefferies wanted was to step back into the limelight. But as it became apparent that his
life would not return to normal, he embarked on a fight to clear his name once and for all.
