Thursday night TV - three to watch (or not)

Three shows on TV tonight - that might be counted as entertainment by some (and not by others).

BBC 1 screens the final episode of The Street - Jimmy McGovern's series - with a strong storyline looking at domestic violence.

BBC 3 is showing the semi-final of the Eurovision Song Contest at 8pm. The main event is on Saturday evening and will include Sir Terry's wit and humour.

Channel 4 releases 12 human monkeys in to the glass zoo known as the Big Brother house at 9pm. Will this year be excruciating, yet compulsive viewing?

I'm in Gatwick waiting for a flight, so I'll not see any of them! But drop me a comment about what you think if you catch any of them.

And a show you won't be seeing - Celebrity Pole Dancing.

BBC plans for a one-off special as part of the upcoming Sport Relief campaign have been scrapped after protests from women's groups saying that it exploited women.

Zoe Ball had been rumoured to have been involved.

Someone in the BBC will be taking another read through the Producer Guidelines.
