DailyEdge.ie rounds up the TV shows that you’ll be tweeting about tonight and talking about tomorrow.
Strictly Come Dancing (BBC1, 6.35pm)
It’s Movie Week, and the 14 remaining celebrity dancers will be performing routines inspired by the big screen. The episode will open with a group performance in tribute to La La Land, which is extremely fitting. #strictly
A Cry In The Dark (TG4, 9.30pm)
“A dingo ate my baby!” has become a sort of pop culture punchline, but this drama starring Meryl Streep and Sam Neill is based on the very real story of the phrase. Streep plays Lindy Chamberlain, a deeply religious woman accused of murdering her child when in fact, a wild dog carried it off.
Later… With Jools Holland (BBC2, 11pm)
One hell of a lineup tonight – The National, Morrissey, Queens of the Stone Age, and up-and-coming American singer Khalid will perform. #laterjools
Everybody’s talking about… Suits
Specifically, Meghan Markle’s role on Suits, which could be hanging in the balance. The actress has played Rachel Zane on the show for seven series, but has not committed to an eighth – and rumours are flying that it’s because of one Prince Harry.
Meghan currently lives in Toronto, where the show is filmed, but a source told The Sun she’s thinking of moving:
Meghan loved playing Rachel and feels she owes so much to Suits. But Harry can’t move to Toronto, so she’ll have to move eventually if they want to be together.
