Clean Eating – The Dirty Truth (BBC2, 9pm)
Last year, ‘clean eating’ was the diet of the moment – now Dr Giles Yeo is investigating if a ‘clean’ diet is the wonder cure so many of its proponents suggest it is. He meets Ella Mills (AKA Deliciously Ella) to find out more.
Everybody’s talking about: American Crime Story
American Crime Story creator Ryan Murphy has already green-lit two more seasons of the show – one dealing with Hurricane Katrina, the other with the murder of Gianni Versace.
Now it seems another is already in development, this time focusing on the Monica Lewinsky sex scandal. The Guardian reports that Murphy is setting up meetings with actors to play Lewinsky and Bill Clinton. Eeek.
