Every lunchtime, DailyEdge.ie rounds up the TV shows that you’ll be tweeting about tonight and talking about tomorrow.
Child Genius (Channel 4, 9pm)
You might ask ‘why did nobody think of pitting the country’s most precocious children against each other in a battle of wits before this decade’? And you’d be right to. The answer, of course, is ‘reality TV’. A new series begins tonight.
O Sé: A Legacy (RTÉ One, 9.35pm)
A profile of the life of Kerry footballing legend Paidi O Sé, who passed away recently at the age of just 57. With contributions from his family and familiar faces from the GAA community, this is likely to be an emotional hour.
Wimbledon (Highlights BBC Two, 8.30pm and BBC channels throughout the afternoon)
Strawberries! Pimms! Crisp tennis whites! Yes, Wimbledon is back, and this annual celebration of athleticism/Englishness is at full force in south London. If you’re not hooked already, start watching now and be sounding knowledgeable about net calls by Thursday. #wimbledon
