Here's what to watch on TV tonight: Wednesday

Here’s the telly that everyone will be talking about tomorrow.

DailyEdge.ie rounds up the TV shows that you’ll be tweeting about tonight and talking about tomorrow.

Confessions of a Junior Doctor (Channel 4, 9pm)

This dramatic documentary series kicks off tonight and looks at the huge pressures and demands that junior doctors face in Britain’s NHS. It’ll feature a nervous doctor on her first day desperate not to make any mistakes that could put patients at risks suffer after a dramatic turn with her first patient that was completely out of her control. It shows young doctors struggling through 75 hour work weeks, feeling demoralized by funding cuts that leave them severely overstretched and the reality of the conditions doctors work in.

Ken and Me (TV3, 8pm)

A documentary looking back over the career of Bill Roche, the longest-serving TV soap star in the world known for his role as Ken Barlow in Coronation Street. For any Coronation Street fans it’ll be a nice change to look at how playing this role for over 50 years has affected his own life and the ways in which his character has changed over the years.

How to Live Mortgage Free with Sarah Beeny (Channel 4, 8pm)

Is the secret to this way of life simply being rich and extremely lucky? Let’s hope this isn’t another series that shares “tips and tricks” that involve receiving huge loans and inheriting money from relatives. However it never hurts to get some new ideas on how to budget  and this show will be looking at a number of individuals who have managed to avoid paying a mortgage by building their own homes and living in barges to save themselves paying rent.
