This is the telly everyone will be talking about tomorrow.

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

Catastrophe (Channel 4, 10.00pm)

Sharon is unsettled by a strange moisture patch at school, while Rob’s big boss at work visits London and takes a close interest in his career. Elsewhere, Fran and Chris make a major decision. Comedy, written by and starring Rob Delaney and Sharon Horgan, with Chris Noth guest starring.

Icons: The Greatest Person of the 20th Century (BBC Two, 9.00pm)

Claudia Winkleman and Nick Robinson present the final as the overall winner from the seven categories – Leaders, Explorers, Scientists, Entertainers, Activists, Sports Stars and Artists & Writers – is decided by the public. The seven advocates – Trevor McDonald, Dermot O’Leary, Chris Packham, Kathleen Turner, Sanjeev Bhaskar, Clare Balding and Lily Cole – each argue on behalf of the finalist chosen from their field of endeavour, hoping to secure the backing of the viewers, with the overall result announced at the end of the programme. Unfortunately, I was not eligble for the series as I missed the deadline for sending in applications. A crying shame.

Portrait Artist of the Year (Sky Arts, 9.00pm)

Comedians Jim Moir (aka Vic Reeves), Joe Lycett, Josie Long and Phill Jupitus are joined by actress Maureen Lipman and meteorologist Tomasz Schafernaker as they put their artistic skills to the test as they paint portraits of actor Billy Howle, author Howard Jacobson and entrepreneur Kanya King.
