The Great British Sewing Bee 6
Channel: BBC UKTV (DStv 134)
TX Time: 18h00
Genre: Reality Competition, DIY
Amateur sewers compete to impress judges Patrick Grant and Esme Young, hoping to be crowned Britain's most sensational seamster.
The Great British Sewing Bee is back, with 12 sewers competing this time.
Joe Lycett kicks off 10 weeks of the most perplexing patterns, eye-popping transformations and stunning made-to-measure garments yet.
Scrutinising every stitch are Saville Row's Patrick Grant and Central Saint Martins's Esme Young, testing the sewers across a huge range of garments from rugby shirts to children's dungarees, flamenco skirts to a boned basque, via food fancy dress.
In their first week, the sewers are eased in gently with wardrobe staples that might look familiar but aren't necessarily straightforward to make.
For their pattern challenge, the judges ask for a wrap skirt, a garment whose clean crisp lines can only be achieved through precise cutting, accurate stitching and a judicious choice of fabric.
Next, the contestants' ability to make the ordinary extraordinary is put to the test in the transformation challenge, as they transform two plain men's office shirts into a stylish new garment to fit a female mannequin.
For the week's final challenge, the mannequins are replaced with human models as the sewers attempt to make their first made-to-measure garment - a tea dress.
This classic below-the-knee and above-the-ankle dress allows for interpretation, letting the contestants' personalities shine through whether they opt for a vintage or contemporary style.
It also proves to be a benchmark test of their ability to achieve a flawless fit and to impress the judges with the finer details.
Battling against the clock to showcase their skill and creativity, who will stitch their way to Garment of the Week, and who will unravel at this early stage, becoming the first to leave the Great British Sewing Bee?
Coastal Killers 6

TX Time: 09h20
Genre: True Crime, Documentary Series
Perhaps it's the sea air or too much sun.
But despite the jollity associated with sandcastles and ice creams, breezy promenade walks and donkey rides, many British seaside towns have a dubious reputation for hosting the most remarkable crimes.
Some of the most strange and terrifying murders ever recorded in British criminal history have taken place at the famous seaside resorts.
These include the grand hotels playing host to some of the deadliest murderers imaginable, and the seafronts doubling as stalking grounds for the serial killers.
Every summer, thousands of holidaymakers flock to the British seaside to enjoy the warm weather, pebble beaches and amusement arcades.
But there's a dark side to the British seaside, a sinister underbelly where sins are washed away by the tide.
The quaint and idealistic seafront is also stalked by killers who, like the sea itself, have no respect for human life.
This new season of Coastal Killers takes you on a journey to the cliff's edge, where the land meets the sea, and where life meets death.
At first glance, these seaside towns are all fun fairs, candy floss and breezy promenades.
Equally, when the carousel stops turning and the lights along the shorefront go out, there emerges from the darkness an underworld of murder and mayhem.
