Excluding soaps, which 5 (or thereabouts) TV shows do you look forward to all week at the moment ?

Mine are:

  1. Life On Mars
  2. Shameless
  3. Who Do You Think You Are

.... and, at the risk of being stoned, until last Friday, an hour's worth of "gentle", "get away from it all" gardening with 4) Christine's Garden and 5) The Gardening Year, with Alan Titchmarsh.

As these have now finished to make way for the winter olympics, I'm getting my gardening fix from UK Style Gardens and old repeats of Home Front in the Garden with the gorgeous Diarmuid Gavin.

I look forward to:

Life on Mars
House

But also watch

CSI LV
Judge John Deed

But not quite as obsessively (will not leave, for example, after work drinks esp to make it home!)

I love University Challenge too but my enthusiasm for it has recently been curbed by a close shave - my organisation applied to be on The Professionals...the selection process was interesting and the production team are lovely....and thank God we didn't make it!

ITV2 at 4.40pm! But there is also the Tyra Banks Show on Living TV at 6pm too and it is just as good.

I'm beginning to sound like RTKM now!

Oh, I forgot Sea of Souls !

Desperate Housewives is one of those shows I've never seen because I was always doing or watching something else. Now it's in its 2nd series, I feel I can't watch it as I won't understand the background.

But I kick myself for not having watched it from the start.

Life on Mars
Desperate Housewives
House

Am partial to Sea of Souls, in a slightly self-despising way.

I have watched Life on Mars and think it's great - I don't watch much tv but that is great
