sunday 7 Dragons’ Den BBC2, 6pm Baffling new inventions enter the den, making Duncan frown, Theo rub his spectacles and Deborah say “really” in a less than convinced manner. This week’s challengers include fat-free curry sauces, an ingenious Thermaskirt – a radiator made to fit and look like a skirting board – and recycled jewellery boxes.
Wife Swap Channel 4, 8pm Obviously the two wives have got to be polar opposites, otherwise what’s the point? Penny has been blind since birth and runs her home and two children in a more than shipshape manner. Vanessa has five kids, three internet businesses and a devil may care attitude. Even the visually challenged can see trouble ahead.
Dark Angel E4, 10.35am and 11.30am Recovery telly at its most enjoyable. Starring Jessica Alba as she left teenagehood as a genetically engineered renegade soldier in a post-apocalyptic future there’s nothing not to like. James Cameron created, lots of lovely fighting and ethics thrown into an unethical world, sit back and enjoy the toast and coffee.
