SCOTLAND’S MODEL TEENAGER, BBC1, 7.30pm
WHAT chance does a boy from Govan have of finding fame and fortune? In this era of austerity, the best such young men might expect is a call centre job or college place, or they might strike gold and land an apprenticeship. Eighteen-year-old Connor Newall has found another option.

Spotted at school by a talent agent, he took a phone call one day in his maths class summoning him to a photoshoot and the glittering life of a fashion model. Young Connor had to put up his hand and say “Miss! I need tae go tae London.”

The fashion world has declared Connor to be “beautiful and ugly and crazy looking” and also “quite peculiar”, but perhaps that’s what’s required after decades of parading skinny, bland, pretty things. Now is the time for some Govan character, and Connor shares his stories of wandering through Milan and seeing his face on magazine covers beside Rihanna and Justin Bieber.

EASYJET: INSIDE THE COCKPIT, STV, 9pm
ONCE upon a time, air travel was a luxury and people would dress smartly for the flight. There were no stags, hens, or brawling in the aisles, and no fraught queues at security as we fiddle with plastic bags and tiny bottles.

Now, flying is cheap and accessible, but the price we pay is stress, anxiety, and long lines. The airlines, meanwhile, are no longer dealing with a small, elite group of customers, they have thrown themselves open to demand and fill it with more planes, more sandwiches, more booze, more scratch cards – and more pilots.

This series takes us behind the scenes as EasyJet kicks off a huge recruitment drive and they’re especially interested in getting more women in the cockpit. We follow their training to see how a shiny new recruit becomes a smooth, fearless captain.
