Celebrity Snoop Dogs (C4, 8.30pm)
THE celebrity property show continues, as we take a look around more famous homeowners’ abodes, guided by the dogs who live there. Specially kitted out with mounted cameras attached to a harness, the pooches tour their lavish homes and the secluded gardens their owners retreat to. In this episode, we snoop inside the homes of a Labradoodle and two American spaniels. But who do these loveable rogues and their beautiful homes belong to?
The Other One (BBC1, 9pm) FED up with Cathy festering in her bed, post-wedding cancellation, and stalking Marcus and Meredith on what was supposed to be Cathy and Marcus’s honeymoon, Cat decides the best thing to cheer up her half-sibling is to take her away on their own “sister honeymoon”. She’s got just the place in mind – their late dad’s favourite pub. At the solicitors, Marilyn and Tess learn that Colin’s will contains an absolute bombshell and that they must pass on some shocking news to their daughters.

The North York Moors: A Wild Year (BBC2, 9pm) AN exploration of the upland area of North Yorkshire, where heather-clad uplands and sheltered dales have been shaped both by the elements and by its people.

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
