Chasing The Saturdays is on E! and I'm basically scared of any channel that has an exclamation mark in its name. It’s too hard to work out what the proper intonation is. Is it a celebratory E! as in “E! Let’s have a party!”, or is it a more urgent “Look out, E! There’s a MURDERER and he’s RIGHT BEHIND YOU!”? Maybe we’ll never know.

However, Chasing The Saturdays – the fly-on-the-wall reality series about the girl group's attempts to crack America – is on E!, and some things are worth facing your fears for.

It has come to my attention that I have been dangerously underprepared for the forthcoming apocalypse. Like you, I didn’t have much of a plan for the inevitable and imminent destruction of our beautiful planet. I figured that I’d probably go and sit under a table with a few cans of beans or something. Might drink my own wee if it came to it. No biggy...

How incredibly wrong I was. Thanks to Nat Geo’s Doomsday Preppers, I now know that the world is ending SOON and that I need to act NOW.

Nick Knowles. Men want to be him. Women want to be him. Men want to be with women who want to be him. If I had a pound for every child conceived during a drunken late-night YouTube viewing of his 2009 war ballad charity single An Eye For An Eye, I conservatively estimate that I’d be a trillionaire by now. Nick Knowles isn’t just a man; he’s a complex phenomenon, like sand storms or gravity.

Nick Knowles returns to our screens this week with a new series of Nick Knowles’ Original Features. This is quite understandably the greatest news you will have ever heard.

In just a few months, Breaking Bad will have reached its definitive conclusion. I know, I’m sad too. I’m going to miss everything about it like crazy. But at least I’ve found a decent substitute.

Everyone loves uncomfortably creepy reenactments of things that probably didn’t happen, right? Of course they do. And this is why everyone should record Celebrity Ghost Stories immediately. There’s a bit in it where Grammy-nominated songwriter Skylar Grey gets sexually assaulted by a ghost. It’s amazing.

There are shows that make you want to go outside and explore the world. David Attenborough documentaries. Springwatch. Even that thing where Angela Rippon goes and tuts at badly maintained hotels. But Born To Kill? is not one of them.
