BBC2, 9pm
This is all about blood and guts on the kitchen floor as egomaniac chefs fight it out for a much-prized Michelin star.
Culinary kingpin Marco Pierre White, ever the controversialist, tells us he has no desire for these gongs and, in fact, gave back his three Michelin stars.

ON THE HUNT
BBC1, 9pm
A down and dirty insight into how a crack police team tracks a number of well-organised criminal gangs.
The gangs are shipping stolen luxury cars abroad complete with sophisticated number-plate changing systems. It's all very high-tech and dangerous with millions of euro to be made.
FEMALE FORTUNES
BBC2, 11.20pm
A look at the Women's Liberation Movement of the 70s which brought much-needed improvements in the plight of the fairer sex.
Most importantly, barriers in the workplace were gradually removed and changes were made in the marriage laws.
