Love, laughs and labels are the three themes of the week when it comes to our TV screens! From directorial debuts to familiar faces making a big return, you can be sure that you will be hooked to the following this week…

Michael McIntyre’s Big Show, Out Now, BBC iPlayer, Sunday 14th January: Aired on Saturday night, the Bug Show is one that can be enjoyed at any time of the week by the whole family. Michael will be sending texts to all in one celebrity’s phone, before surprising another whilst they sleep. Playing games with audience members too. A whole host of fun that will be sure to make you smile.

Dancing On Ice, 6:30pm, ITV One, Sunday 14th January: The most star studded ice rink is back for a new series. Joining Holly Willoughby this year to host is Stephen Mulhern, who looks ready to bring a bit of fun to the show. Get your skates ready!

Love Island: All Stars, 9pm, ITV One/ITV Two/ITVX, Monday 15th January: Remember Mitch from last year? Or what about Liberty from series seven? How about Jake, the one who dumped her? Well, if you do then you are going to love this new series, which sees old contestants fighting it out for their ultimate chance of love. The best bit is that they have all entered the villa before.

Cristóbal Balenciaga, 8am, Disney Plus UK, Friday 19th January: Many will recognise the brand name, however, do you know the figures behind it? Looking into the man who made it, there is sure to be a fashion lesson to be learnt here, with gorgeous clothes but deeper stories to be told.

The Kitchen, 8am, Netflix UK, Friday 19th January: Marking the directorial debut of Daniel Kaluuya, this London based film sees two young men fighting to protect the community surrounding them. Expect a gritty watch from one of the best on screen talents and writers from the UK.

Let us know what you have been watching and what you are most looking forward to catching over the course of the week, via our social media pages, as we would love to know!
