Weds BBC2 23.00 ~ 23.30

Now, I'm not a big fan of The Beatles, but this was taking things a bit too far. Seriously, I have problems with media outlets giving time to things like this. Nothing that can't be sourced from elsewhere. Thurs BBCR3 23.15 ~ 01.00

* A musician who has divided critics and audiences alike ~ some swoon over him and others hate him. I'd frankly rather wash my trollies than watch this, but hey… Fri BBC4 21.00 ~ 21.55

La Winehouse continues to hog both the airwaves and the tabs ~ here she is with a set featuring tracks from "Back To Black." Fri BBC4 21.55 ~ 22.55
