The best things to watch on TV this weekend, 21-23 January

Friday

Ozark - Netflix

It's been a long wait for the new series of Ozark, but Netflix finally launches series four today where we catch up with incredibly dysfunctional family the Byrdes.

Marty (Jason Bateman) and his wife Wendy (Laura Linney) who have been inadvertently drawn into the world of drugs cartels but have found themselves thriving as unlikely drug lords, particularly Wendy, were left in a bloody cliffhanger at the end of series three.

In the new series debut, the Mexican cartel offers them a grisly ultimatum as they fall ever deeper into their dangerous life of crime.

The Graham Norton Show - BBC One - 10.35pm

Tonight, chat show host Graham Norton is joined by Sir Kenneth Branagh who'll be talking about his awards-tipped film Belfast.

He'll also welcome Vicky McClure who's promoting her new TV thriller Trigger Point, Rachel Zegler who stars as Maria in the new West Side Story, and Scottish singer Emeli Sande will perform.

Saturday

The Masked Singer - ITV - 7pm

For the first time this series, all of the remaining masked singers perform in the same show as the audience and judges choose who will be unmasked next.

Series three has revealed Pat Cash, Will Young, Gloria Hunniford and Heather Small so far - who will be behind the mask tonight?

Sunday

Trigger Point - ITV - 9pm

Much-anticipated new ITV thriller Trigger Point stars Vicky McClure as a London bomb disposal expert with Jed Mercurio executive producing the series - drawing obvious Line Of Duty comparisons.

A tense first episode introduces McClure's character Lana and her work partner Nut (Adrian Lester) who are called out to deal with a bomb threat at a tower block.

But with red herrings galore and an increasing sense of doom, all while the tower block residents get more restless at being held back by police, the stage is set for a typically Mercurio explosive debut.

Dancing On Ice - ITV - 6.30pm

It's just week two of the competition, but there are already uncomfortable echoes of last year's disaster series as Rachel Stevens is forced to miss her first skate after breaking her wrist, and Bez is in isolation with COVID.

Still, the show must go on and Dancing On Ice has certainly dealt with more difficult weeks in the past.

Who will give Brendan Cole a run for his money and who will be voted out first in the skate off with Ria Hebden?
