DO N’T I SS

Stockholm Requiem, Channel 4 Based on the brilliant Kristina Ohlsson’s novels, this gripping psychological thriller series follows unconventional criminologist Fredrika Bergman, who after a tragic car accident, accepts a job at Stockholm police’s special investigation unit to help tackle crime – but her presence is neither welcomed or wanted. On the same day Fredrika joins, a little girl is abducted from Stockholm’s Central Station and the reason behind it is far more complex than expected. It’s impossible to know who to trust.

Love Monster, CBeebies Brand new to CBeebies, this quirky animation for pre-schoolers based on the best-selling books by Rachel Bright, is bursting with fun. It follows the adventures of lovable hero Love Monster as he searches for the right thing to do in a world where he’s one of a kind. As well as being entertaining, Love Monster, who lives in Fluffytown, highlights the importance of kindness and the strength in diversity. Star Trek legend George Takei is the voice of Elder Panda, and comedian and actor Tamsin Greig is the narrator. It’s colourful and utterly engaging.

Diamond Dealers and Cockney Geezers, Channel 4 Go behind the scenes at Trotter’s Jewellers in London’s Bethnal Green! It’s packed with big buck bling and is a magnet for the rich and famous. It’s run by best mates Alex and Kallum, along with Judd, 26, who inherited the shop from his dad. Whether you’re looking to show off your wealth or impress your other half with a gift, Trotter’s is the place to spend your cash. There might be some East End accents, but it’s definitely not a Del Boy venture.

Winterwatch 2020, BBC Two It’s the major event in the nature TV calendar and it’s finally back on our screens.
