WHAT can't you miss on TV tonight? Our guide to the must-see shows...

LAST IN SERIES! Tina & Bobby, 9pm, ITV

Michelle Keegan gets to flex the full weight of her acting muscles in the final instalment of this miniseries, which charts the destruction of Tina and Bobby’s once golden marriage.

From business deals gone wrong to waning careers and infidelity, the relationship crumbles under the strain and the former Corrie star impressively conveys her character’s emotional vulnerability underneath that feisty exterior.

Our biggest complaint about this three-parter is that it tries to cram too much into a short period of screen-time, meaning that big events get glossed over.

The last scene between Tina and Bobby is a sweet parting touch, though, and the final freeze-frame on Michelle’s face is fitting, given how she has once again proven herself as a fine leading lady.

Last year, you chose Joe and Jake to represent the UK at Eurovision – and they came 24th out of 26.

Here’s your chance to redeem yourself, as Mel Giedroyc serves up six acts wanting to compete in Ukraine in May.

And while you make up your minds, Norway’s 2009 winner – young violinist Alexander Rybak (above) – performs.

Choose wisely.

A tasty East Midlands derby in the FA Cup fourth round sees Premier League champions (we forgive you if you’ve forgotten that…) Leicester take on Derby at Pride Park.

Leicester are stuttering and Derby saw off top-tier opposition in the last round, beating West Brom 2-1 with goals from Darren Bent and Tom Ince (above).

Can they do it again?

Two perfectly sculpted stars, Gino D’Acampo (right) and Peter Andre (left), go head to head in another edition of the energetic show.

Gino, who performs Peter’s Mysterious Girl, really wants to win – so much so, he’s even prepared to display his own scribbled-on version of Peter’s abs.

How can Peter, who does his own take of Michael Jackson’s Bad, hit back?
