1/4. Rolf invites three professional artists to paint a celebrity depiction. Tonight it's Cilla Black - which picture will best capture the entertainer's bubbly character? And which one will Cilla pick to take home?
Art: Star Portraits with Rolf Harris 6.15pm BBC1
Three professional artists, one celebrity sitter and Rolf Harris: it may not sound like riveting TV but when the first series was shown last year, it engrossed millions. The idea is that a celebrity has their portrait painted by three artists while Harris observes their progress, and chooses the one they like best. Last time around David Dickinson was moved to tears by what he saw. We suspect Cilla Black, the first sitter in this new series, may be made of sterner stuff but even so, it must be daunting to subject yourself to such scrutiny for five hours with only Harris to distract you.
