This week’s best telly includes the return of Shipwrecked, the start of new Channel 4 comedy drama Pure and the start of the live shows for The Greatest Dancer.
Here are 7 shows you can’t miss this week...
1. Cold Feet
Monday 28th January at 9pm on ITV
After last week's superb turn from Fay Ripley after Jenny found out that she has breast cancer, this week she's determined to make the most of the festival experience as they all head to a music festival to support young Adam and his band.
But with Jenny living it up with Ellie and her college mates, Pete’s suspicions grow about Jenny’s erratic behaviour and she struggles to keep a lid on her secret.
Adam realises the baton has well and truly been passed to Matt when he’s the one chasing girls and Adam’s at a loose end. He challenges Karen to relive their youth and the two of them try to out-festival each other with unexpected consequences.
David’s bank balance is critically low; the silver lining of his break-up with Nikki is that she booked a swanky yurt to stay in for the festival. He keeps his split with Nikki under wraps, too embarrassed to yet again need to rely on his friend’s charity. David makes friends with a cookie seller, not realising how much of a taste of festival life he’s about to get.

2. Shipwrecked
Monday 28th January - Friday 1st February at 9pm on E4
It was the series that brought us Jeff Brazier, Stephen Bear and Sarah-Jane Crawford and now seven years since it was last on air, Shipwrecked is returning to our screens for a brand new series.
Voiced by Vick Hope, the new series will be set on two remote islands, two rival tribes with the Tigers and the Sharks battling against each other in the ultimate popularity contest in paradise.
In each episode new arrivals land ashore where they’ll spend a day and night with each tribe. Both the Tigers and Sharks will do whatever it takes to win the new arrivals over in a bid to prove that they are the better island.
At the end of each episode the new arrivals must decide which tribe they want to join...but in Shipwrecked, anything can happen. At the end of this incredible adventure the biggest tribe will win the huge cash prize of £50,000.

3. Two Doors Down
Monday 28th January at 10pm on BBC Two
This week in Two Doors Down, Gordon's parents Graham and Sandra visit Scotland from Yorkshire and Ian brings them to Latimer Crescent to meet Beth and Eric.
Christine turns up with her own take on the Scottish attractions to visit, at which point Ian and Gordon grab the opportunity to pop out for some herbal tea for Sandra.
When they get back, Cathy and Colin have arrived after sensing there may be the chance of a drink, and the chat has turned to further delights for visitors to Scotland. And the men step outside to admire Graham's beautifully restored vintage car.
Despite the interference of the unexpected guests, the tea party is all going rather well until the conversation turns to Scotland's sporting successes.
