So much telly, so little time. Here are some programmes we’ll be watching in RTT towers this week.

Feel free to add your recommendations in the comments.

Scannal! – Monday 22nd – RTE1 @ 7.30pm

Last in this excellent series recalls the X-Case.

On the 17th of February 1992, the Attorney General secured a High Court injunction which prevented a 14-year-old-girl from going to England for an abortion, known as Miss X to protect her identity, the teenager had become pregnant as a result of being raped by the father of a shoolfriend. The court’s decision sent the media into a frenzy, began a storm of protest, public outrage and created political turmoil within Albert Reynolds’ new Government. It became known as the X-Case and it was to re-ignite hugely controversial abortion debates which surrounded the 8th Amendment to the constitution

Glee – Wednesday 24th – TV3 @ 8.00 pm

Not everyones cup of tea, and it took a while to grow on us too, but Glee is just the perfect viewing for middle of the week. Special double episode.

Finn and Quinn are forced to cope with being less popular when news of their baby spreads through the school, and Puck’s decision to skip football training to work on something for the club angers the coach. In the second instalment Will encourages the club to support Artie by performing in wheelchairs, while Kurt and Rachel battle for a big solo.

Dragons’ Den – Thursday 25th – RTE1 @ 10.15 pm

Richard Curran returns with a new series of the popular show. Brave Irish ONTROPeneurs will once again enter the den to try and persuade Gavin Duffy, Bobby Kerr, Sean Gallagher and Niall O’Farrell to invest in their business. Sarah Newman will be there to snigger and snort at the little people and, probably, end this series without having invested a single cent.
