TV tonight The Syndicate — Roxy and Gemma hatch a plan to corner Frank

The Woodvale Kennels syndicate are in Monaco, where they’ve tracked down newsagent Frank (Neil Morrissey) to quiz him about their missing lottery ticket. But when they get thrown out of his hotel, they need to find a way to make him come to them instead. As they plot to trap Frank, pregnant Roxy reveals to the rest of the gang how she got the money to get to Monaco. Later, she comes up with a brilliant idea to use Frank’s biggest weakness – his beloved Irish wolfhound Duke – against him. They’re taking a big risk – can they pull it off? Kay Mellor’s drama continues to be an entertaining cat-and-mouse chase.

All That Glitters: Britain's Next Jewellery Star, 8pm, BBC2 (NI, Wednesday)

BBC2 is puttin’ on the glitz with this sparkling six-part series in which eight jewellery designers (including a former footballer and a special-needs teaching assistant) will be proving their ‘metal’ (sorry) to industry experts Shaun Leane and Solange Azagury-Partridge. Tonight is all about silver, and the jewellers have to produce bangles with bestselling potential, as well as designing a pendant for a client’s mother to wear when receiving her MBE. Host Katherine Ryan provides warm support and dry quips, and we guarantee you’ll learn loads about the art of jewellery-making along the way…

He wants a stoma reversal – and he wants Sacha to do it! Feeling responsible, will Sacha agree to his demands?

Best film to watch on TV tonight

Super 8, 6.45pm, Film4

JJ Abrams pays homage to Steven Spielberg with a terrific sci-fi mystery that comes across as The Goonies meets The X Files. In 1979 Ohio, a bunch of youngsters, including Joel Courtney, Elle Fanning and Ryan Lee, are making a zombie movie when they witness a devastating train crash. Soon the military are swarming over the site and strange things start to happen.
