If you only give 4seven one hour tonight, make it 9pm. Grand Designs is the strongest programme on a channel that spends its evening on houses, and it is on at 21:00 and again at 22:00, so a late start costs nothing.

The 9pm episode is Bedfordshire 2025, series 26, episode 2. It is the newer of the two, and it sits against The Celebrity Traitors: Uncloaked on BBC One and Gogglebox on E4. That is a real choice for anyone who likes talking over the telly, but Grand Designs is the programme that rewards giving it your full attention. The 10pm slot is South East London, from series 18, which makes the double bill a useful comparison of how the format has aged. The series first aired on Channel 4 and has 160 episodes behind it, so the back catalogue is deep. A third helping follows at 23:00 with South Herefordshire 2023, if the evening has got away from you.

The warm-up acts

Location, Location, Location opens primetime at 19:00 with Phil Spencer, episode 6 of series 46. That is a very long-running series and a dependable one, though it faces NCIS on 5USA and The One Show on BBC One. It is a good way in rather than a reason to stay.

At 20:00 comes George Clarke’s Building Home, from Dunoon, episode 2 of the first series. Of the three, this is the least established name, and it is up against The Celebrity Traitors on BBC One. Treat it as the bridge between the two bigger names, worth sampling if you have already settled on the Grand Designs hour.

What else is on

Daytime is a long run of A Place in the Sun and Come Dine with Me, the latter back-to-back from 15:00, and Come Dine with Me turns up twice today. Late on, Kevin McCloud’s Classic Car Road Trips ends the night at 23:50 with a Maserati 3500GT in Emilia-Romagna. It is a pleasant coda for anyone still awake after three hours of building work.

The simple plan: tune in for 8pm if you want the warm-up, be settled by 9pm, and use the 10pm slot as a safety net.
