Bake Off carries the night, and the hospital holds on after it

4seven’s Friday primetime is a four-part relay, and the baton passes at 19:45. That is where The Great British Bake Off starts, with Pastry Week at 75 minutes, and it is the one slot on the channel with real pulling power. It is also a programme 4seven has shown on five days in this window, so anyone who has missed an earlier showing has had plenty of chances. Pastry Week is series 17, episode 6, and it runs straight to 21:00 with no break in the schedule to lose you.

The trouble is who else is awake. The Dog House is on More4 at 19:45 and Minder is on That’s TV, so the competition is mild and the case for staying here is simple: a long, undemanding hour and a quarter that suits a Friday.

Grand Designs opens the evening at 19:00, and the episode is South Herefordshire 2023, series 24, episode 5, at 45 minutes. It is a good warm-up for the baking and nothing more than that. Grand Designs turns up on nine days in the window, which makes it more of a fixture than an event, and it faces Police Interceptors, NCIS and The One Show for the same audience.

At 21:00 the tone changes. 24 Hours in A&E is flagged as the first episode of series 34, so it is worth a look for anyone who follows the hospital strand, though it goes up against M3GAN on E4 and Harrods: The Rise & Fall of a British Institution on Channel 5. Anyone who wants something lighter has to leave the channel; anyone happy to stay in a ward can stay put.

The 22:00 slot goes to 999: On the Front Line, series 14, episode 4. It airs on seven days in the window, and with A&E straight before it the night turns into two hours of emergency services in a row. That is a lot of sirens for one sitting, and I would stop after the first hour.

Late on, Gogglebox arrives at 23:00 for 65 minutes, a gentle way to close the week. The overnight hours are thinner: the Gogglebox for SU2C episode at 00:50 is the only thing there that stands out.

My pick is Bake Off, and it is not close. Everything else on the channel is either a repeating fixture or a hospital double bill.
