What to watch on TV tonight: Wednesday

Here are the shows that’ll be on your Twitter timeline later.

Every lunchtime, DailyEdge.ie rounds up the TV shows that you’ll be tweeting about tonight and talking about tomorrow.

Red Rock (TV 3, 8.30pm)

Ireland’s newest soap begins tonight and you can’t say you’re not curious. The build up has been monumental, but we’ll finally get a glimpse of the fictional Dublin town and a look at the feuding Hennesseys and Kielys. Will it be anything like Fair City? Hopefully not.

The Restaurant (TV 3, 9pm)

It’s the moment we’ve all been waiting for. Alan Shatter, cooking for guests at the Wineport Lodge in Westmeath. What a premise, what a time to be alive. Shatter will be cooking the likes of Matzo balls, grilled black sole, and prawns konikam for guests while Tom Doorley and Rachel Allen judge. Watch it with Twitter open.

10 Things I Hate About You (e4, 9pm)

Teen flick loosely adapted from Shakespeare’s The Taming of the Shrew, starring Heath Ledger, Julia Stiles and Joseph Gordon Levitt. Alex from Alex Mack is also in there, 90s kids. She plays a popular teenager who isn’t allowed date until her odd sister dates too, so she attempts to set her up with the school’s bad boy. And the poem. THE POEM.

Everyone’s talking about… Celebrity Big Brother

A new series of the never-ending show begins tonight and people are tripping over themselves to find out who’s going in before they actually… go in.

Here’s the line-up that seems to have the most traction, and includes Calum Best, Patsy Kensit, Katie Hopkins and gossip blogger Perez Hilton.

The rest? Beats us.

Tune into Channel 5 tonight at 9pm, if you want to see the new diary room chair in all of its terrifying glory.
