Vernon Kay and Gabby Logan host the second round of the celebrity diving contest, which sees Boyzone’s Keith Duffy, presenters Paul Ross and Anna Williamson, singer Toyah Willcox and former England rugby player Martin Offiah vying for the next two semi-final places, under the tutelage of Tom Daley. The scores are awarded by judges Andy Banks, Jo Brand and Leon Taylor as well as the voting public – and while the bottom two are eliminated immediately and the highest-scorer gets an automatic semi-final place, the other two are forced to dive again in the all-important Splash Off. Who will join last week’s successful contestants Perri Kiely and Michaela Strachan in the next stage of the competition? (Also airing on ITV +1 and HD)

Top Of The Pops: The Story of 1976: Yesterday: Sunday 12th January: 9.00pm
Documentary examining how the BBC’s flagship pop show reflected changes in British music and culture during 1976. As the popularity of glam rock faded, no dominant musical scene emerged to replace it, leading to chart success for bands including Abba, Showaddywaddy, the Brotherhood of Man and the Wurzels – while outside the mainstream, punk rock was rapidly growing in popularity. Featuring contributions by Tony Blackburn, Paul Morley, Toyah Willcox, David Hamilton and Dave Haslam.
Toyah guests on Steve Lamacq’s Roundtable on BBC Radio 6Music in early 2014, her third appearance on the show in as many years.
