Great Irish Interiors, 8.00pm, RTÉ One

Tonight viewers will get a look inside Farmleigh House on the outskirts of Dublin's Phoenix Park.

Once a Dublin residence of the fabled Guinness family, Farmleigh, is the official Irish state guesthouse.

The maintenance and efficient running of the house is of paramount importance to the state, and it is one of the finest houses in the care of the OPW.

Claudia Winkleman presents a brand-new general knowledge quiz show in which pairs of contestants must answer just one question correctly to win £100,000. But that one question comes with 20 possible answers - and only one is correct. All the contestants must do to win £100k is choose the correct answer.

In the first episode tonight, cousins Janae and Emma from Birmingham, and best friends Marie and Paola from London, try to answer just one question correctly to win £100k, in this seemingly simple but devilishly difficult quiz.

Coronation Street, 8.00pm, Virgin Media One

On tonight's trip to Coronation Street, Audrey's life hangs in the balance as she lies motionless in the barber’s having been there all night.

A passing Brian and Elaine hear a weak cry coming from inside. As Brian hurries off to fetch help, Stephen Reid emerges from a taxi. Breaking down the door, Stephen’s shocked to find his mum barely conscious.

Meanwhile, the Platts have called a family meeting to discuss Audrey’s drink problem with Peter. As they debate Peter’s advice, Brian dashes in with the news that an ambulance is outside for Audrey, who’s in a bad way.

Stephen’s furious with the family for failing to notice that Audrey was missing all night. As he leaves for the hospital in the ambulance with Audrey, Gail’s sick with guilt and worry.

On tonight's episode, the celebs taking part include Rylan and his mum Linda, Martin and Roman Kemp, Fearne Cotton and Gok Wan, Fred Sirieix and Fruitcake, Lorraine Kelly and Rosie, Stacey Solomon and Joe Swash, Zoe Ball, Woody Cook and Johnny Ball, and Carol Vorderman and Gyles Brandreth.

This line-up of stars will be watching the latest from Love Island, Alan Carr's Epic Gameshow: Celebrity Special, Fifty Shades of Grey, The Bridge: Race to a Fortune, Snowflake Mountain, Saturday Night Fever, and Spooked Scotland.

Always good for a Friday night laugh!
