SIX HIGHLIGHTS FOR WHAT EVER MOOD YOU’RE IN

IF YOU WANT CEREMONY... TROOPING THE COLOUR SATURDAY, 10.15AM, BBC1

Last year, the public celebration of the Queen’s official birthday was cancelled in favour of a somewhat smaller event at Windsor Castle (right), without the pageantry of previous years; this year, the ceremony will be likewise pared down. Highlights are at 8pm on BBC2.

IF YOU WANT STUNNING SCENERY... GREAT BRITISH GARDENS WITH CAROL KLEIN MONDAY, 9PM, CH5

The horticulturist will visit eight glorious gardens in this new, second series, beginning with the fairytale grounds of Arundel Castle in West Sussex (right) – its 36 acres of grandeur attract some 180,000 visitors each year. But it wasn’t always so spectacular, as Carol reveals…

IF YOU WANT A BITTER END... INSIDE NO 9 MONDAY, 10PM, BBC2

Who knew that watching the Proms could be such a divisive experience?

IF YOU WANT A GRAND FINAL... THE GREAT BRITISH SEWING BEE WEDNESDAY, 9PM, BBC1

Stitching a child’s bridesmaid’s dress, turning soft furnishings into a festival outfit and creating an off-the-shoulder gown fit for the red carpet – yes, it’s the final of this fun and fabulous creative contest. Will Rebecca, Raph or Serena (right) walk away with this year’s trophy?

IF YOU WANT SCIENCE... HORIZON SPECIAL: THE VACCINE WEDNESDAY, 9PM, BBC2

With unique access to teams of scientists around the world – including US viral immunologist Kizzmekia Corbett (right), who helped to design the Moderna vaccine – this tells the story of the race to develop safe and effective protection against a virus no one had ever heard of.

IF YOU WANT ART... GREAT PAINTINGS OF THE WORLD FRIDAY, 9PM, CH5

This week, Andrew Marr (right) turns his attention to ‘the most iconic painting of the English countryside ever created’: The Hay Wain, by John Constable. He reveals the turmoil that lay behind this seemingly simple scene, and how the work inspired the Impressionists.
