Mary Berry's Absolute Favourites, BBC Two, 8pm

New series in which the evergreen baker lets us in on a few family secrets, namely her favourite dishes of all time, many going back to her childhood. Tonight she presents us with goat's cheese and shallot tarts (complete with walnut pastry), crab and cod fishcakes with a tomato salsa, and sea bass served with brown shrimp and caper sauce. Out and about at the seaside - you may already have detected a piscine theme - she dons a Breton sweater and goes shrimping in Botany Bay (Kent, not New South Wales) then cooks her catch in salt water on the beach. Finally she up in the coastal resort of Broadstairs for a Knickerbocker Glory.

Je T'Aime: The Story Of French Song, BBC Four, 9pm

Petula Clark is our guide for this run-through of some of the best French music of the last century. All the obvious names are present, such as Edith Piaf, Serge Gainsbourg and Jacques Brel (who was actually Belgian), but there's also room for discussion of the wonderful Yé-Yé scene which threw up pop singers like France Gall. And, because no programme about French song would be complete without the song the title alludes to, we'll get to see clips of both Jane Birkin, who became notorious after she duetted with Gainsbourg on Je T'Aime, Moi Non Plus, and Brigitte Bardot, who sang with him on the less well-known original version.
