What’s on TV tonight: Saturday 22 June, from the Doctor Who finale to Shania Twain
The Sun's TV Mag recommends the six best shows to tune into today
IF you're fully invested in the Euros, then it's worth tuning in today just to watch one of the world's best-ever players as Cristiano Ronaldo's Portugal take on Turkey.
And Doctor Who fans will be on the edge of their seats rather than hiding behind them tonight as this series reaches its dramatic climax.
Here are TV Mag's picks of the best shows on TV on Saturday 22 June 2024...

Former Emmerdale and Strictly Come Dancing star Kelvin Fletcher and his wife Liz, and Good Morning Britain's Alex Beresford and his dad Noel come together in an attempt to win big money for their chosen charities.

Euro 2024: Turkey v Portugal (4.15pm ITV1)

Still banging in the goals at the grand old age of 39, Cristiano Ronaldo is showing few signs of slowing down.
If fit, he’s likely to play a pivotal role in Portugal’s Group F clash against Turkey this afternoon.
While Ronaldo, Bruno Fernandes and co will go into the game at the Signal Iduna Park stadium in Dortmund as strong favourites, the city’s sizeable Turkish ex-pat population should make it an electric atmosphere.
Kate: A Queen For The Future (9.20pm C5)
6
While Kate, Princess of Wales, takes a break from royal duties following her cancer diagnosis earlier this year, this heart-warming one-off celebrates all of the incredible work she’s done since joining the monarchy.
Featuring archive footage, revealing insights and interviews with royal experts, we find out how she has adapted to protocol, helped transform the future of the royals and has devoted herself to her duties and the nation.
Delightful.
Later… With Jools Holland (10.30pm BBC2)

A fitting finale.

Country-music pop star Shania Twain is responsible for some of the best singalong hits, from Man! I Feel Like A Woman! to That Don’t Impress Me Much, and before she belts them out in front of 200,000 people on the iconic Pyramid Stage at this year’s Glastonbury Festival, she sits down for a candid chat with Dermot O’Leary to reflect on her impressive career.
