Mary Berry’s Simple Comforts
8pm, BBC Two
The BBC’s baking queen is back for a new series of simple, heartwarming recipes. Filmed before lockdown, this opening episode finds Berry in the home of haute cuisine: Paris. Dispensing with the starched tablecloths, she seeks out more basic fare, beginning with buying oozing cheeses to make a croque-monsieur before taking on crepes and buttery croissants. To finish, there is a centrepiece of a slow-roasted leg of lamb. Ammar Kalia
