Wednesday evening's TV sees everyone's favourite foul mouthed chef swap the kitchen for a game show studio with Gordon Ramsay's Bank Balance.

The programme won't be clashing with daytime favourites like Tipping Point and The Chase however, as it's got the late slot of 9pm - so the air might be turning blue on the new BBC show.

On streaming, Ginny & Georgia makes it's way onto Netflix if you're after something more bingeable.

New drama Ginny & Georgia hits Netflix on Wednesday as young mum Georgia (Brianne Howey) moves to New England with her two children, teenage daughter Ginny (Antonia Gentry) and younger son Austin (Diesel La Torraca).

The premise of the show has understandably drawn comparisons with the ever popular Gilmore Girls, but it's been teased Georgia has a dark past waiting to catch up with her so it sounds a bit more gritty than Lorelai and Rory's antics.

The first series, which will drop all at once, consists of 10 episodes.

The participants answer questions to build up stacks of different sized gold bars on a volatile balance board - but they must be careful they don't all come tumbling down and ruin their chances at big money.
