TODAY'S TV WITH SARA WALLIS: Olivia Attwood exposes the dangers of weight loss jabs in shocking show airing on ITV2 tonight

Presenter and model Olivia Attwood, a Love Island alumni, knows a thing or two about the pressures to look perfect. Over the years, she had indulged in the “odd tweakment or two”, admitting she’s a bit addicted to lip filler. “I will try anything,” she says. She thinks Kim Kardashian is the ideal of perfection and totally understands this need to keep chasing a desire for the perfect selfie.
This all makes her the ideal person to make these documentaries, as she explores the booming business of cosmetic procedures - and the huge dangers - without judgement and with a vested interest. A warning, if you’re squeamish you might want to have a cushion ready as this series is a no holds barred look at nips, cuts, tucks and nauseating surgeries.

In this latest series, Olivia Attwood: The Price Of Perfection (starts June 12, ITV2, 10.05pm), Olivia investigates six different aspects of the cosmetic world - weight loss, smile, skin, the ‘Mummy Makeover’, men and ‘Spending £100k and counting’. Not only does she speak to patients and practitioners, but she even hops onto the table to try some out for herself - from the latest in energy treatments to the benefits of salmon sperm injections.
Starting with weight loss, Olivia says: “Big boobs, big bums and body positivity may have changed the way we feel about our figures at times, but as far as I can remember, being thin has and probably always will be, in fashion.”
Olivia interviews Kate Moss’s fashion model sister Lottie, who was hospitalised after misusing Ozempic. Lottie says: “I always felt compared to Kate. I felt a lot of pressure to be like her and to look like her. I got the Ozempic from a doctor who was giving it out on the sly with no questions asked. Within two weeks, I’d lost 6 or 7kg. I had a seizure. I was terrified. I honestly felt like I was dying. It wasn’t worth it.”
Olivia also talks to people using fat-busting injections (even when they don’t know what’s in them) and follows a woman to Turkey as she has 360 liposuction and a Brazilian Butt Lift. Frank, funny and relatable, Olivia is not afraid to ask the big questions in this eye-opening (and sometimes eye-popping) series.
Olivia Attwood: The Price of Perfection is airing on ITV2 tonight at 10.05pm.
Cold Feet stars Fay Ripley and Hermione Norris are the first in the spotlight in this new series, which will also feature Jo Brand and Julian Clary and Sam Thompson and Marvin Humes as celeb twosomes. Using advanced DNA technology and genealogy, the duos will unlock hidden secrets from their family trees as they discover amazing revelations about their descendants, fascinating stories of unknown ancestors, and meetings with newly-found living relatives.

“I do feel nervous,” says Hermione. “I didn’t sleep a wink, I woke up at 3am with my normal menopausal angst. I don’t know anything about my family.” While Fay adds: “I’ve been haunted by my ancestors. It will be interesting to see where the acting comes from.”
Their first instruction is to go to St Paul’s Cathedral, where Fay makes a discovery about an elite printer in her past. And in Chester-le-Street, Hermione finds out about a mining background and a prank that went terribly wrong, involving a loaded gun. Her ancestor accidentally killed his best friend, believing the gun was not loaded. Hermione says: “I don’t know how you keep breathing if you’ve killed another human being, your best friend.”
However, she then discovers the ancestor went on to rescue men and boys during a mining tragedy and then campaigned for safer mines, being hailed a hero. “I’m proud that I come from mining stock," Hermione adds. As Fay and Hermione's journey continues, they discover their ancestors also include a Swedish immigrant and a music hall manager.
Tucked away in an exclusive part of London’s West End is The Savoy, the capital’s first purpose-built luxury hotel - and its history is fascinating. When it opened nearly 140 years ago it was a groundbreaker. It was the first hotel in London to have electric lighting, ensuite bathrooms and ‘ascending rooms’ - also known as lifts! It also has the longest surviving cocktail bar in London and the theatrical lobby, with its marble floor and mahogany walls, sending you back to a different era.
Actor Nigel Haver says: “People go to LA for showbiz. You don’t have to, you go to The Savoy.” Sweeping through the history of the place, this documentary explores how The Savoy has always been a favourite of the rich and famous, including Hollywood screen siren Marilyn Monroe and our own royalty, Princess Diana.
She celebrated her 30th birthday party there with 15,000 balloons and Prince Charles famously didn’t attend. Frank Sinatra, Winston Churchill and Vivien Leigh have dined there, French painter Claude Money has painted from a hotel balcony, fuelled by two cooked English breakfasts a day. Today, if you have a few grand for the night, you can stay in his suite and attempt your own version of a Monet painting.
The police reveal they believe Nate was killed on the day he was supposed to leave for Shetland and Tracy says she was at Vanessa’s for that entire day. Later on, Vanessa looks like a deer in headlights when DS Walsh asks her to corroborate her sister’s alibi in an official statement. Mandy and Paddy persuade Bear to go and see Liam about his insomnia. Kerry throws Pollard a surprise party but is horrified to hear he’s planning to sell the barn.
It’s Kat and Alfie’s wedding day (again), but their concerns about Tommy and the video cast a shadow of their happiness. Alfie promises to talk to Tommy, but a series of mishaps distracts him. When Alfie also admits he has messed up several wedding tasks, Kat tells him she’s having second thoughts. Will it go ahead? Denise tries to support Yolande and Patrick through the crisis in their relationship. Joel invites Tommy to come over to his place after the wedding.
