If you’re more into programmes of the music than sport variety then flick over to Channel 4 for this feature-length look at the life of George Michael.

The 80s and 90s icon, who passed away last Christmas, narrates this intimate documentary himself and it looks well worth tuning into.

‘George Michael: Freedom’ gets underway at 9pm on Channel 4.
