8pm, Stargate Atlantis, Sky1
Keller finds herself in a bit of a pickle when she’s abducted by a Runner who needs her medical expertise. Ronon and McKay quickly spot that she’s gone missing and set off in hot pursuit, but the task shows all too clearly how much McKay relies on his gadgets to survive, and how helpless he is against someone instinctive like a Runner. It also leads to some revelations about both men’s feelings for Keller. This could get very complicated.
9pm, Ghost Whisperer, Living
Rick meets up with former girlfriend Nina (played by his real-life wife) and realises he might be the father of her 10-year-old son, a fact which provokes the wrath of his dead wife’s ghost. Man, she makes the spirits in The Exorcist look like a bunch of fairies! Anyway, as always the only person who can sort things out is Melinda, but the case leaves her with some personal demons to deal with, the main one being her own desire for children. After seeing what Kate tried to do to Rick with a bookcase, a piano and some chandeliers I’m not sure I’d be too keen to bring kids into the equation…
10pm, Chuck, Virgin1
We still don’t know when series two of the sassy spy comedy will show up in the UK, but presumably not for another 13 weeks at least since Virgin1 are choosing to air the whole of series one again, starting tonight. If you missed it first time round it is well worth a viewing, with Zachary Levi as Chuck, a computer geek who is catapulted into a new career as the government’s most vital secret agent while maintaining his cover among his fellow computer geeks at the Buy More Electronics store. Here’s the original promo from NBC.
