Patrick Swayze: The Truth (Saturday, Fiver, 7pm) Starting out as a dancer for Disney before working on Broadway, actor, musician and performer Patrick Swayze went on to become a movie sensation by the end of the 1980s.

With hit films including Dirty Dancing, Ghost, Red Dawn and Road House under his belt, his future as a major film star seemed certain.

However, a crippling riding accident in 1996 saw a lull in his career from which he has never truly recovered, although later years have seen him receive critical acclaim for performances in movies such as Donnie Darko and Keeping Mum.

This revealing documentary sees journalist Barbara Walters visit the star and his wife Lisa Niemi at their ranch in California, and talk to them about Swayze’s battle with pancreatic cancer, with which he was diagnosed last year.

Wild At Heart (Sunday, ITV1, 8.15pm) It’s been another exciting series as the hard-working folks at Leopard’s Den have strived to keep the South African game park afloat, a task made even more difficult by last week’s storm.

It’s not all bad news though, as Danny and Alice are enjoying being together, but are doing their best to keep their new relationship a secret for the time being — unaware that Georgina knows that the pair have become an item. Unfortunately, their luck is about to take a turn for the worse when Alice turns to Vanessa at Mara for help.

The animal hospital lost most of its drugs in the storm and they need supplies to help dying elephant calf Tula. Vanessa provides the antibiotics, but is hurt that Danny and Alice are now together and says this is the last time she’ll help out the pair.

Heston’s Tudor Feast (Tuesday, Channel 4, 9pm) His attempts to turn Little Chef into one of Blighty’s most daring high-street diners may have met with controversy, but when Heston Blumenthal is given free rein to create a themed meal he really comes into his own.

A couple of Christmases ago he wowed the likes of Terry Wogan and Rob Brydon with a seasonal feast, and that paved the way for this often incredible series.

So far we’ve seen Heston create an awe-inspiring gold-leaf watch for his mock turtle soup, while last week he served up edible tableware.

In the penultimate edition, he welcomes singer Sophie Ellis-Bextor, food critic Jay Rayner, presenter Alex Zane, hotelier Ruth Watson and showbiz legend Cilla Black for a Tudor-style dinner.

On the menu is frog blancmange, bone marrow rice pudding and a mythical monster — inspired by one ordered by Henry VIII to impress the king of France.

It has the head of a pig, the body of a lamb and the tail-end of a goose.
