- Political and romantic deception in high-society Edwardian England colours the five-part miniseries "Parade's End," premiering tonight. Benedict Cumberbatch stars as Christopher Tietjens, an English aristocrat who questions whether the child he had with his cheating wife Sylvia (Rebecca Hall) is actually his. After going to war in France, he falls in love with the fearless Valentine (Adelaide Clemens) and becomes the subject of vicious rumours. Oscar-winning screenwriter Sir Tom Stoppard adapted the series from Ford Madox Ford's novels. Co-stars include Rupert Everett and Miranda Richardson. (HBO Canada)

- And how's this for a raw deal: Playboy Playmate Kendra Wilkinson has to look after reality TV star Kate Gosselin's eight children while Gosselin just has to look after Wilkinson's one child on the season 2 premiere of "Celebrity Wife Swap." (ABC)
