DCI Banks (ITV, 9pm)

SUCH is the demand for quality cop shows on British TV, it's hardly surprising to learn that actress Caroline Catz is playing her fourth arresting character, Detective Inspector Morton, in Leeds-based DCI Banks having previously played a police officer, with The Bill, The Vice and Murder in Suburbia.

Catz joined DCI Banks in 2012, because Andrea Lowe (DS Cabbot) went on maternity leave, and became the only character not to feature in acclaimed writer Peter Robinson's books, on which the series is based. The current two-parter reaching a conclusion this week is one of three original stories which use Robinson's characters and the dramatic landscape of Yorkshire.

"The Yorkshire landscape is a massive part of the stories and the series as a whole," says Catz. "It brings us a very dark satanic backdrop with ravines, power stations and under railway arches all used as locations this year. There is a layer of darkness about the landscape that lends itself to the crime stories that I think is quite interesting. I really enjoy filming in Yorkshire because it's so beautiful and diverse. It's been really great being back yet seeing all these different areas we haven't seen before. For me, it's nice to return to Leeds city centre at the end of the day. It's a vibrant city, the people are lovely and it has everything there."

This series sees the story delve more into Morton's private life, as Catz explains: "Helen has a few problems at home. They are totally unexpected and turn her life upside down. Although she has these difficulties she doesn't want to bring them to work. Instead she really focuses on solving cases and trying to stay on top of the policing. However, it is hard for her to avoid, and sometimes things from her private life bubble up and get out of control."

And it seems Banks (the always watchable Stockton-born actor Stephen Tompkinson) is about to find out a bit about those problems in tonight's concluding part of Buried, as he's sworn to secrecy when he discovers how his colleague's personal circumstances have changed.

But Banks has enough on his plate with murder witness Geoff (Richard Hawley) now a marked man. He puts him and his daughter Evie Ciara Baxendale) under watch at a hotel, while he widens the search for gunman Mullen (Nick Moran).

However, Mullen follows Evie's boyfriend to the hotel and when he sets off the fire alarm, he succeeds in drawing Geoff and Evie out.

Jack Deam and Danny Rahim are among the superb supporting cast.

TWENTY years ago, in Beijing, Hillary Clinton made that ground-breaking speech about how the world should treat women's rights as human rights.

Fast forward to the present day, and Clinton is said to be on the brink of announcing a second attempt at the US presidency, which makes this the perfect time for a documentary questioning whether anything has really changed for the world's women.

The programme hears comments from three of the most powerful women in recent history – Ms Clinton, Condoleezza Rice and Madeleine Albright, and reveals the struggles they had to endure in making a difference to the rights of half the world's population.
