Sheridan

Sunday / ITV / 9.00PM

Few stars are as multi-talented as Sheridan Smith.

From her real-life roles in ITV biopics Cilla and Mrs Biggs to helming hit West End musicals Legally Blonde and Funny Girl, Sheridan has won high praise and accolades all round, including a Bafta and an OBE.

This week, the Lincolnshire lass is headlining her very own ITV show, simply titled Sheridan, in which she opens up about her life and career, plus performs tracks from her debut album (available 3 November).

Fans will recognise her versions of classics such as Cilla Black’s Anyone Who Had a Heart, but there will also be surprise covers, big jazz numbers, plus an emotional rendition of Dreamgirls track And I Am Telling You… that will blow viewers away.
