AUSTRALIA'S GOT TALENT

Prime, 7.30pm

DANNII Minogue, pictured, Red Symons and Tom Burlinson return as judges of this second series of Australia's Got Talent a televised talent quest where anything goes.

Last year a gumleaf-playing muso stole the show, so viewers can expect anything from music, to dancing, to contortion again this time around.

MILLIONAIRE'S MISSION

ABC, 8.30pm

MILLIONAIRES swap their comfortable five-star lifestyles for the opportunity to help a Ugandan farming community in this new reality series.

Eight successful British business leaders have been challenged by World Vision to band together to try to improve the living standards of the community.

With expertise ranging from construction to marketing, the millionaires will be relying on their business skills to tackle the issue of poverty.

To help launch their ideas, the entrepreneurs have each donated $32,500 to a joint fund.

They will live in a makeshift camp without running water or electricity for three weeks to see whether they can help make a difference.

MISTRESSES

Prime, 9.30pm

THIS new series from the UK might sound like the same old guff, but considering a second series is already under way it might be worth a look.

Four female friends struggle with life, love and relationships in different ways and different circumstances.
