7:00pm – Sunday, July 18 on Channel Nine

Send in the Dogs looks at the police dogs of the West Yorkshire force fighting the battle against crime, from searching for drugs to catching burglars.

The programme also follows Eddie and Keela, two of the most famous dog detectives in Europe, who used to work for the South Yorkshire police because of their skills, both dogs have been called into two of the highest profile investigations of the past year – the hunt for Madeleine McCann and the investigation into allegations of child abuse in Jersey.

Not so much a change, but more a succession … Nine’s Sunday nights.

Underbelly: The Golden Mile concludes 8.30pm, June 27, followed by new CSI at 9.30pm.

The following Sunday – July 4 – sees CSI move forward to its new timeslot of 8.30pm Sunday, followed by new episodes of Cold Case at 9.30pm. At 10.30pm, Sunday July 4, is the Wimbledon Men’s Singles Final.

Earlier on Sunday night – the final of Customs is at 6.30pm Sunday June 27. The new series RBT premieres at 7pm. The following week – July 4 – sees RBT move to its new timeslot of 6.30pm Sundays. That will be followed by Send in the Dogs at 7pm.

60 Minutes, sandwiched between all of these changes, remains at 7.30pm as always.

With CSI not rating as well as it used to, and moving to 8.30pm Sunday from July 4, could explain why GO will be showing Adults Only Two and a Half Men at the same time. This programming should see Nine drop a little in shares, with GO to increase hopefully by at least the same as Nine drops. CSI, at the earlier time, however, could well grow back to rating the million plus it used to.

6.30 Customs – Final

PC Adele Gibson and her spaniel Diesel are up for a routine licence check, to see if spaniel Diesel is still as good as ever. But four-year-old Diesel’s place as the Met’s top drugs sniffer dog is under threat from a new kid on the block – Billy, a two-year-old English Springer Spaniel. Billy’s handler, PC Derek Beattie still believes Diesel and PC Gibson are the “best”, but says he and Billy are catching up fast.

Sgt Madden and Brodie catch a pair of teenagers who’ve hidden in gardens after vandalising cars, while PC Gibson and Diesel find drugs during a knife crime crackdown at nightclubs in East London, But, Billy the kid earns the plaudits as he and PC Beattie search a drug dealer’s flat in Brixton and find a loaded revolver and a stun gun.
