Such Brave Girls

11.40pm, BBC One
Kat Sadler’s Bafta-winning cringe-fest about the small screen’s most dysfunctional family returns with its rapid-fire outrageous comedy. Josie (Sadler) has started art school and has a crush, but her unbearable, debt-ridden mother Deb (Louise Brealey) and demanding sister Billie (Lizzie Davidson) remind her she’s meant to be in a relationship with Seb (Freddie Meredith). Cue an unpredictable and hilariously tragic episode of failed seductions and missing teeth. Hollie Richardson

Supercruising: Life at Sea

8pm, Channel 4
A confusingly uninspiring new documentary series that follows staff and travellers on two luxury cruises. It’s not that you are left wanting a disaster to happen, just something a tad more dramatic than a basket-sleigh-riding excursion in Madeira. Where’s Jane McDonald when you need her? HR

Outrageous

9pm, U&Drama
The superb period drama about the scandalous lives of the six Mitford sisters gets chillingly prescient as the growing fascist movement divides the family. Nancy attends an Oswald Mosley rally as research for her next book, Unity moves to Munich in the hope of meeting Hitler, and Jessica is inspired by her cousin, who has left school to join the communist cause. HR

Taskmaster

9pm, Channel 4
Chaos reigns. Of course it does – it’s the grand final of this purely delightful show. While Rosie Ramsey sports a wooden box like an oversized fascinator, Mathew Baynton menaces a puppy, Jason Mantzoukas and Stevie Martin start a local business and Fatiha El-Ghorri kicks a door in. There can be only one winner. Ali Catterall

Poker Face

9pm, Sky Max

Justin Theroux joins a roster of top-tier guest stars for the penultimate episode of Natasha Lyonne’s hit whydunnit caper. This time, prolific amateur sleuth Charlie (Lyonne) helps a mate who is the prime suspect in a murder at a wedding. HR

Pushers

10pm, Channel 4
The final two-parter of Rosie Jones’s eccentric comedy about disabled drug dealers. Emily (Jones) finds herself in danger when she meets her girlfriend’s dad, who is none other than fearsome rival crime boss Lennie Kennedy. Cue a finale filled with mayhem, blood and Emily forgetting to wipe her sophisticated plan off a hospital whiteboard. Hannah J Davies
