TV tonight: the brilliant Ladhood is back to explore modern masculinity

Ladhood

10pm, BBC Three

The final series of Liam Williams’s brilliant autobiographical comedy opens with painfully relatable scenes for any socially mobile millennial who has moved to London in search of opportunity: “Thirty-four years old and spending most of my wage paying off the mortgage of a lazy fiftysomething who can turn up at any moment.” When his mum asks why he still lives in a city he can’t afford, Liam ponders the conundrum. The show continues to run its two parallel timelines, as he recalls the moment his teenage dreams of moving in with his friends were ruined by being invited to apply to Oxbridge. A sensitive and very funny exploration of modern masculinity. Hollie Richardson

And this is exactly what we came for, right?

The dark drama starring a glowering Aidan Turner continues. Joe O’Loughlin increasingly looks an embattled and dubious figure – and his obsession with the murder is leading him to take reckless and unethical risks.

Second Hand for 50 Grand
