The slow burn drama that combines a shameful episode in US history with Japanese folk horror continues with another double bill. In summer 1943, patchwork spirit Yuko is not the only nightmare stalking the internment camp: a contagion is spreading fast, and rattled Major Bowen (C Thomas Howell) refuses to act. Graeme Virtue

The Other One

9.30pm, BBC One

“No way am I fisting a sheep.” Lauren Socha’s Cat isn’t keen on the idea of visiting a farm. But, as this funny, occasionally poignant class-clash comedy continues, Cathy (Ellie White) needs to decompress in her happy place. Cue unwelcome guests and a crushing blow for Tess (Rebecca Front) that might set up series three. Phil Harrison

Love Life

10.40pm, BBC One

More from the intelligent comedy-drama that proves dating isn’t easy, even for a seemingly perfect guy such as Marcus (William Jackson Harper). A bonus in this week’s double bill is the relatable subplot of his current love interest, Mia (Jessica Williams), dealing with the complex emotions an adult child has when their separated parents fall back in love.

Film choice

Emergency (Carey Williams, 2022), Amazon Prime Video
Two African American college friends – bookish Kunle (Donald Elise Watkins) and laid-back Sean (an impressive RJ Cyler) – have an epic spring break party planned, until they stumble on an unconscious white girl on their lounge floor. The film then flips between slapstick campus comedy and deadly serious racial drama as the duo (plus their nerdy Latino roommate) try to help her, while avoiding a run-in with potentially trigger-happy cops. Carey Williams’s feature makes its points succinctly and powerfully, but always with a sense of fun. Simon Wardell
