Cold Feet, 9.00pm, ITV
Life descends into chaos for the Cold Feet bunch this week. Reeling from son Matt’s bombshell revelation, Adam attempts to right his son’s wrongs, but things don’t quite go to plan – surprise, surprise! Elsewhere, Karen’s juggling her own family problems with trying to keep her business afloat – and unwanted business partner Benjamin off her back! Meanwhile, Pete and Jenny have their own family drama to contend with when Jenny’s mum Barbara goes missing. Consumed with her career in recent weeks, is there more Jen could have done for her mum? And David finds himself put on the spot by someone with an axe to grind. Will he manage to worm his way out of this one? Rating: ****
Jack Whitehall: Travels with My Father/ Netflix
Having started in stand-up comedy at 17, Jack Whitehall feels he missed out on a gap year. So in this new series, Jack is heading to southeast Asia with his 77-year-old dad Michael in tow. ‘Very bad with foreign people,’ Michael also struggles with foreign food, foreign culture, and his son, Jack. Beyond the script, this series is travel TV at its best in the glimpses it catches of Jack and Michael’s relationship and the obvious bond they have. Rating: ****
One Mississippi/ Amazon Prime Video
American stand-up comedian Tig Notaro’s wonderful semi-autobiographical comedy-drama, co-written by Diablo Cody (of Juno fame), is back on Amazon for a second six-part series. As it begins, Tig is still harbouring feelings for colleague Kate (Stephanie Allynne, Tig’s real-life wife), while her straitlaced stepfather Bill is horrified to learn he has an admirer… At once bittersweet, moving and hilarious.
