Noel Edmonds’ Kiwi Adventure
9pm, ITV1
Noel Edmonds is an unusual man. On the face of it, this series simply documents his attempts to open a bar-restaurant in New Zealand with his wife, Liz. But the fun is in the journey not the arrival. Edmonds is obsessed with new-age woo, spending time on his “crystal bed” and practising a workout regime he calls “tranquil power”. He’s also startlingly excited about his nail gun, calling it “a sex toy”, and regards Liz as “an earth angel” believing she was “a gift from the cosmos”. An eccentric cult classic in the making.

This very funny comedy’s clod-hopping central trio are under more stress than ever: they’ve killed a man! As Martin (Conleth Hill) pleads for calm and Diane (Rosie Cavaliero) tries to get through a sexually charged salsa-dancing date without arousing suspicion, Kath (co-creator Sian Gibson) goes and does the worst possible thing: engages with the police.

Open House: The Great Sex Experiment
10pm, Channel 4
This swinger show stretches the definition of the word documentary. Sharmayne and Jamie are typical Open House residents: shy, nervous and on national TV for reasons that feel unclear. Gay couple Simon and Chris – who are opening up their relationship with women – prove more unconventional. Hannah J Davies

Joker: Folie à Deux (Todd Phillips, 2024), 12.05pm, 8pm, Sky Cinema Premiere
The box office success of his supervillain origin story, Joker, was probably a surprise to its creator Todd Phillips. So a sequel is clearly a free hit for him, which explains why he’s gone Broadway or bust with a full-blown musical. It helps that Lady Gaga is on board, carrying the vocal weight as Lee Quinzel, who falls for Joaquin Phoenix’s Arthur Fleck while both are incarcerated in Arkham State Hospital. Their amour fou is realised in a series of fantastical numbers that are very entertaining, though the mental illness storyline is less effective. Simon Wardell
The Entity (Sidney J Furie, 1982), 12.45am, Film4
At first glance, Sidney J Furie’s 1982 film is just an exploitation flick riding on the coattails of The Exorcist and The Amityville Horror. But between the lines of the woman-in-peril plot, in which Barbara Hershey’s single mother Carla is sexually assaulted by an unseen supernatural assailant, is a story of controlling men. From Ron Silver’s dismissive therapist to the university parapsychologists giddy over a big new case study – and even the invisible creature itself – attempts to force Carla into a corner founder as she fashions her own responses to her trauma.
