Make That Movie
10pm, Channel 4. Created and written by Sam Campbell, the breakout star of Last One Laughing, and directed by Joe Pelling of Don't Hug Me I'm Scared fame, this new comedy follows a director who transforms ordinary people's movie ideas into reality. The result is inevitably absurdist fun. First up is Mick, who pitches a story about a man and a woman who can turn into snakes. This leads to real snake auditions, a creepy intimacy coordinator named Sebastian, and a great pan pipe theme tune. Hollie Richardson

Film Choice
One to One: John & Yoko (Kevin Macdonald and Sam Rice-Edwards, 2024), 9pm, Sky Documentaries. This sign-of-the-times documentary covers 18 months in the lives of John Lennon and Yoko Ono after they moved to New York in 1971. It is a riveting snapshot of a febrile period in US history (Vietnam, Nixon, etc.). Pivoting around a benefit gig the ex-Beatle organised for institutionalised mentally ill children, it mixes home movies, contemporary TV footage, and remarkable private phone calls to follow the couple as they dip their toes in political causes, fashion, and a new life away from Britain.
