A second series of Mawaan Rizwan\u2019s zany comedy based on his Edinburgh fringe show from 2018 opens with the first two episodes back to back (the second is at 9.25pm). Jamma (Rizwan) is still jobless and sleeping on his mate Winnie\u2019s sofa. He is also not over his therapist ex-boyfriend Guy (Russell Tovey) \u2013 so decides to ask him to a party. Can a stranger bring them back together? Cue some surreal storytelling involving said (stained) sofa. Hollie Richardson <\/p>\n
The Dog House<\/p>\n
8pm, Channel 4
Canine camaraderie is an admirable species trait, whether it\u2019s inseparable chihuahuas Rio, Prince and Blue Boy, or the rambunctious tag team of George and Daisy. Still, rehoming a number of dogs at once presents a challenge, even for the experienced team at Woodgreen Pets Charity. Is there a garden in all of England that\u2019s big enough?

9pm, Channel 4
It\u2019s amazing how this comedy series manages to assemble lineups that continue to be exciting after all these years. But with Reece Shearsmith, Sanjeev Bhaskar and Maisie Adam appearing this time, they\u2019ve done it again. We\u2019re promised an episode of \u201carresting images\u201d this week, including Shearsmith\u2019s hand emerging from a bag. Intriguing. Alexi Duggins<\/p>\n
