UNDERSTATEDD COMEDY
Mum, 10pm, BBC2
IT’S June, and Cathy’s having a barbecue, an occasion which, particularly for the men in her life — including son Jason (Sam Swainsbury, pictured) — proves to be a poignant reminder of her late husband, Dave. Michael hasn’t replied to an email Cathy sent him, and he’s trying to find a quiet moment to explain — but with the house full of the usual suspects, that’s easier said than done. Brilliant.
