QUIZ REVIVAL Blockbusters, 8pm, Comedy Central
DARA O BRIAIN returns as host of this much jokier 21stcentury take on the quiz. It’s starrier, too, and opens with Strictly’s Oti Mabuse and Stacey Dooley taking on comic Josh Widdicombe — and it’s a much closer game than it looks like it’s going to be at the start.
ICONIC AEROPLANE Spitfire, 9pm, BBC4
A NEW documentary telling the story of the Battle of Britain fighter, which, by all accounts, is an absolute dream to fly — you can still take them up now, albeit for a price.

NEW COMEDY Frayed, 10pm, Sky One
‘I WANT you both to know that nothing is going to change,’ says stuffy Eighties housewife Sammy (Sarah Kendall, pictured) to her kids in Sky’s new comedy.
