Our gal Mairéad Tyers is back for a second season of the hit comedy about being young and finding your feet in a confusing world, when all you’ll ever be is ‘ordinary’. Season two picks up where season one spectacula­rly left off, following Jen (Máiréad Tyers) on her power journey as she enrols as a client at the power clinic. Jen soon discovers, however, that finding her power isn’t going to be as easy as she had hoped; and things in the rest of her life aren’t smooth sailing either.

Radio: The Artificial Human, Monday, BBC Radio Four

Every day, we read something new about Artificial Intelligen­ce – it’ll take our jobs, it’ll teach our kids, it knows more about us than we do ourselves, but how much of that is hype, and how much is, or will be reality? In this new series, Aleks Krotoski and Kevin Fong set out to ‘solve’ AI. Or at the very least, to answer our questions on all things artificial-intelligen­ce-related. These are the questions that really matter to us – is AI smarter than me? Could AI make me money? Will AI save my life or make me its slave?
