WHAT TO WATCH

Sky Comedy, 10pm & 10.30pm

More gloriously relatable family comedy as Martin Freeman and Daisy Haggard return for a fourth and, sadly, final series as hard-pressed parents Paul and Ally. It may be only 12 months since we last saw them on screen, but their lives have leapt forward by five years; they’re still getting used to the split that occurred last season and with their children Luke and Ava presenting a new set of challenges as they approach, and reach, adulthood.

It’s Luke, now 18 (played by Ladhood’s Oscar Kennedy), who’s the pivotal character in tonight’s enjoyable double-bill, dropping a major bombshell during an already tense Christmas lunch. At 16, Ava (Zoë Athena) also has a big storyline to pursue later in the series but for now the Christmas setting proves an ideal vehicle for revisiting the stresses and strains of the existing family dynamic. It also provides a useful reintroduction to all the main players, including Ally’s brittle mother,

Leah (Stella Gonet), Paul’s earthbound parents, Jackie and Jim (Joanna Bacon, Alun Armstrong), as well as a smattering of new characters including Luke’s girlfriend, Maya (Deepica Stephen), and her parents, Meena (Sunetra Sarker) and

Sunil (Nitin Ganatra). Gerard O’Donovan

Tonight, Symeon Brown reports on a horrific case from Kenya where, since March this year, more than 400 bodies have been exhumed from mass graves in a remote forest where Pastor Paul Mackenzie is accused of running a doomsday cult encouraging followers to starve themselves to death for the glory of God.

GHOSTS BBC One, 8.30pm

Blue plaques, pineapples, murder and evicting a ghostly tenant from the nursery are among the challenges Alison (Charlotte Ritchie) and Mike (Kiell Smith-Bynoe) face this week, while grumpy neighbour Barclay (Geoffrey McGivern) seems determined to play hardball over the sale of his land.
