TV tonight: awkward confessions continue in Aisling Bea’s hilarious stealth hit

This Way Up

10pm, Channel 4

Aisling Bea’s charming, subtle comedy continues to offer a beautifully nuanced take on friendship, romance and mental health. Tonight Áine (Bea) and Tom (Ricky Grover) fumble through an awkward cafe confessional while Sharon Horgan’s Shona is left hanging by her future husband in New York. The scripts and performances are full of the warmth, awkwardness and occasional revelation that most of us would recognise as real life. Almost by stealth, This Way Up has become one of the more singular shows on TV. Phil Harrison
