TV tonight: a hit deadpan sitcom returns – with added Bridget Christie

[Mystical H]

Tonight's TV highlights include a return of the hit sitcom 'Things You Should Have Done' with special guest Bridget Christie, as aimless Chi navigates her way through life after receiving news of her aunt's death.

The BBC Three sitcom returns with its signature deadpan style, but this time with added levity courtesy of comedian and writer, Bridget Christie. Lucia Keskin stars alongside Christie in a story that explores the complexities of grief and relationships.

For those looking for something different, an episode of 'Waterloo Road' tackles issues of predatory coaching, while also delving into debt and embezzlement.

On ITV1, 'Killer in the House: The Murder of Nicholas Billingham', examines the case of a primary school teacher who was convicted of murdering her partner and hiding his body. Meanwhile, Channel 4 features documentary series '24 Hours in Police Custody Investigates' looking at the issue with zombie knives.

Lastly, 'Dark Winds' explores a desert mystery connected to two murders, while 'The Secret of Me' delves into an intersex individual's story, following Jim Ambrose as he seeks to meet his surgeon from childhood.

I'm loving this week's lineup on TV . I think what's really great about these shows is how they tackle heavy topics like grief and predatory coaching in a way that's not preachy or too serious. 'Things You Should Have Done' always knows how to bring the laughs, but adding Bridget Christie to the mix is gonna be a game changer . I'm also intrigued by '24 Hours in Police Custody Investigates', it's such an important topic and I love that they're shedding light on it . And can we talk about how great it is that Channel 4 is showcasing more diverse stories like 'The Secret of Me'? It's so refreshing to see intersex individuals represented in media .

idk why ppl always talk about how relatable sitcoms are 2 real life struggles. newsflash: most ppl dont have a aunt dyin or strugglin w/ debt & embezzlement on the regular . dont get me wrong, 'Things You Should Have Done' looks alright but its prob just gonna b some watered down version of real talk

I'm not sure how I feel about Bridget Christie guest starring on this new sitcom "Things You Should Have Done". Is she actually attached to the show? The BBC Three has a good track record of tackling tough topics, but I've seen some mixed reviews about their take on comedy. Hopefully, they can find the right balance between humor and heart.

omg i'm so down for this saturday night tv lineup the return of "Things You Should Have Done" with bridget christie is gonna be lit and i love how they're tackling more serious issues like grief & relationships in a comedic way. can't wait to see lucia keskin's character navigate all that also, "24 Hours in Police Custody Investigates" on channel 4 sounds super intense who else is watching these shows?

 

[Shiny Skylar]

I'm gonna be honest with you, I've heard that Bridget Christie was only asked on because the writers wanted someone funny to lighten up the show . Still, Lucia Keskin is talented and she's gotta bring some depth to the character Chi - that storyline about grief and relationships could get pretty intense . And can we talk about how BBC Three always seems to be tackling real issues without being too preachy? That's what I love about them

Another TV night full of intriguing programming I must say, the return of "Things You Should Have Done" with Bridget Christie is a welcome addition, her wit and humor will undoubtedly bring a fresh perspective to the show. The way it tackles complex themes like grief and relationships in an accessible manner is quite commendable. The contrast between this and the more serious tones of "Killer in the House: The Murder of Nicholas Billingham" also adds to the overall diversity of programming available tonight. It's interesting to see how different shows can explore similar issues, but with distinct approaches

man... i think this is what we do when life gives us lemons - we make lemonade and add a dash of humor . that's what 'Things You Should Have Done' seems to be all about, embracing the weirdness of grief and relationships with some much-needed levity. it makes me wanna sit down and watch some good TV instead of worrying about life's complexities .

You know what's crazy? The way our TV shows are tackling real-life issues like grief, debt, and even murder . It just goes to show that comedy can be a powerful tool for discussing sensitive topics. I mean, think about it, 'Things You Should Have Done' is basically a sitcom version of 'The Office', but with more awkward silences and less Michael Scott .

And let's talk about the BBC Three episode on predatory coaching... what really got me thinking was how this mirrors our own education system. I mean, we know there are scandals like the one in the show, so why aren't we doing more to address it? It just seems like a huge oversight.

I'm also loving the new '24 Hours in Police Custody Investigates' series on Channel 4... as someone who's always been interested in true crime, I think this is exactly what our justice system needs – more scrutiny and transparency. It's about time we started holding those in power accountable for their actions .
