Surgeons: At the Edge of Life
9pm, BBC Two
Not one for the faint-hearted: it’s the return of the fly-on-the-wall hospital series that doesn’t flinch from showing every detail of the remarkable work carried out during high-risk surgeries. We’re in Edinburgh this time, where 21-year-old law student Sania has an inflamed pancreas and needs an auto-transplant – which involves removing it and reconstructing her digestive tract. It’s a complex procedure that has only been conducted in Scotland three times. Edge-of-your-seat stuff, if you can stomach it. Hollie Richardson
