The Other One
9.30pm, BBC One
“Have you tried cranberry juice?” GP receptionist Marilyn (Siobhán Finneran) asks a UTI patient. “I have to say it’s never worked for me, but it’s all right with vodka.” It’s the kind of line that makes the second season of Holly Walsh’s comedy about two formerly estranged sisters Cathy (Ellie White) and Cat (Lauren Socha) well worth catching up with. Tonight it’s Valentine’s Day. Hollie Richardson

The Predator, Friday, 9pm, Film4 After its instantly iconic first entry, the Predator series has been an exercise in diminishing returns. Predator 2 replaced tension with silliness, and you’d be forgiven for forgetting that 2010’s dismal Predators was ever made. With 2018’s The Predator, though, the balance began to reset. Co-written and directed by Shane Black (who had a small part in the first movie), this is the goriest and funniest of the sequels, which (almost) remembers that the key to a good Predator movie involves simply reacting to the mayhem caused by a merciless alien killer. Not perfect, but a step in the right direction. Stuart Heritage
Jackass 4.5, from Friday, Netflix The Jackass movies are produced in a manner that always creates a glut of unseen stunts, so a Jackass 4.5 – recut and filled with snippets previously left on the floor – was always inevitable. But this doesn’t necessarily mean it will be all scraps and offcuts. After all, Jackass 4 was by far the most enjoyable film of the series. With the cast now in middle age, their absurd nihilism came tinged with autumnal melancholy, as if they were finally accepting mortality. If the new clips are as weirdly touching as those in its parent film, this will be terrific. Jackass for ever! SH
