Better Off Dead?

9pm, BBC One
“Gosh, if I was like you, I couldn’t go on, I’d rather be dead.” It’s a comment that actor and disability rights activist Liz Carr, who was born with arthrogryposis, has heard from people – including strangers – all her life. In this powerful documentary, she makes a case for why we shouldn’t legalise assisted dying, speaking to people on all sides of the issue. She is very clear, though, that she won’t be changing her mind. Hollie Richardson
