Sex: A Bonkers History
9pm, Sky History
Is this bonkathon history series just an excuse for Amanda Holden to do some naughty cosplay? Probably – she slips into a Spartan mini-toga within five minutes of the first episode, which explores the “sex-mad” ancient eras. But her game approach, along with historian Dan Jones’s more educational bits (such as the ancient Egyptians’ natural remedy for erectile dysfunction), is marvellously entertaining. Hollie Richardson
