Prodigal Son
9pm, Sky One
Like father, unlike son: in this thriller, Malcolm Bright (Tom Payne) plays the son of the Surgeon, a famed serial killer (Michael Sheen), who uses his father’s criminal skills and advice to help the NYPD solve crimes. In this opening episode, Bright comes across a killer who seems to be copying his imprisoned father’s methods, forcing Bright to begin to repair their relationship. It is a predictable premise for an enjoyable drama and features a convincing performance from Sheen. Ammar Kalia

Joanna Lumley’s Unseen Adventures

Inside Llewyn Davis (Ethan and Joel Coen, 2013), 2.40am, Channel 4
Pre-Dylan, early-60s Greenwich Village is recreated in all its tatty glory in the Coen brothers’ bittersweet drama. Oscar Isaac is the downbeat folk singer Llewyn Davis, once half of a well-regarded duo, but now on the slide. The Coens ease from funny to melancholy in a pitch-perfect study of hope and failure.
