Good Grief With Reverend Richard Coles

10pm, Channel 4

After the death of his partner in 2019, the Rev Richard Coles found himself in a rage with a lorry driver outside a McDonald’s at the A43 services. It’s one relatable part of life after bereavement, which he recalls during this touching but uplifting “grief adventure”. From laughter yoga to surfing (“surf’s up, so is the vicar!”), songwriting to boarding a “grief cruise”, he speaks with people on similar shaky paths, all in search of a good life after death.
