Hang Ups
10pm, Channel 4
Stephen Mangan stars in and co-scripts this fast-paced and funny new series about Richard, a put-upon therapist trying to make a new career by carrying out sessions online. Among his clients are a woman whose life and aspirations are defined by Instagram and an aggressive creditor who agrees to take sessions to offset some of Richard’s debts. Charles Dance and Richard E Grant co-star, as does The IT Crowd’s Katherine Parkinson, as Richard’s partner, who is constantly accompanied by a male friend. David Stubbs

Paul O’Grady’s Little Heroes
8pm, ITV
O’Grady returns with an alternately heartwarming and affecting new six-parter, as he meets children undergoing treatment at Great Ormond Street. In the first episode, O’Grady follows siblings Emily and Luke, who are trying to keep their cystic fibrosis symptoms at bay via an exercise regime. Hannah J Davies
M1: The Motorway That Made Britain
9pm, Channel 5
The M1 is 60 next year. This documentary details its construction (led by the Wembley stadium architect Sir Owen Williams), evoking an era when service stations were deemed glam destinations. As well as vintage footage, there are pithy opinions from modern drivers, captured Car-Share-style. Graeme Virtue
Mechanical Monsters
9pm, BBC Four
Happily, not a show about people hooning about in pimped-up pickup trucks. Instead, this is an illuminating account of how the new technology of the 19th century gave rise to machines – such as Charles Babbage’s giant calculating machine and the Leviathan telescope – that were intended to help drive the empire forward.

Judge Romesh
10pm, Dave
Romesh Ranganathan’s strong year continues with this spoof of courtroom shows in the style of Judge Judy. It sees Judge Romesh deliver verdicts on claimants’ disputes and pass fittingly bizarre sentences. Tom Davis lends support to a comic unafraid to massage his own nipples on national TV. Double bill.
