TonightS TV Highlights: Paramedic Realities, Rock ‘n’ roll Quizzes, and Artistic Insight
viewers tonight can choose from a range of compelling television, from the emotionally raw realities faced by paramedics to the irreverent humor of a revived quiz show and a revealing portrait of a celebrated artist. The evening’s offerings include a new episode of the acclaimed documentary series Ambulance, the final installment of the current run of Never Mind the Buzzcocks, a biographical program featuring artist Yinka Shonibare, and the continuing drama of Tell Me Lies.
Ambulance (9pm, BBC One) delivers its signature fly-on-the-wall perspective, beginning with a especially poignant case involving a 78-year-old man who has stopped breathing and the tough moments shared with his wife. Never Mind the Buzzcocks (9pm, Sky Max) concludes its current series with Greg Davies presiding over a typically boisterous episode featuring Nadine Coyle, Tom Grennan, and Chris McCausland. Later, In My Own Words: Yinka Shonibare (10.40pm, BBC One) offers an intimate look at the life and creative process of the British-Nigerian visual artist, exploring the impact of a spinal virus contracted during his student years. Tell Me Lies (11.20pm, BBC one) continues its suspenseful narrative as secrets and tensions escalate at Baird college during Halloween season.
