Newswipe

Charlie Brooker returns tonight to wring more laughs from the news... if the show makes it to air that is. There's problems in the edit. Brooker has said on Twitter that this episode "has been cursed with every technical, legal and practical hitch you could imagine." BBC4, 10:30pm.

If you'd prefer something less intellectually challenging and worthwhile, there's knob gags courtesy of Coming Of Age over on BBC3. Elsewhere tonight: We Need Answers; Jimmy Carr and Sarah Millican on Argumental; Shameless and a new series of Radio 4 sitcom Fabulous. Schedule
