Tonight on TV: Open the Bolly for a roaring ‘Absolutely Fabulous’ reunion | TV

Absolutely Fabulous: Inside Out

9 p.m., gold

Chill the Bolly for this Ab Fab treat, sweetie. Jennifer Saunders, Joanna Lumley, Jane Horrocks and Julia Sawalha dish all the fabulous dirt about the making of their hit sitcom, from its beginnings as a sketch to production of the pilot episode (“I’ve never found it particularly funny that women are drunk” , he told BBC comedy boss Robin Nash at the time) and turned it into classic television. Fans Emerald Fennell, Meera Syal and Ruby Wax are also taking part. Look out for a young Idris Elba and Whoopi Goldberg going completely off script. Holly Richardson

A house through the ages: two cities at war

9pm, BBC Two

David Olusoga is the history teacher we all deserve with the return of his fascinating series telling the stories of residential buildings and the people who lived in them. This time he is tracking down the tenants of the Montagu Mansions in London and Pfalzburger Straße 72 in Berlin. We begin in the 1920s, after the First World War. Human Resources

9pm, Channel 4

Andy Zaltzman looking for a pen, Jack Dee trying a New York accent and Emma Sidi drinking disgusting wine? It may only be an hour before Taskmaster Greg Davies and his assistant Little Alex Horne put this series’ celebrities to the ultimate (pointless) test. Human Resources

9 p.m., Sky Atlantic

Ella Purnell continues to excel in the second part of this story about an oppressed young woman who becomes a murderer. She has some color in her cheeks, her colleagues begin to respect her, and she smiles unexpectedly as she remembers the murder. One question remains: who was the victim? Alexi Duggins

Everyone else is burning

10pm, Channel 4

It is the second comeback of the sitcom, which, yes, puts the fun in religious fundamentalism. Rachel offers Jesus girls who have a better future than her. David is amazed by a woman who “knows how to make cheese from scratch.” And Fiona fears their relationship will fall apart “like a big sexless cardigan”. Ali Catterall

Brass

10 p.m., Sky Max

Two silly storylines try to outdo each other in this rollicking episode of the Joseph Gilgun-directed comedy. Lovable hunk Ash does his best to infiltrate a commune that practices non-sexual nudity, while Tommo plans to take down a rival nightclub with liquid fox feces. Graeme Virtue

Film selection

The Duke of Burgundy (Peter Strickland, 2014), Film4

With his seductive curiosity from 2014, Peter Strickland delves into the world of European arthouse eroticism of the 70s. The sadomasochistic relationship between Sidse Babett Knudsen’s lover Cynthia and Chiara D’Anna’s servant Evelyn (Sin and Evil?) seems mutually fulfilling, but the balance of power is delicate – just like the butterflies that she and her (all female) neighbors study and classify. It’s a sultry, hallucinatory film in which passions are controlled and nature is restricted. Simon Wardell
