What to watch on TV tonight: Thursday
EVERY WEEKDAY lunchtime, DailyEdge.ie rounds up the TV shows that you’ll be tweeting about tonight and talking about tomorrow.
Oi Ginger! (RTÉ Two, 9.30pm)
What’s it like being a redhead? Is anti-ginger discrimination the last acceptable form of prejudice in Ireland? It’s certainly something faced by redheaded people every day… and here stylist (and carrot-top) Angela Scanlon sets out to investigate what life is like for them. It’s a repeat, but still a hot issue for many. #oiginger
From There To Here (BBC One, 9pm)
New drama based around the 1996 IRA bombing in Manchester that injured more than 200 people. This first of three parts follows one of the victims, who survives but finds that nothing is quite the same afterwards. Likely to stir up memories for many on both sides of the Irish Sea. #fromtheretohere
How The Wild West Was Won With Ray Mears (BBC4, 9pm)
The REAL survivalist (sure that Bear Grylls is just a show-off) returns with a new series set in the American West. He’ll be trekking through the wilderness and looking at how the 19th-century pioneers did the same on their way to California. It’s going to be great.
Everybody’s talking about: Modern Family
ABC ABC
The sitcom broadcast its season-five finale in the US last night, with the same-sex wedding of beloved characters Mitch and Cam. Like most successful comedies, Modern Family has become more about telling its characters’ stories than about telling jokes… and this was one that fans have been waiting for. Cheers!
