What It Feels Like for a Girl9pm, BBC Three Millennials, prepare for a nostalgia rush as this rollicking adaptation of Paris Lees’ memoir takes us back to the time of Nokias, Zombie Nation and total hedonism. Life is “one big fucking party” for everyone except Byron (a brilliant breakthrough for Ellis Howard), a working-class teenager desperate to escape constant homophobia and hopelessness. Sex work leads Byron to Nottingham’s underground scene and a fun-loving group called the Fallen Divas.

Pick of the week Sacrilege: Curse of the Mbirwi“Who really gives a shit about roots any more,” asks Dashon (Caleb McLaughlin), a Detroit teenager who, in this audio drama, is begrudgingly in Zimbabwe with his family. He is indifferent towards their African ancestry, leading to uncomfortable conversations about race, colonialism and privilege. That could be a provocative enough story, but the supernatural twists that follow really elevate this production.

Our Guy in Vietnam9pm, Channel 4“Xin chào! How we getting on boys? You all right?” Guy Martin has a great time bobbing around Hanoi – the starting point for his two-parter in Vietnam, to mark 50 years since the end of the war. He explores plenty of its communist history and explodes two leftover bombs, but there are also lighter times to be had at a pre-dawn public workout session for retirees and at a “train street” where cafe-goers can touch a train passing through on the narrow track.
