Brendan O’Carroll on Who Do You Think You Are? (BBC1, 9pm)
O’Carroll’s episode of the hit BBC series takes a very specific direction – he sets out to find the men who murdered his grandfather Peter O’Carroll in 1920, during the War of Independence. He even discovers the weapon that was used in the killing. #whodoyouthinkyouare
Prom Crazy: Frocks and Ferraris (UTV, 9pm)
As Debs season REALLY gets going, this British documentary arrives at an opportune moments. It’s kind of like My Super Sweet Sixteen, but for a school prom: big cars, big dresses, big hair. Mild shock factor ahoy. #promcrazy

Musharaf Asghar is the stammering teenager who won the heart of pretty much everyone watching last year’s breakout hit Educating Yorkshire. Now, he’s on a four-day course to try and beat his speech impediment. Basically it’s the King’s Speech, but way better.
Everybody’s talking about: Better Call Saul
The second official teaser trailer for the Breaking Bad spin-off was released this week, and features a little nod to Walter White and Jesse Pinkman. Set before the events of Breaking Bad begin, the brief snippet shows Saul telling two clients:
I don’t go looking for guilty people to represent. Who needs that aggravation, right?
Oh, Saul. How young you once were.
