The meticulous high-risk work carried out by hospital surgeons is shown in unflinching detail. Plus: is love hiding close to home in Amandaland? Here’s what to watch this evening. 9pm, BBC Two. Not one for the faint-hearted: it’s the return of the fly-on-the-wall hospital series that doesn’t flinch from showing every detail of the remarkable work carried out during high-risk surgeries. We’re in Edinburgh this time, where 21-year-old law student Sania has an inflamed pancreas and needs an auto-transplant – which involves removing it and reconstructing her digestive tract. It’s a complex procedure that has only been conducted in Scotland three times. Edge-of-your-seat stuff, if you can stomach it. Hollie Richardson.

9pm, ITV1. Series nine concludes in style.

9.30pm, BBC One. There’s a folk-horror thread running through the most unreasonably entertaining show on British TV.

Ellen E Jones.
10pm, BBC Two. An Isle of Wight holiday to see your future in-laws: how bad could it be? Poor Esther (Susannah Fielding) is finding out, as the eccentric family sitcom continues.

Graeme Virtue.
10pm, BBC Four. The actor reflects on the making of the 1983 adaptation of novelist Lewis Grassic Gibbon’s classic, shortly before it’s shown over the following three hours. Hopefully, by the end of that time, you’ll remember it, too. Alexi Duggins.
