TV Tonight: Bill Bailey is an amazing tour guide in Vietnam | TV and radio

Vietnam Bill Billy

7.15pm, Channel 4

Amid a deluge of celebrity travel stories, Bill Bailey is actually an entertaining guide as he explores Vietnam (“I think of a sandwich I had in 1982,” he admits during one meditation session). Billy begins in Hoi An, an old international trading port, where he meets Chef Duc – an asylum seeker during the war who is now famous for his food. Next, it’s time to get a jazzy suit made by the tailor in time for the Lantern Festival. Holly Richardson

The Roman Empire by Train with Alice Roberts

8.15pm, Channel 4

Professor Alice continues her epic Roman journey by exploring an underground hotel in Parma. Then we move to Turin, where Italy’s ancient love story with bread began. Carbohydrate loading should fuel the final leg of the loop: a dramatic train ride through the Alps. Is this the route that Hannibal once took on the back of an elephant? Ellen E. Jones

Classical hits in the piano room

At 8.30pm on BBC Two

The latest TV gimmick designed to tempt artists into doing a different live version of their biggest hits, Radio 2’s Piano Room has remained in operation long enough to have a significant back catalog of its own. This collection of performances includes Coldplay do Paradise, Macy Gray’s reinterpretation of I Try, and 10cc’s I’m Not in Love which survives the transition from lush pop to orchestral sweep.

Bring It Back, 10.20pm, premiere on Sky Cinema

The harrowing follow-up to Danny and Michael Filippo’s horror debut Talk to Me features a performance of sly, nervous energy from Sally Hawkins that will leave you in awe. Not to mention a scene involving teeth might have you hiding behind your hands. Hawkins plays Laura, a foster parent — and grieving mother — who takes in 17-year-old Andy from Billy Barrett and his visually impaired younger half-sister Piper (Sora Wong). She does take care of Oliver (a bizarre Jonah Wren Phillips), who is speechless and clearly upset. What is Laura up to beyond parenthood (there’s a clue in the title) and why is she particularly interested in Piper? Simon Wardle

A Clockwork Orange, 12.10am, Sky Cinema Greats

From Anthony Burgess’s sharp, dystopian novel, Stanley Kubrick has created a bleak comedy that is both insightful and historical. The film centers around Alex (a career-defining role for Malcolm McDowell), a young gang leader who loves “ultra-violence” and Beethoven. The state tries to rehabilitate him through experimental psychological conditioning – but you can’t keep well… The film’s sexual politics leave a lot to be desired, but its 1960s stab at futuristic design still has its charm. Fidi is fine! Southwest
