Pick of the day: My Super-Rich Holiday

10pm, Channel 4

Eddie Kadi has entered the nation’s living rooms via Strictly Come Dancing, and not the more usual route for Channel 4’s favoured comedians: by way of Taskmaster (the inconsistent Kadi scored a perfect 10 one week, and then faced a dance-off the next). He is now joined by fellow comedian and Man Like Mobeen star Guz Khan as they explore Ghana’s bustling capital, Accra, which also happens to be the exclusive millionaires’ playground for the likes of Idris Elba, Naomi Campbell, Ed Sheeran and Liam Payne. Kadi gets the kind of access to the country that no ordinary tour operator could offer as he shows Khan its culture.

He begins with a look at the British film-making partnership of Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger and the unique style they brought to the features in the 40s, including The Life And Death of Colonel Blimp, A Matter of Life and Death, Black Narcissus and The Red Shoes.
