| Inbetweeners, C4, 10.50pm | During a recent night out, tvBite was reduced to hysterics by a member of the office making friends with a former monk. It's testament to Inbetweeners that we poked fun using their "Friend. Football friend" nonsense. Monk Friend, if you're reading: sorry. Anyway, it's been a great series and somehow, the writing seems to have become even closer to the sixth form we remember, even as the stars start to look more and more Fonzie. We hope they'll do a new series, even if they are 40. The final episode sees Will on the verge of an absolute disaster and Jay having a real, not made-up, girlfriend.
| | Michael Palin's East European Jaunt, Watch, 10pm | Palo's last true travelogue (if you don't count the 80 days revisited, which we don't) was less well received by us than most of the others when it was on Big Telly. Perhaps because of over-exposure to Justin Lee Collins et al, we were bemused by the lack of a spurious challenge or race ("I've got three days to try and re-unite the Politburo from 1986!"). Perhaps we were just annoyed because we'd had a rubbish holiday. Whatever the reason, tvBite has to admit that this is much better than we remembered. It begins in the Julian Alps and has lots of facts that we'd totally forgotten and interesting anecdotes about Josep Broz Tito, our favourite post-war Communist.

| | Sixteen: Too Young To Vote, BBC3, 9pm | British youth, eh? What do they know? Nothing. Except for: a whole different language, advanced stabbing, console games, why it's good to listen to music played out of a mobile phone speaker, sexting, Tinchy Stryder and hoodie wearing. But should this knowledge be enough to allow them to vote? Clearly not. Mind you, what do British adults know? They're all bloody infants anyhow. Their favourite book is Harry Potter, for God's sake. So why don't we let the U16s vote? That's the question asked in this ADDocumentary, presented by Lucy off of 'Enders. Same old story, mind you. Apathy rules.
