Road to Brexit, BBC2, 10pm
MATT Berry offers his unique take on Brexit in this one-off comedy. Reuniting with collaborator Arthur Mathews for the first time since Toast of London, Berry plays rogue historian Michael Squeamish, who’s on a mission to discover the origins of Brexit. Through creative use of archive footage and filmed interviews, the programme unashamedly plays fast and loose with the facts for a surreal whistlestop tour of Britain’s relationship with Europe.
Inside the Factory, BBC2, 8pm
GREGG Wallace visits a cheese factory in Gateshead, where 3000 tonnes of spreadable cheese are produced every year.

The Yorkshire Ripper Files: A Very British Crime Story, BBC4, 9pm
IT would become the UK’s biggest ever criminal manhunt: one man murdered 13 women and attacked at least eight others before he was finally arrested, initially for driving with false number plates, in 1981. This three-part documentary, shown over consecutive nights, poses the question: did 1970s attitudes to women influence the police investigation and leave Peter Sutcliffe free to kill again and again?
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
