Netflix: Ricky Gervais: Humanity:

His first solo stand-up show for seven years, which barrels at speed through the minefields of transgender politics, global terrorism and social media etiquette.

Sky Cinema: Transformers: The Last Knight (2017, Sky 12)

Michael Bay is back in the director’s chair for the fifth instalment in the blockbuster robot smash-’em up series. This time we’re treated to a centuries-spanning backstory that features pit stops in both King Arthur’s Camelot and Nazi Germany. An early scene presents Merlin as a permanently sozzled charlatan gifted his powers by an ancient and rather charitable Transformer. Cut to the present day and the race is on to get hold of Merlin’s staff/ lien super-weapon, with the quite gloriously named Cade Yeager (a returning Mark Wahlberg) joined by a polo-playing Oxford historian (Laura Haddock) and eccentric aristocrat Anthony Hopkins. Sky Cinema on demand and Sky Cinema Premiere from Friday.
