Inside the Rage Machine
9pm, BBC Two
“My goal is to not get sued,” says Matt Motyl, a former senior staff researcher at Facebook and Meta. He is one of the ex-employees who give reporter Marianna Spring the inside story of how social media giants have profited from algorithms that perpetuate divisiveness and hate.

Handcuffed: Last Pair Standing

When the going gets tough, the cuffed get going … It’s the climactic week of the stressful reality show that shackles chalk-and-cheese contestants together to see who can hold out the longest.

Linda’s a “Go-Getter”. At least that’s the name of her preferred smoothie at Jamba Juice. But it also describes her energy with Clark, and their role-playing affair, in a suburban satire where everybody and everything’s off-kilter.
