Upright 2 (Foxtel)

It is four years on from the events of the first series, when musician Lucky transported a piano from Sydney to Perth, assisted and hampered in equal measure by teen runaway Meg. They haven’t kept in touch so it’s a shock when Meg turns up at Lucky’s door, insisting on his help in finding her errant mother. Their subsequent tropical Queensland odyssey is as ludicrously entertaining as the earlier desert adventure, with both Lucky and Meg as slappable as they are endearing. The coincidences of people and place are a stretch to swallow – North Queensland is not a small place! But Tim Minchin and Milly Alcock are a formidable screen partnership and the classy supporting cast, including Hayley McElhinney, features some joyously funny cameos. It’s not as good as the first, but that was a hard bar to beat.
