Man Like Mobeen

9.20pm, BBC Three
Guz Khan returns for a fifth and final series of his hit comedy about a working-class Muslim former drug dealer trying to do good in Birmingham. Mobeen (Khan) is desperate to save his sister Aqsa (Dúaa Karim) in the UAE but there’s one problem: he isn’t allowed to leave the country. He’s offered a few dodgy solutions, and will have to take one of them if he wants to secure a future for him and her. Hollie Richardson

Signora Volpe

8pm, U&Drama
A second season for this borderline ludicrous but happily escapist drama, with Emilia Fox playing British spy turned detective Sylvia Fox, who is trying to start a new life in Italy – where trouble has followed her and she has fallen for a dishy local. The three-parter kicks off with Sylvia getting involved with the alleged murder of a pillar of the community. HR

VE Day 80: We Were There

9pm, BBC Two
As their numbers shrink every year, the chance to receive first-hand testimony from those who witnessed the second world war grows more precious.

The Plot to Kill Holly Willoughby

9pm, Channel 5

Trust Channel 5 to get straight to the first documentary about Holly Willoughby’s stalker, Gavin Plumb, who last year was convicted of soliciting the kidnap, rape and murder of the former This Morning host and given a life sentence. The details of his plan are set out, with experts in criminal psychology and stalking behaviour giving insight. HR

Taskmaster

9pm, Channel 4

As ever, it’s great to have Taskmaster back with another cohort of comics ready to be humiliated and weirdly glorified by the experience. Fatiha El-Ghorri, Mathew Baynton, Rosie Ramsey, Stevie Martin and, perhaps most excitingly, Jason Mantzoukas are the latest volunteers. In the opener, expect fun with vinegar, raisins and peas. Phil Harrison

Gangs of London

9pm, Sky Atlantic
Bish bash bosh, with the emphasis on bash: season three of the propulsive, bone-snapping crime saga reaches its penultimate episode. Dapper racketeer Ed Dumani (Conclave’s Lucian Msamati) is doubling down on his ambitious power play, but can he convince the rest of the shifty stakeholders that Elliot (Ṣọpẹ́ Dìrísù) is their enemy?

Film choice

Another Simple Favor (Paul Feig, 2025), Prime Video
Seven years after A Simple Favor, Paul Feig has resurrected its two antagonistic moms for another zippy, quippy comic mystery. Anna Kendrick is back as amateur sleuth turned true-crime writer Stephanie, while Blake Lively’s murderous Emily – inexplicably released from jail – is about to get married to an Italian mobster on the sunny island of Capri. Seemingly taking its cues from Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery, the film is a smorgasbord of twists and turns in pretty settings, with Lively’s amoral schemer in designer threads again getting the best lines.
