Everyone Else Burns
10pm, Channel 4
Simon Bird fans will want to give his latest sitcom a go, in which he plays the bowl-haired patriarch of a puritanical Christian family who are preparing for Armageddon. Kate O’Flynn is his devoted wife, while Amy James-Kelly is their bright-spark daughter who questions her outlook on the future after meeting a boy. Look out, too, for the always brilliant Lolly Adefope, who shines as a teacher who has just been dumped and likes to tell people about it. Hollie Richardson
Silent Witness
9pm, BBC One
Does Emilia Fox’s crime drama hate HS2? The first in this double bill is based round a “high-speed rail link” that politicians are opening as part of a “levelling up” agenda – only for its maiden trip to end in multiple deaths. Hopefully, when the forensics team get to the bottom of the incident, they’ll also explain why a supposedly new train’s carriages look as if they’re from the 70s. Alexi Duggins
How the Holocaust Began
9pm, BBC Two

Maternal
9pm, ITV1
The NHS crisis is just the beginning in this delightfully cast, gently political drama.

Ellen E Jones

Film choice
Wings of Desire (Wim Wenders, 1987), 1.15am, Film4
Wim Wenders’ tender 1987 romantic fantasy is filtered through the lens of a then divided Berlin, resulting in a film that balances wonder with sadness. Bruno Ganz plays Damiel, one of a population of angels who watch over the German city’s inhabitants but are unable to intervene in their lives. Then he sees Solveig Dommartin’s trapeze artist Marion and feels the tug of human emotion – particularly love – and the desire for physical connection. It’s a freewheeling, poetic tale, shifting between black-and-white and colour as it dwells on the experiences of both the aerial and the earthbound. Simon Wardell
