George Michael at the BBC
8.25pm, BBC Two
It has been 40 years since Wham! released their debut album, Fantastic, so here’s a night of George Michael to celebrate. As well as recorded performances of solo and band hits, including Club Tropicana and Freedom, the BBC digs deep into the archives for typically charismatic interviews he did with the likes of Kirsty Young and Michael Parkinson. Fans should stick around for his 2008 Earls Court show at 10.40pm. Hollie Richardson
Capital’s Summertime Ball 2023
7pm, ITV1
Glastonbury it is not. Still, pop fans will enjoy this recording of the Wembley Stadium gig from last week – where Kylie Minogue made a surprise appearance to perform this year’s summer anthem Padam Padam. Jonas Brothers, Calvin Harris, Niall Horan and Anne-Marie also take to the stage. HR
Pointless Celebrities
7.35pm, BBC One
Pointless continues its admirable effort to showcase comedians who are on the up, despite not offering many chances to be funny. Stephen Bailey, Janine Harouni, Felicity Ward and Nabil Abdulrashid are here, with After Life stars Tony Way and Ethan Lawrence, and soap actors Kimberly Hart-Simpson and Priya Davdra. Jack Seale
Birds of a Feather: 30 Years of Laughs
8.25pm, Channel 5
The hit sitcom first aired in 1989, more than three decades ago, which seems as good a reason as any to celebrate it this weekend. It features Lesley Joseph and Linda Robson (who says she vomited with nerves before each recording) taking a trip down memory lane, rare behind-the-scenes footage and show writers revealing what “groundbreaking, gritty” scenes nearly got cut.

Annika
9.10pm, BBC One
Annika (Nicola Walker) opens her next murder case by telling the tenuous tale of the Dionysia festival – one of booze, sacrifices and orgies. The case in question is a man thrown into the Clyde from a party boat full of his friends and family. The series concludes in another episode at 10.20pm. HR
Later … With Jools Holland
9.55pm, BBC Two
Texas frontwoman Sharleen Spiteri joins Mr Boogie Woogie to talk about her band’s greatest hits, while excellent gospel-soul trio Gabriels perform tracks from their second album. Malian musician Fatoumata Diawara, Fontaines DC frontman Grian Chatten and Oxford soulster Elmiene also play. Alexi Duggins

If you can believe the doyenne of French cinema, Juliette Binoche, as a rough’n’ready Canadian trucker, then Anna Gutto’s dark road movie has much to recommend it. Sally (Binoche) reluctantly carries out illegal courier jobs for her convict brother Dennis (Frank Grillo), who is being threatened in jail. That is until the latest package turns out to be Leila (Hala Finley), a victim of child sex trafficking. Going on the run with the girl, Sally has to choose between loyalty and morality, while Morgan Freeman’s FBI veteran gets ever closer. Simon Wardell
