Rishi Sunak Up Close – Tonight
8.30pm, ITV1
His role in British public life will probably end soon, so it is pointless getting to know Rishi Sunak any better than we already do. Still, as a companion piece to January’s documentary about Keir Starmer, this offers a rundown of the prime minister’s best bits to date (hedge fund millions, unsuccessful leadership campaigns … that sort of thing) and wonders if this most underwhelming of politicians might have it in him to mount the mother of all political comebacks. Phil Harrison
Dragons’ Den
8pm, BBC One
The Dragons are joined by guest Emma Grede, an east London entrepreneur who runs a series of businesses with the Kardashians. She leaps straight into investing in a business dedicated to afro-textured hair, while a company making funky asthma inhalers gets more mixed levels of enthusiasm. Alexi Duggins
The Miners’ Strike 1984: The Battle for Britain
9pm, Channel 4
The third and final part of this sombre series explores how the era-defining strike finally fell apart. It begins in the rich coalfields of Nottinghamshire, where many local miners opposed NUM leader Arthur Scargill’s unilateral call out and an oddball Tory-supporting millionaire saw a chance to ingratiate himself with the Thatcher regime. Graeme Virtue
Julia
9pm, Sky Atlantic
It is lucky that Julia (Sarah Lancashire) is perennially charming, as she needs to do everything she can to help the WGBH studio through its annual fundraising drive. That is, of course, unless she wants to jump ship to a network that promises it has the financial means to take The French Chef to dizzying new heights. Kayleigh Dray
Billy Connolly Does
9pm, Gold
A third series in which the Big Yin takes aim at any number of sacred cows including, in this opener, Scottish pride. What makes one proud to be a Scot? The terrible folk songs? (“Written in London.”) Or the freezing weather? (“Scottish people are conceived while their parents are fully clothed.”) Ali Catterall
Sort Of
10.15pm, Sky Comedy
The final series of Bilal Baig’s well-judged queer lives sitcom continues with gender-fluid Sabi (Baig) and their sister Aqsa (Supinder Wraich) working through long-simmering tensions. And will Aqsa and Izzy (Varun Saranga) commit? The answer, as usual in this subtle, sensitive show, is “sort of”. Ellen E Jones
