Storyville: Citizen Ashe
10pm, BBC Four
Through vivid archive and retrospective accounts, this great documentary tracks the legacy of Arthur Ashe, the first black tennis player to be selected for the US Davis Cup team and make waves in “a game that white guys dominated” (and still do). As well as his phenomenal sports achievements – he also became the first black man to win Wimbledon in 1975 – the film celebrates his work as a social activist. Hollie Richardson
Hungry for It
8pm, BBC Three
Prepare for a coronary, as meat-free junk food climbs to the top of this week’s agenda. Admissions of “I did a Super Bowl party for Drake once” from Chef Kay Kay sit alongside a colossal cheesy-chip butty. However, Big Zuu “don’t wanna eat no dough”, as the Knives Out showdown sees the bottom two chefs strive for pizza perfection. Danielle De Wolfe
Live at the Apollo
10pm, Dave
Chris McCausland helms the first in a new series of London’s most famous standup comedy showcase. Sophie Duker (fresh from her popular stint on Taskmaster), and fast becoming one of the zingiest names in UK comedy, returns to the Apollo stage, along with fellow comedian Emmanuel Sonubi. HR
Ellie and Natasia
10pm, BBC Three
Tonight’s episode of the sketch show sees Ellie White and Natasia Demetriou transform into Lolita-esque popstars – cue calls of “I’ll Be Your Sexy Baby, Goo Goo Ga”. Nappies aside, returning special guest Jamie Demetriou visits the Ink Palace, and a pair of vaping dominatrixes lower the tone. DDW
We Own This City
10pm, Sky Atlantic
A thrilling and atypically realistic car chase results in the death of an innocent civilian, leading Wayne Jenkins (Jon Bernthal) down a path of cover-ups. Jenkins, a wonderfully horrible addition to the bent-cop canon, also spots an opportunity to win back respect following Freddie Gray’s death. Henry Wong
Everything I Know About Love
10.40pm, BBC One
Jill Halfpenny thrives as Roisin, the straight-talking, chain-smoking reality TV boss who introduces Maggie (Emma Appleton) to the new world of dating apps (“Wide-on! Wide-off!” she shouts while swiping left and right). Will this hinder Maggie’s vow of abstinence? HR
Film choice
Rebel Dykes (Harri Shanahan and Siân A Williams, 2021) 1.05am, Channel 4
This feature-length documentary manages to be many things at once. It is a postcard from a very specific era (the early 1980s, when Thatcherism collided with a post-punk S&M London lesbianism). It is a guidebook to splashy activism (we see the subjects abseil down the House of Lords and invade live news broadcasts). It is a still-angry reaction to Section 28. It is home to one of the best Ian McKellen interviews you will ever hear, complete with a startling anecdote about a dental dam. In short, it has it all. Stuart Heritage
