Kate Garraway’s Life Stories

9pm, ITV

Taking over from Piers Morgan for the deep and meaningful chat series, the much more affable Kate Garraway is sure to inspire some watercooler moments with her 60-minute celebrity interviews. First up, Charlotte Church – the child prodigy singing sensation, who has lived under fame’s spotlight since she was just 11. Also in the hot seat this series: Bake Off winner Nadiya Hussain and former footballer John Barnes. Hollie Richardson

Go Veggie and Vegan with Matt Tebbutt

7pm, Channel 5

This admirably simple-to-follow series – recorded before Tebbutt’s recent brush with appendicitis – demonstrates that “living life on the veg” does not mean sacrificing flavour. Tonight, the likable host proselytises for the palate-enlivening effects of homemade chilli oil, before extolling the virtues of the humble butternut squash. Graeme Virtue

Dragons’ Den

8pm, BBC One

It’s game night for the nation’s favourite panel of entrepreneurs. The showcased businesses include a pirate-themed escape room, a bouncy ball that creates music as you play with it and, for no apparent reason, an oral cosmetics business. Has no one told the programme-makers that you shouldn’t play around with dental hygiene? Alexi Duggins

Mary Beard’s Forbidden Art

9pm, BBC Two

When a wealthy banker donated a generous donation of sculptures to the British Museum in 1865, it created an awkward moment – it was a collection of phallic votive statues, politely accepted, but never to go on public display. In her new two-parter, classicist Beard rediscovers such taboos in the art world, starting with the theme of “vile bodies” (watch out for the live vomit). HR

The Apprentice

9pm, BBC One

The increasingly tired but still guiltily amusing business schadenfreude-fest continues to make mugs of its participants. Tonight, a creative task of the sort that can be relied upon to elicit sniggers: the contenders have to develop, brand and market a video game. Cue pitch mishaps and scorn from Lord Sugar.

And Just Like That …

9pm, Sky Comedy

And just like that, it’s the end of a binge that made Sex and the City fans cringe. In fairness, most fans warmed to the series as it gradually bettered (two words: kitchen sex). Big’s shock death reset everything in the opening episode, and the series has seen Carrie navigate grief – is closure even possible for this finale? HR

Live sport

Premier League Darts 7pm, Sky Sports Main Event. First night of the 2022 tournament, won last year by Welsh player Jonny Clayton , from Motorpoint Arena Cardiff.
