Louis Theroux’s Forbidden America
Sunday, 9pm, BBC Two
“I actually enjoy racist humour and misogyny … I think it’s awesome.” This is the sort of rhetoric Louis Theroux faces in a new series about the internet’s effect on controversial subcultures, starting with the far right. Attempting to maintain his composure (but often failing to do so) he spends time with self-proclaimed “internet troll” Anthime Gionet, who says “antisemitic is a made-up term”, as well as “political commentator” Nicholas Fuentes, who earns thousands of dollars in donations from fans of his disturbing online rants. Things turn meta, and more uncomfortable, when they both rip Theroux apart for being a “pretentious liberal journalist” on their own live streams. Hollie Richardson
Chloe
9pm, BBC One
“I’ve dug myself into a bit of a hole … but it just feels good.” Anyone else bracing themselves for the moment when the jig is up for Becky (a brilliantly complex Erin Doherty)? Tonight, she works out who Chloe was having an affair with before her death – it’s fairly obvious who, but still highly enjoyable to watch unfold. Meanwhile, her new relationship with Elliot gets more complicated (he is the widower of the woman she had an Instagram obsession with, after all). Episode four of the addictive thriller airs Monday.

Sister Frances takes charge of a young teenage mum from foster care; Timothy returns from university feeling poorly, before clashing with Dr Turner; Sister Hilda looks after a heavily pregnant woman suffering from a painful condition; and Nonnatus House faces its biggest threat yet. Ali Catterall
Trigger Point

The Curse
10pm, Channel 4
Now their opportunistic blag has turned into a record-breaking bullion heist, doofus crooks Albert (Allan Mustafa), Phil (Hugo Chegwin) and big Mick (Tom Davis) just have to lie low and avoid the fuzz. If only it were that simple. Episode two of the farcical 80s London-set crime yarn rattles along with energy and madcap charm. Graeme Virtue

The Most Beautiful Boy in the World
9pm, BBC Four
He may be familiar currently as the white-haired, bearded old man who had a fall in Midsommar, but Björn Andrésen was once idolised around the world after playing the young Tadzio in Luchino Visconti’s 1971 film Death in Venice. The 15-year-old Swede, as Kristina Lindström and Kristian Petri’s intimate documentary reveals, was pitched into a “living nightmare” of celebrity and dubious male attention due to the role – and it’s a period with which he still seems to be coming to terms. He has a heart-breaking story to tell, which he does with almost painful diffidence. Simon Wardell

The Innocents
11.50pm, Talking Pictures TV
Among the many adaptations of Henry James’s horror novella The Turn of the Screw, Jack Clayton’s crisply shot 1961 film deserves its reputation as one of the best. It’s all in the ambiguity, with Deborah Kerr bringing her febrile upper-class energy to the role of governess Miss Giddens. Hired to look after an orphaned boy and girl in a country house, she suspects ghostly forces – the spirits of two dead servants – are at work on the young children, manipulating and corrupting them. Or is the unworldly vicar’s daughter just imagining it? SW
