Dispatches: Britain’s Evicted Kids
7.30pm, Channel 4
Sheridan Smith narrates this infuriating but increasingly common story about three young sisters – Nylah, Macie and Bella – who are made homeless after their family are evicted from their Birmingham flat. The film follows them over six months as they move from place to place while looking for permanent accommodation at a time of record-high rents and a social housing crisis. As well as using exclusive research and insight, it shows the real human cost of policymaking. Hollie Richardson

Ghosts
8.30pm, BBC One
This disarmingly silly sitcom continues to delight, even in its slighter moments. Tonight, Alison and Mike see a chance for a break after a cancellation. But, guilt-ridden after upsetting their reluctant hosts, the ghosts are planning an elaborate and hilariously counterproductive musical apology. Phil Harrison
Munich Games
9pm, Sky Atlantic
This smart thriller sticks the landing with a finale that’s one long hostage situation. The bad guys don’t know two spies are loose in the hotel; what the spooks and the audience aren’t sure of is who the bad guys actually are. It’s tense and boldly ambiguous, right up to the last scene. Jack Seale

Catherine Called Birdy (Lena Dunham, 2022), Prime Video
Adapted from Karen Cushman’s children’s novel, this sprightly comedy by Lena Dunham focuses on Birdy (Bella Ramsey) as she narrates her life as a 14-year-old aristocrat in medieval England. She’s an independent spirit – or, if you’re her father, Lord Rollo (Andrew Scott), an insufferably mischievous child who keeps foiling your plans to marry her off. Bracingly open about menstruation and infant mortality, Dunham highlights restricted female lives in the 13th century (and, by extension, in our time) with a ready wit, helped by an on-point cast including Billie Piper as Birdy’s mother, Lesley Sharp as her sardonic servant and Sophie Okonedo as a marvellously eccentric widow. Simon Wardell
Waves (Trey Edward Shult, 2019), 9pm, BBC Three
Waves of hate and love, guilt and regret sweep over a family in Trey Edward Shults’s atmospheric drama. We follow 18-year-old favoured son Tyler (Kelvin Harrison Jr) – pushed by his aspirational father (Sterling K Brown) to academic and sporting success – and then Tyler’s ignored sister Emily (a superb Taylor Russell), who finds her own path after an incident that fractures the ostensibly perfect clan. It’s a hazy but captivating film, with brief, elliptical scenes bound together by intense performances and arresting imagery. SW
