I Am Andrew Tate
Sunday, 9pm, Channel 4
There is an argument that Andrew Tate – the toxic “king of masculinity” who has become one of the most Googled people in the world – shouldn’t be given a second more airtime. Misogynistic narcissists lap up any such attention as ammunition. So what makes this documentary different? Well, it is directed by Marguerite Gaudin and executive produced by Dan Reed who both worked on Leaving Neverland. It has also been in production since Tate was arrested in Romania on charges of rape, human trafficking and forming a criminal gang, which he denies. It aims to find out how Tate rose to prominence, using never-before-broadcast footage, as well as interviews with fans, alleged victims and Tate himself. Hollie Richardson

![Riz Ahmed in Sound of Metal on BBC Two.](https://media.guim.co.uk/7943a9f734c9eb3d62591c414c00c72e0b97a1fb/112_0_3375_2025/1000.jpg)
Is deafness a disability? That’s the question facing rock drummer and recovering addict Ruben (the rightly Oscar-nominated Riz Ahmed) in Darius Marder’s thought-provoking drama. When he suddenly loses his hearing mid-tour, an angry, scared Ruben is persuaded by his bandmate and partner Lou (Olivia Cooke) to stay at a rural deaf community to try to find answers. There, under the wing of the group’s patient leader Joe (Paul Raci), he sees a possible future – but with cochlear implant surgery offering the return of some sound, he struggles with his life-changing diagnosis. Ahmed draws you in to his character’s painful progress in a story that revolves round sound – and its absence. Simon Wardell
While We Watched, 12.30am, Channel 4
In the year of an Indian election, this exemplary documentary from Vinay Shukla is a sobering reminder of how Narendra Modi’s time as prime minister has seen a reduction in democratic freedoms. Shukla’s focus is on Ravish Kumar, a veteran campaigning journalist on the independent news channel NDTV. His attempts to counteract a rise in nationalist propaganda in the media lead him to be branded a “traitor”, and death threats and the owners’ financial straits hamper his ability to do his job. Chilling and enraging, with plenty to ponder in relation to the UK’s own political discourse. SW
