It’s over to the Faroe Islands for the latest six-part Scandi-noir to get stuck into. All the trusty ingredients are there within the first few minutes: moody coastal shots, cryptic phone calls and a suspicious car crash. We quickly learn that animal rights activist Sonja fears for her and her young daughter’s life – so she sends her estranged investigative journalist father Hannis an out-of-the-blue video asking for help. Pacy and enjoyable, albeit formulaic. Hollie Richardson
Alan Carr’s Epic Gameshow
7pm, ITV
The show that revives TV quizzes of the past tonight reincarnates Child’s Play: the 80s series where contestants guess answers based on kids’ descriptions of them. It’s not all “kids, eh?” chuckling, though. Some of the pint-sized participants are more astute than you’d think. After all, the clue for Boris Johnson? “I don’t like him, my family don’t like him.” Alexi Duggins
Lost Treasures of Rome
7pm, Channel 4
Midway through this excavation of the Roman empire, we arrive at the Colosseum, where gladiators throw their nets, wield their tridents and await a thumbs up – or down, depending on the caprice of the crowd. Our archaeologists dig deep to unearth answers about this enduring symbol of Rome. Are you not entertained? Ali Catterall
A Royal Guide to: Celebrations
8pm, Channel 4
Factual telly’s most oversubscribed genre – archive footage and insider interviews to paint a picture of the Windsors’ private life – makes room for one more show on the royals. The opener chooses the topical theme of celebrations: how jubilees, as well as coronations, christenings and Trooping the Colour, look from inside the palace. Jack Seale
Keith Richards: My Life as a Rolling Stone

Tom Waits and Slash also lend their praises. Ronnie Wood’s episode follows at 10pm. HR
Download Festival 2022
9pm, Sky Arts

Film choice
Nashville, 5.20pm, Sky Cinema Greats
The confluence of music and politics makes for wry satirical drama in Robert Altman’s 1975 movie, as a host of vivid characters – all looking out for their own interests – converge on the home of country music. An independent presidential candidate’s rally draws in the likes of Ronee Blakley’s mentally fragile country star, obsessed fan Scott Glenn, scatty British journalist Geraldine Chaplin and womanising musician Keith Carradine in a film that isn’t exactly a state-of-the-nation metaphor, but gives a flavour of the zeitgeist.
