Succession
9pm, Sky Atlantic
At home or abroad, a Roy family wedding is always a lavish and enjoyable occasion – except, of course, for the waiters. Now it’s the turn of Logan’s sidelined first son Connor (Alan Ruck) to tie the knot, but will anyone actually turn up to celebrate? Even bride Willa (Justine Lupe) looks like a possible no-show. It’s promising to be the episode of the season. Ellen E Jones

The Graduate (Mike Nichols, 1967), 10.35pm, BBC Two
“It’s a little secret, just the Robinsons’ affair.” The music of Simon & Garfunkel adds a flourish to Mike Nichols’s often downbeat 1967 comedy-drama. Dustin Hoffman’s Ben, disaffected and unfocused after college, begins an adulterous fling with Mrs Robinson (Anne Bancroft), the wife of his father’s colleague, but then falls for her daughter Elaine (Katharine Ross). Tapping into middle-class hypocrisy and the disaffections of 60s youth, it’s a time capsule – but a fun one. Simon Wardell
