Ripper Street
9pm, BBC2
With Reid, Jackson and Long Susan still evading capture in the London underground’s tunnels, the grave and bearded Inspector Jedediah Shine is under pressure to apprehend them from his boss Augustus Dove. But Shine thinks he’s made a connection between Reid’s recent activity on the dog-fighting circuit, and one dog – and its owner – in particular. Meanwhile, Reid and Jackson have a rather gruesome plan to put Dove and Shine on the back foot, involving a stiffened cadaver and a set of false teeth. Ben Arnold
Growing Up with Cancer
7.30pm, BBC1
A moving documentary that follows three courageous young cancer patients being treated at the Teenage Cancer Trust Unit in Glasgow. Described as “more like a youth club” than a ward, it’s here that Natasha, Nairn and Declan are able to relate to other teenage cancer patients – and just be themselves. As 15-year-old Natasha says, while picking out a wig: “My name isn’t cancer – why should my whole life revolve around it?” Ali Catterall
Fearless
9pm, ITV
High-flying human rights lawyer Emma Banville smokes rollups, drives an old Volvo and thumbs her nose at the British establishment. It’s a great role for Helen McCrory, in other words, and admiring her regal bearing is one way to stay focused when the convoluted plot and handheld camerawork gets confusing. In this episode, we find out more about Tony Pullings’s relationship with the murdered schoolgirl Linda Sims, whose family attempts to block the exhumation. Ellen E Jones
Murdered By My Daughter
9pm, Channel 5
Sweethearts Lucas Markham and Kim Edwards were both just 14 years old when they killed Kim’s mother and her younger sister, Katie. Why? Seemingly, they carried out the murders because Kim saw Katie as “Mum’s favourite”. This harrowing tale is explored in a documentary that features recordings of the killers, including previously unreleased police interviews, detailing what they did and interviews with some of those who knew them. Jonathan Wright
The Art of Japanese Life
9pm, BBC4
James Fox concludes his series on Japan by taking his black suit into the Japanese home. The country’s speed of change in the past 60 years means its population is now packed into small urban flats, not peaceful rural settlements. Fox is good on how people have maintained their refinement, but most breathtaking is the work of master carpenters – whose philosophy and craftsmanship were key to the way homes were initially built. John Robinson
Frontier Borneo
8pm, Eden
It is difficult to point a camera at the extraordinary wilderness of Borneo without coming away with something worth seeing. So this new series has its inevitable moments, especially in its chronicling of the working life of the rangers who try to keep the local human and crocodile populations separate, thwarting the scourge of blast-fishing. Unfortunately, the temptation to oversell matters is not resisted, with a portentous narration and intrusive soundtrack. Andrew Mueller
Vlogglebox
9pm, E4
With Gogglebox proving an enduring hit for Channel 4, it was only a matter of time before the watching-people-watching-TV format was extended. First came junior offshoot Gogglesprogs, and now there’s this, a “fast-turnaround series that reveals what 16- to 24-year-olds are really watching”. In short, that means a lot of videos and memes, but also some political news for its likable bunch of reviewers – mostly plucked from YouTube – to get their teeth into. Hannah J Davies
TV films
Mission: Impossible 2 (John Woo, 2000) 10pm, E4
Renegade spy Dougray Scott steals a deadly virus and holds the world to ransom; just another mission for Tom Cruise’s Ethan Hunt to handle. To ring the changes, Hunt teams up with cat burglar Thandie Newton (who also happens to be Scott’s ex), but Woo soon drops the finer feelings for his traditional slow-mo feast of motorbike and martial arts mayhem.
