All Together Now: The Great Orchestra Challenge
8pm, BBC2
Katie Derham presents the finale of the show in which amateur orchestras compete for a place to perform at the Proms in Hyde Park. As much as this is a celebration of music, under the gaze of judge Paul Daniel and the personable mentoring of Chi-chi Nwanoku the show does best with characters discovered within the ranks of musicians. How will they balance their commitments and their personal lives as the pressure mounts? John Robinson
The Severn Bridge At 50: A High Wire Act
7pm, BBC2
Straightforward but interesting doc contemplating the half-century of the Severn Bridge. Though there’s not much to say beyond “It’s been here 50 years”, there is a compelling story of engineering and logistics underpinning it. The film meets the people who keep traffic flowing – which, as is often the case with things we take for granted, is more difficult than it looks – and explores the unceasing task of maintenance. Andrew Mueller
The Last Leg: Live From Rio 8pm, Channel 4
8pm, Channel 4
On the penultimate day of this year’s Paralympic Games, Adam Hills, Josh Widdicombe and Alex Brooker bring their japes to an end with an unofficial closing ceremony. So far it’s been a warm and inclusive accompaniment to the competition, with the #isitok hashtag leading to some taboo-busting conversation. Tonight they’re joined by athletes including swimmer-turned-cyclist Sarah Storey and discus pro Dan Greaves. Hannah J Davies
Newzoids
9pm, ITV
The second series of the potshot puppet satire continues. It may be more interested in being mean about celebrities than angry at politicians, but at least Newzoids has a distinctive look: the primitive Action Man-style marionettes with weirdly slick CGI mouths are vividly grotesque. Tonight’s instalment also promises some blue-on-blue action by taking an axe to ITV2 totem Keith Lemon and Xtra Factor host Rylan Clark-Neal among others. Graeme Virtue
Beck: Steinar
9pm, BBC4
After recent traumatic events, Beck isn’t sleeping so well, and his boss is feigning concern while harbouring thoughts of getting rid of the old fella. Could the arrival of new team member Steinar Hovland – a Norwegian detective played by bear-like and charismatic Kristofer Hivju of Game Of Thrones fame – be the one to shunt Beck towards retirement? We find out in an episode that begins with the discovery of a charred body in a caravan park. Jonathan Wright
Blue Wild Angel: Jimi Hendrix At The Isle Of Wight
4.40pm, Sky Arts
It wasn’t the last gig he’d ever play (and it wasn’t his best), but it would turn out to be his final UK performance: on 30 August 1970, Hendrix wowed 600,000 people – nearly double the number at Woodstock – with the likes of Voodoo Chile and Machine Gun, amid revolting weather, technical glitches and smashed perimeter fences. Nineteen days later he was dead, aged 27. A muddy, messy farewell. Ali Catterall
Machine Impossible
6pm, National Geographic
In which “tech upcycler” Max McMurdo and engineer Mischa Pollack travel the world to seek out the latest in cutting-edge technology. This week it’s cars, from fully automated, driverless numbers in Seoul to the impressively dodgem-esque manoeuvrability of the EO2 electric “urban vehicle” from Germany. Then – for reasons that are slightly less clear – the pair embark on building their own “flying car” (it’s a glider). Ben Arnold
Film choice
Buffy The Vampire Slayer
(Fran Rubel Kuzui, 1992) 5.10pm, Syfy
It all started here… This is the movie that launched the cult TV series without, oddly, achieving that status itself. Kristy Swanson plays the nubile San Fernando Valley girl accosted by creepy Merrick (Donald Sutherland), who tells her she is the chosen one – ie, it is her life mission to slay vampires – and soon she’s into the stakes-and-kicks with a vengeance. Good, sharp-fanged fun, with Rutger Hauer as the master bloodsucker. Ben Affleck and Hilary Swank also appear. Paul Howlett
Toy Story 3
(Lee Unkrich, 2010) 5.30pm, BBC1
The trilogy (as it was then) winds up with this poignant outing, tugging harder on the heartstrings and confronting that bittersweet time when teenagers put away their toys. So, when young Andy heads for college, Woody (Tom Hanks), Buzz (Tim Allen), Jessie (Joan Cusack) and the other toys are accidentally dispatched to the daycare centre-cum-nightmare prison. A triumphant tale of love, loyalty and a megalomaniac teddy bear. PH
The Warriors
(Walter Hill, 1979), 11.10pm, Film4
Walter Hill’s cult 1970s action movie is the pared-down tale of New York gang the Warriors, summoned to a meeting of the clans in the Bronx, being framed for a killing and having to fight their way back to their Coney Island patch, pursued by every other gang on the streets. It features muscular performances from a cool young bunch including Michael Beck and James Remar. PH
