BalletBoyz: Young Men
8.30pm, BBC2
This is most probably unlike anything you’ve ever seen on Saturday night TV before: a striking, feature-length representation of the rigours of war, performed by renowned male dance company BalletBoyz. To coincide with Remembrance Day, this wordless adaptation of their 2015 stage production subverts typical war narratives, transporting both dancers and audience back some 100 years. Phenomenal. Hannah J Davies
Strictly Come Dancing
6.55pm, BBC1
Balls to Blackpool! The former shadow chancellor is now just one stiff-kneed salsa away from the Tower Ballroom, with his performance tonight to Gangnam Style – the same song he was seen dancing to way back at the 2014 Labour conference – set to further swell his cult status. Other plucky underdogs including Judge Rinder are at risk, especially if Ore Oduba’s fans rally round after his shock bottom-two finish last week. Jack Seale
China: Between Clouds And Dreams
7pm, Channel 4
With a vast geographical canvas to work with, industrial development continues to bleed through many of the Chinese provinces. This second of five films on the effects of climate change on the nation considers steps taken by townsfolk to tackle issues: when mysterious illnesses in a small town coincide with the presence of new factories, a young mother and local schoolchildren bravely begin their own investigations. Mark Gibbings-Jones
The X Factor
8pm, ITV
As the most ridiculous series of The X Factor so far spangles on in schamazing style with Disco Week, expect the memory of Studio 54 to be trampled all the way across that stage. Of course, it’s all about supposed Biggie and Tupac fan Honey G, whom the judges seem determined to keep in the competition. Who can blame them, eh? Altogether now: “I say Honey, you say G.” New heights are reached when Olly Murs and Nathan Sykes grace Sunday night’s results show. Hannah Verdier
The Royal British Legion Festival Of Remembrance
9pm, BBC1
Following this year’s iteration of the annual poppy “debate”, a reminder of what it’s actually all about. Huw Edwards presents coverage of proceedings from the Royal Albert Hall, where the entertainment includes – along with the RAF Squadronaires and the Band of the Royal Marines – Laura Mvula, Michael Ball and Alfie Boe. Coverage of the Remembrance Sunday ceremonies at the Cenotaph follows tomorrow morning on BBC1. Andrew Mueller
50th Annual CMA Awards
9pm, Sky Arts
Last week’s big anniversary brought out stars from every entertainment sector … Matthew McConaughey was there, as was country’s newest star, Beyoncé. Her performance with the Dixie Chicks aside, the belle of the ball was Dolly Parton, who won a lifetime achievement award. Still not enough top-quality country songwriters for one night? Well relax: after all that, Sky Arts are showing a 2010 concert by Willie Nelson to round off the night. John Robinson
Atlanta
10pm, Fox
Another double bill of musical polymath Donald Glover’s stoner-friendly sitcom, set amid Atlanta’s street-level hip-hop scene. Put-upon talent manager Earn (Glover) finds himself way too broke for date night, while his rapping cousin Alfred – AKA the ascendant Paper Boi – has to close a dodgy deal to maintain his profitable drug-dealing sideline. If that all sounds a little heavy, hold out for Zan – boisterous hashtag-slinger and self-made social-media superstar. Graeme Virtue
Film choice
Suspicion (Alfred Hitchcock, 1941) 8.10am, BBC2
Cary Grant a murderer? Surely not. But Hitchcock is a great one for surprises, and here’s Oscar-winning Joan Fontaine newly wed to the devious charmer and suspecting he’s done away with business partner Nigel Bruce, with her next on the hitlist. Cary seems to be a perfect beast in one of Hitch’s lesser, but deadly clever, dramas. Paul Howlett
The Bourne Ultimatum (Paul Greengrass, 2007) 10.45pm, ITV
This final part of the original Bourne trilogy opens at a furious clip – with Matt Damon’s anguished, amnesiac ex-CIA assassin pursued by Moscow cops – and it never lets up. It’s two hours of brutally paced, bone-crunching action, flitting from the Guardian offices in London (ahem) to Madrid, Tangier and a denouement in New York. A consummate spy thriller. PH
48 Hrs (Walter Hill, 1982) 12midnight, Film4
A typically violent tale of a mismatched duo: bad-tempered, gravel-throated cop Nick Nolte and, in an inspired debut, Eddie Murphy as a gobby con on 48 hours’ leave from the slammer. They’re hunting a nasty pair of villains (James Remar, Sonny Landham) through the deadly streets of San Francisco, but spend as much time cursing and thumping each other as the bad guys. PH
