McMafia
9pm, BBC One
Last in the series based on the Misha Glenny book and with so many competing villains – or should that be “business interests”? – it’s hard, coming into it, to see how it will be resolved. Alex arrives in Moscow for an ultimate face-off with Vadim who, having lost the last human treasure of his life, his daughter Natasha, is in no mood for pragmatism. Will we finally see the true Alex emerge, burst out of his false carapace of Englishness? And will he at last show off his combat skills? David Stubbs
Call the Midwife

South Korea: Earth’s Hidden Wilderness
8pm, BBC Two
Never mind the tensions with their neighbour – observe their misty peaks! That in a nutshell is the tenor of this agreeable nature show, in which we hover over mountain ranges and plunge into the sea to meet the dolphins swimming off the volcanic island of Jeju. Staggering stuff inland, too. John Robinson
Endeavour

Hokum comes to Oxford’s dreaming spires in the form of a film crew working on a horror sequel. Soon, there’s death by poisoning and a movie star convinced that an Egyptian curse is to somehow blame. Elsewhere, as the well-crafted Morse prequel continues, Thursday’s estranged brother, Charlie (Phil Daniels), pays a visit. Jonathan Wright

Film choice
Mia Madre, 10.30pm, BBC Four
For driven film director Margherita (Margherita Buy) the show must go on – even when her mother lies dying in hospital. Which means juggling her time and emotions, and John Turturro’s high-maintenance American star in particular. A warm and wise comedy from Nanni “Dear Diary” Moretti. Paul Howlett
