International Football: Germany v Republic Of Ireland
7pm, Sky Sports 5
The expansion of the European Championships to 24 teams has given a boost to the home nations, with Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland and the Republic Of Ireland all hopeful of qualifying for Euro 2016. That’s not to say qualification has become a doddle; this fixture sees ROI face the World Cup holders. There are tough away encounters in store for Scotland and Northern Ireland, too, as they take on Poland and Greece respectively (Sky Sports 1, Sky Sports 2). Gwilym Mumford
Long Lost Family: What Happened Next
8pm, ITV
The last in the series looks at the families reunited by the show and how all their lives then took unexpected turns. Cherry, who discovered she had not one but two other sisters, is adjusting to finding her missing family while in her 70s.

Obsessive Compulsive Cleaners
8pm, Channel 4
Another week featuring two more chalk and (overripe) cheese combinations, as Gemma and Angie – both of whom have pristine homes – go to the aid of, respectively, car boot sale fan Jim and owl enthusiast Brian. This being television, difficulties soon occur. Jim has accumulated a hoard of possessions that weighs 10 tonnes, including piles of women’s clothes, due to his cross-dressing. Lonely widower Brian’s Kent home doubles as a sanctuary for 37 feathered and nocturnal predators; trouble for Angie, who has a phobia of birds. Jonathan Wright
The Dog Hotel
8pm, Watch
Dog-loving couple Matt and Leon have opened a hotel for Brighton’s canines. It’s not quite as frivolous a venture as it sounds, given that the pair are trained in therapies that allow them to combat health and behavioural issues, as well as providing a creche service where dogs can socialise freely. Seeing as it all seems to be going swimmingly for the business, to nail on some narrative this opening episode reveals how the pair are more interested in canines than cash and that such doggie doting might lead to financial woe.

The Apprentice
9pm, BBC1
He was plain Sir Alan, then Lord Sugar. Now, the bearded business baboon with the overdeveloped firing finger only answers to Darth Sugar. The finger itself has been modified to emit a murderous gas and both Nick and Karen will carry Tasers to up the jeopardy. Tonight, 20 ruthlessly groomed buffoons begin their journey equipped only with a backpack of bullshit, a rhino hide and that directionless enthusiasm we so love them for. Followed by The Apprentice: You’re Fired on BBC2. Julia Raeside
Human Universe
9pm, BBC2
Tonight’s programme ends with a quote from Carl Sagan: “For small creatures such as we, the vastness is bearable only through love.” It’s not so much a reply to this episode’s head-scratcher, “Why are we here?” (Brian Cox’s theory is simultaneously banal and completely dizzying), but a suggestion on how to deal with it without going nuts. En route, Cox uncovers scientific inquiry in ancient Vedic poetry and at one point comes unconsciously close to breaking out into a spoken recitation of Eric Idle’s Galaxy Song. Ali Catterall
Spandau Ballet: True Gold
9pm, ITV
The kings of aspirational 80s pop celebrate their 35th anniversary and perform some of their biggest hits. From the early 80s synth-pop craze to The Krays, the Kemp brothers and company have a long story to tell, as Christine Bleakley meets them for a chat. Following the highlights and lowlights of a career stemming from their 1970s schooldays, the band reveal the truth about their 20-year hiatus, their time at the top of the pop hierarchy, and the quarrels over royalties that eventually spilled into the high court. Mark Jones
Give Out Girls
9.30pm, Comedy Central
Comedian Hatty Ashdown plumbed her years as a promotions girl for the basis of this new sitcom. Him & Her’s Kerry Howard is the hapless Marilyn, perpetually in the bad books of ex-EastEnder Tracy-Ann Oberman, playing her mucky boss Debbie. In an identikit town centre, the team – comprising Cariad Lloyd (the odd one), Miranda Hennessy (bitchy) and The X Factor’s Diana Vickers (ditzy) – are sampling new booze Nectarino. Whoever does the best wins a job in Spain with Debbie’s tragic underling Steve. It’s not awful. BA
