Follow the Money

9pm, BBC Four

If this gritty but often swaggering Danish thriller has taught us anything, it’s that those who launder money rarely get away clean. The climactic double bill of season three sees goth hash dealer Nicky looking even paler than usual after barely surviving a stab-happy social call. As Alf’s strike force race to apprehend him, will he ever see his son Milas again? Meanwhile Nicky’s white-collar accomplice Anna belatedly realises how much danger she has put her family in by getting cosy with impatient criminals. Graeme Virtue

Britain’s Got Talent

Week five, with Amanda Holden the only judge left who hasn’t been overcome with emotion enough to press her golden buzzer. Will any of tonight’s hopefuls spark a glistering shower of ticker tape? The acts have been so-so, so far: have the producers kept a humdinger in reserve? Jack Seale

Who Dares Wins

8.30pm, BBC One

Burly DIY boffin Nick Knowles abandons his spirit level to present the first in a new (12th!) series of the oddly intriguing gameshow, which sees two pairs of strangers battle to outdo each other on a given topic. The first to win two rounds gets to play for £50,000, with a chance to increase their winnings with each successive victory. Mike Bradley

Secret of the Severed Heads: Viking Apocalypse

9pm, Channel 5

A tangled mess of headless skeletons and a neighbouring pile of skulls uncovered during excavations in Dorset form the basis of a puzzling ancient murder mystery. Ultimately, it takes a canny descendant of the Norsemen to unravel the true history of the macabre find. MB

The Jonathan Ross Show

9.15pm, ITV

The host welcomes comedian Romesh Ranganathan and Line of Duty’s Stephen Graham, who is sure to remain contractually tight-lipped as the nation awaits tomorrow night’s finale of Jed Mercurio’s nailbiting BBC One police procedural. Music comes from Ellie Goulding, who will chat and perform. MB
