Adam Hills: Take His Legs
11.30pm, Channel 4
Known for his on-screen presence as presenter of the topical comedy show The Last Leg (showing at 10pm), Adam Hills now finds himself on the pitch, living out his childhood dreams as a rugby league fanatic by travelling to Australia to play against the Russell Crowe-owned South Sydney Rabbitohs. Hills creates the UK’s first physical disability rugby league team in the process: an inspirational feat, celebrating physical ability rather than disability. Ammar Kalia
Inside the World’s Most Amazing Hotels
8pm, Channel 5
We get a glimpse inside Las Vegas’s Caesars Palace in this new series on the globe’s most luxurious places to stay. This was the first themed hotel in the pleasure-centric city, and 4,000 staff now keep the institution running. It’s enough to make you want to hop straight on a plane. AK
The Name of the Rose
9pm, BBC Two
This dramatisation of Umberto Eco’s novel has been too stately overall, but it delivers a cracking finale. William (John Turturro) solves the case while Bernardo (Rupert Everett) insists on burning a witch before being fully rumbled. Amid the big speeches and set pieces are plenty of juicy deaths. Jack Seale
I Am Johnny Cash
9pm, Sky Arts
The Man in Black’s life is told through his songs here, from early country stardom to fame-fuelled hedonism and nihilistic old age. Featuring archive of Cash during intense performances, as well as interviews with his family, it is a refreshing look at the US from one of its greatest songwriters. AK
Country Music By Ken Burns
9.30pm, BBC Four
The 70s have arrived, an era of country music that Dolly Parton bestrode like a platinum-haired colossus. Elsewhere in Ken Burns’s definitive documentary, bluegrass has survived and Willie Nelson has discovered the weirdness of Austin, Texas. Ellen E Jones
The Graham Norton Show
10.40pm, BBC One
Even by the host’s frisky standards it looks like a lively couch this week. Alongside Hugh Grant and Matthew McConaughey, Cats co-stars Dame Judi Dench and Jennifer Hudson will share their memories from the set of the CGI-assisted feline phantasmagoria. Coldplay provide the music. Graeme Virtue

Marguerite, 11.15pm, BBC Two
Meryl Streep starred in the more celebrated biopic of the off-key opera singer Florence Foster Jenkins, but Catherine Frot is a force to be reckoned with in this vibrant, compassionate French account. The voice of Marguerite is truly awful, but there is something magnificent in the way she follows her star. Paul Howlett
