Euphoria
10pm, Sky Atlantic
With its male nudity and an (animated) sex scene between two members of One Direction, Euphoria has provoked more than a bit of controversy in the US. But look beyond the outraged headlines and it’s the nearest thing that US TV has had to a Skins moment: a raw, true-to-life teen show that tackles topics such as drug addiction and sex work without an air of judgment. In this first episode, Rue (mononymous rising star Zendaya) returns from rehab to find a kindred spirit in her new classmate Jules. Hannah J Davies
World War Weird
8pm, Yesterday
This new series examines quirky and often chilling tales from the second world war. Unsolved mysteries are broken down by experts, from the curse of Stalin’s tomb to cold war chickens “of mass destruction”. Plus: how could a bell kill plants, animals and eventually humans? The stories are usually engaging and well told. Hannah Verdier
Keeping Faith
9pm, BBC One
Carmarthen lawyer Faith (Eve Myles) can put up with a lot – series one offered ample proof of that – but the events of this episode push her beyond her limits. A family emergency coincides with the climax of Madlen’s murder trial, and a hungover Cerys might be either a hindrance or a help. Ellen E Jones
The Chefs’ Brigade
9pm, BBC Two
Those miffed at not meeting the full cast in last week’s opener can enjoy an episode in which the likes of Jenny and Jay get the chance to shine. The chefs are on a trip to Norway, where Jason Atherton’s brigade go skillet-to-skillet with Lysverket, a Bergen restaurant run by a rising star of Nordic cuisine, Christopher Haatuft. Mike Bradley
Revolutions: The Ideas That Changed the World
9pm, BBC Four

I Am Hannah
10pm, Channel 4

Film choice
Alone in Berlin (Vincent Perez, 2016) 9pm, Film4
Hans Fallada’s 1947 fact-based novel about a Berlin couple who undertake quiet resistance to the Nazis gets a conventional but affecting screening from Vincent Pérez. Brendan Gleeson and Emma Thompson are dependably effective as the Quangels, driven by the grief of a dead son to circulate illegal anti-war postcards. Paul Howlett
