Catch-22
9pm, Channel 4
The comedy in Luke Davies and David Michôd’s fine adaptation of Joseph Heller’s 1961 American novel does a good job of leavening the existential crisis faced by US Air Force bombardier John Yossarian (Christopher Abbott). He is a man desperate to get out of combat duty, who finds himself trapped in a bureaucratic nightmare. Disappointingly, director and producer George Clooney seems miscast in the role of Lieutenant Scheisskopf. Mike Bradley
Philip Green & the Trouble With Topshop
10pm, Channel 5
Having sold a crumbling BHS to a former bankrupt, which led to the loss of 11,000 jobs and left a pension deficit assessed at £571m (a situation later rectified after intervention from the Pensions Regulator), Philip Green had already lost his crown as king of the UK high street. Then came the allegations of abuse against his staff, and financial woes for the remaining stores in his Arcadia empire. Fiona Phillips reports. Hannah J Davies
George Clarke’s Old House, New Home
8pm, Channel 4

Who Should Get to Stay in the UK?
9pm, BBC Two
Three more cases for lawyers fighting to help people to stay in the UK, in a series that underlines what a tragic waste of energy the “hostile environment” is. Even this week’s big victory, given the obstacles overcome to achieve it, only emphasises the wider injustice. Jack Seale
Sewermen
9pm, 5Spike
The first in a grim but insightful series about the challenges faced by staff at United Utilities, one of the UK’s biggest water companies, who battle “unflushables”, bursts and 100-tonne fatbergs, at the same time as constructing one of Britain’s biggest new fresh water pipelines. Who knew dealing with “a tankful of turds” could be so fascinating? MB
The Other Two
10pm, E4
It really is a family affair this week in this wry comedy as “Care Bear” Cary feebly pumps iron in preparation for a dire TV chatshow also scheduled to feature mum Pat. Chase is exercising, too, for a new music video, while Brooke confronts her past as a professional dancer. MB
