Is Uni Racist?
10.45pm, BBC One
Linda Adey presents this documentary, aiming to examine how safe Britain’s universities are for its students of colour. Beginning in Manchester, Adey meets a 19-year-old student who claims he was harassed by university staff who thought he was a drug dealer, while at Oxford’s Christ Church college she hears from students who have also alleged racist incidents from other alumni. Adey questions whether the systems put in place to deal with racism are adequate, as students keep quiet rather than face potentially dissatisfying consequences. Ammar Kalia

Bent Coppers: Crossing the Line of Duty
9pm, BBC Two
This rich documentary series delivers another irresistibly murky saga. It’s the late 1970s, and major armed robberies keep happening in London – without anyone going down for them, because a lot of cops are regularly accepting “drinks” from the gangsters responsible. Can the rot be stopped? Jack Seale
