Freddie Flintoff's Field of Dreams: Ultimate Test, BBC1, 8.10 pm
Previously on Field of Dreams, England cricket legend Andrew ‘Freddie’ Flintoff set out to prove the game wasn’t just for the elite by creating a youth team from his home town of Preston, then taking them to India. Now he’s setting up a Field of Dreams league in a bid to reach more kids across the UK. Tonight, we follow Freddie and his coaches as they start a boys’ team in Liverpool, and his first girls’ team in Blackpool. But while the girls get stuck in, the behaviour of the Liverpool lads puts the project on a decidedly sticky wicket. The result is another inspiring chapter in this BAFTA-nominated show. Also available as a box set on BBC iPlayer.
I Fought the Law, ITV1, 9 pm

As the health of Ann and husband Charlie (Daniel York Loh) starts to suffer as the battle for justice continues, Sheridan gives a masterclass in grit and grief in this astonishing story of a inspirational woman.
