Derry Girls
9pm, Channel 4
Lisa McGee’s acutely observed yet rip-roaringly funny sitcom set against the backdrop of the Troubles wraps up what has been a terrific second season. It is November 1995 and the entire community is anticipating a visit from Potus-with-the-most Bill Clinton. For the girls, it’s an excuse to try to become BFFs with Chelsea. For shady shopkeep Dennis, it’s a pretext to flog off-colour Yank tat. And for Granda Joe, it’s a chance to settle an old score with Uncle Colm dating back more than 30 years. Graeme Virtue
Hard to Please OAPs
8.30pm, ITV
It would be easy for a show that challenges pensioners to get their heads around gadgets to be patronising, but the names taking part are too savvy to be the butt of the joke. Harry Redknapp, the great Lionel Blair and June “Dot Cotton” Brown are among those battling technology with wit and common sense. Hannah Verdier
Surgeons: At the Edge of Life
9pm, BBC Two
Every day, about 130 operations take place at Birmingham’s Queen Elizabeth hospital, but only a small percentage are truly cutting edge. Such as replacing Maggie’s ticking timebomb of an aorta (one in 10 die; paralysis is also a risk) or performing brain surgery on a conscious patient. Gory, yes, but also profound. Ellen E Jones
Looking for Rembrandt
9pm, BBC Four
This handsome three-part series concerns the life and work of Rembrandt, featuring the voice of Toby Jones as the artist himself. This Rembrandt is cynical and on the make in Amsterdam, yet deeply spiritual and wholly committed to his art. Other experts chime in, explaining his significance and his downfall. David Stubbs

9.30pm, Channel 4
Sami pays a visit to “Stone’enge” on the eve of his interview and Peter makes a big decision in the final episode of Rufus Jones’s lovely sitcom. Beautifully written, wonderfully cast and incredibly timely, it manages to say more about the current state of the UK than any number of documentaries. Ali Catterall
Don’t Forget the Driver
10pm, BBC Two
Toby Jones co-writes and stars in a state-of-the-nation comedy with a very broad brief: everything from Brexit to the migration crisis and the elderly care timebomb is covered in a tale of a coach driver who finds a refugee stowed in his wheel arch. The melancholic tone is offset by a curiously gaudy colour palette. Gwilym Mumford

Beasts of the Southern Wild (Benh Zeitlin, 2012) 2.10am, Film4
A masterful piece of magical realism inspired by Hurricane Katrina. It is set deep in the bayou, where a community live in houses on poles, among them the ailing Wink (Dwight Henry) and his daughter Hushpuppy (Quvenzhané Wallis), through whose eyes this extraordinary tale of dreams and reality unfolds. Paul Howlett
