Matlock

9pm, Sky Witness
A sparky new legal comedy drama starring Oscar-winner Kathy Bates, who is great as whip-smart, empathetic lawyer Madeline “Matty” Matlock in this spin-off from the 80s classic. Matty left law 30 years ago, but now in her 70s, wants to practise again. When she believes she is passed over for a role because of her age, Matty uses her wits to sneak into the firm, telling the hirers why being an older woman is useful: “Nobody sees us coming.” But can she convince junior partner Olympia (Skye P Marshall)?

Between the Covers

The Great British Bake Off

8pm, Channel 4
It started with 12 but there can be only one. In the grand final, the three challengers – Georgie, Christiaan and Dylan the 20-year-old “flavour king” – must make two-dozen scones, a classic afternoon tea display, and for the showstopper, a hanging tiered celebration cake fit for a summer garden party.

The Listeners

9pm, BBC One

Things become even more peculiar as Claire (Rebecca Hall) finds comfort in those in the support group who can also hear “the hum”. But who are they? And – as she grows closer to student and fellow “listener” Kyle (Ollie West) – how far will she compromise the security of her family and career to get to the bottom of this noise? HR

Cheaters

9.45pm, BBC One
Just one zippy episode of this cracking comedy about an affair is never enough (binge it on iPlayer now). Josh (Joshua McGuire) tries to slow things down and play it cool with Fola (Susan Wokoma) – but when he goes on a casual date, it’s Fola who turns up for dinner. HR

Storyville: Until I Fly

10pm, BBC Four
In a remote village in the Indian Himalayan region, a livewire five-year-old has energy and curiosity to burn. This intimate, life-affirming film shadows cheeky Veeru as he grapples with the strictures of school, scraps with bullies taunting him for his Indian/Nepalese heritage and dives into the nimble team sport of kabaddi.

Widow Clicquot (Thomas Napper, 2024), 12.45pm, Sky Cinema Premiere
This biopic of champagne pioneer Barbe-Nicole Ponsardin Clicquot owes a debt to Shekhar Kapur’s 1998 historical drama Elizabeth. After her husband dies, the beleaguered vigneron (Haley Bennett) must defend her kingdom from her father-in-law, the Moët family next door, and general forces of the patriarchy. Set against the backdrop of the Napoleonic wars, its ravishing sweep is spurred along by Sam Riley as the devil-may-care vintner who becomes her new beau. There aren’t many wine-making biopics, let alone feminist ones, so this is a welcome addition. Phil Hoad
