Ludwig<\/p>\n
9pm, BBC One<\/p>\n
Is there a danger that, with John \u201cLudwig\u201d Taylor\u2019s true identity revealed, this cosy-crime drama will lose intrigue in its second series? Jeopardy is just about maintained: John is now a police employee but he\u2019s still investigating his brother\u2019s fate, while solving a case a week in his bumbling style. But chief constable Ziegler is on his case \u2013 he knows something\u2019s up, he\u2019s just not sure what. Undemanding fun, enlivened by Mitchell\u2019s lead and Anna Maxwell Martin\u2019s Lucy.

Dragons\u2019 Den<\/p>\n
8pm, BBC One<\/p>\n
A big first for the show in its 23rd season: with guest judges Susie Ma and Jenna Meek onboard, there are more female dragons than male. Pitches kick off with Kimberly and her eco-conscious haircare range Selkie, before mother and son Shashi and Sanjay fill the den with Spice Kitchen aromas. Hollie Richardson<\/p>\n
The Yorkshire Vet<\/p>\n
8pm, Channel 5<\/p>\n
Reality show featuring James Herriot\u2019s former trainee Peter, his vet pals and a god-like voiceover from All Creatures Great and Small\u2019s Christopher Timothy. Your enjoyment of the show depends on how much you like watching the surgical treatment of a recently pregnant cow with a prolapse. Priya Elan<\/p>\n

9pm, BBC Two<\/p>\n
Back to Edinburgh where David Olusoga is busy bringing more dusty census records to life. We\u2019ve reached the Victorian era in the house on Calton Hill and the residential turnover is brisk. There\u2019s Thomas Mains, a struggling shoe-maker; Thomas Glen, a renowned bagpiper; and, most intriguingly, Catherine Johnston, a brothel keeper. PH<\/p>\n
Better Date Than Never<\/p>\n
9pm, BBC Three<\/p>\n
\u201cBetter late than never! Who would have thought?\u201d This dating show is a cheerful treat, following daters who range in age, gender and identity but who have left it late to get into the dating game. This time it\u2019s the turn of Charles, who is trying speed-dating, and Kento, who is excited about a second meeting. PH<\/p>\n
Possession<\/p>\n
9pm, Sky Atlantic<\/p>\n
Karla Crome\u2019s rich, intelligent thriller about the echoing injustices of slavery comes to a mesmeric conclusion, which begins with British-Jamaican lawyer Claudia (Gugu Mbatha-Raw) trapped beneath the floorboards of a house that thrums with past pain. Violent confrontations, in the present day and the 18th century, resolve the narrative in stunning fashion. Jack Seale<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s soft and gentle \u2026 but he\u2019s also angry.\u201d Jelena Djokovic\u2019s assessment of her husband is the knotty thread that runs through Jason Hehir\u2019s documentary about a giant of tennis who has yet to be forgiven for surpassing the achievements of crowd favourites Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer. His intensity and stubbornness (a Serbian national trait, we\u2019re told) hasn\u2019t endeared him to the public but, as we go behind the scenes at the 2025 Australian Open and meet an honest, engaging family man with a long history of tough choices, this film could go some way to changing minds.
