The Paper<\/p>\n
9pm, Sky One
The mockumentary about a local newspaper from the writers of The Office US is back \u2013 which, crucially, means the return of show-stealing Sabrina Impacciatore as clueless managing editor Esmeralda. New editor Ned (Domhnall Gleeson) may now have an award-winning team, but it has only made them hungry for more wild stories. Then there\u2019s the added HR drama of a workplace romance \u2026 Hollie Richardson<\/p>\n
Renovation Rescue<\/p>\n
8pm, Channel 4
In between co-hosting this show, ex-Love Islander\/DIY enthusiast Luke Mabbott has been doing up a 19th-century chapel in Cornwall. This episode follows his ambitious journey, involving a vaulted ceiling and bespoke gothic window \u2013 and he\u2019s doing all this while also planning his lavish wedding. HR<\/p>\n

Famed for playing awkward eccentrics, Stephen Merchant is the perfect guest star for series two of the quirky crime drama, as a haughty snooker player accused of bumping off his rival. Meanwhile, Lucy (Anna Maxwell Martin) confronts shady MP Joanne (Sian Clifford), and unlikely hero John (David Mitchell) receives a warning. Hannah J Davies<\/p>\n
Long Lost Family<\/p>\n
9pm, ITV1
One of this week\u2019s two subjects is Melissa, whose mother told her about another daughter she had to put up for adoption as a baby. What makes Melissa\u2019s search for her older sister even more heartbreaking \u2013 and a race against time \u2013 is that their mum has been diagnosed with early onset dementia. HR<\/p>\n
Taskmaster<\/p>\n
9pm, Channel 4
The comedians travel to a strange water feature to undertake tasks. But have Chloe Petts and Matt Lucas unintentionally missed a key part of the exercise (the camera operator certainly thinks so)? And what will impress Greg Davies less: Chloe\u2019s one-eyed doll or a pair of moth-eaten pants procured by Isy Suttie? Priya Elan<\/p>\n
The Great Plague: The Village That Saved Britain<\/p>\n
9pm, Channel 5
This exploration of heroism in the 17th century has modern resonance given the events of 2020-21. In 1665, the Peak District village of Eyam quarantined itself after an outbreak of bubonic plague and, in doing so, prevented a wider spread. Ruth Goodman tells the story via individual tales of courage. Phil Harrison<\/p>\n

Call My Agent! The Movie (Emilie Noblet, 2026), Netflix<\/p>\n

It is five years since French talent agency ASK closed and the staff have scattered. Andr\u00e9a (Camille Cottin) is about to direct her first film but is in need of a malleable producer, so she calls on No\u00e9mie (Laure Calamy), who now works on reality TV shows. From there, it\u2019s a short step to getting the band back together \u2013 though everything that can go wrong does go wrong. With its starry cameos (Eva Longoria, George Clooney) and industry in-jokes, this spin-off from the TV show is a familiar pleasure. Simon Wardell<\/p>\n
Dune: Part Two (Denis Villeneuve, 2024), Netflix
Part Three won\u2019t land in cinemas until December, but such is the complexity of Frank Herbert\u2019s fantasy saga that it\u2019s best to get up to speed with the first two in the trilogy now. In this spectacular instalment, director Denis Villeneuve concentrates on the changing nature of Timoth\u00e9e Chalamet\u2019s desert-planet messiahPaul Atreides and his relationship with Zendaya\u2019s native warrior Chani. Prophecies and politics clash as an air of foreboding infiltrates events, while Austin Butler makes a memorable first impression as the smirking heir to Stellan Skarsg\u00e5rd\u2019s evil Baron Harkonnen.

Supergirl (Craig Gillespie, 2026), 8.10am, 8pm, Sky Cinema Premiere
Following her riotous introduction as Clark Kent\u2019s cousin in last year\u2019s Superman, Milly Alcock\u2019s Kara Zor-El gets her own world(s) to play in. Director Craig Gillespie leans heavily into the scuzzy, Guardians of the Galaxy end of the comic-book spectrum, as the hard-partying Kara has to sober up after galactic pirates poison her dog, Krypto, and she has three days to find them and the antidote. Chuck in a plucky orphan girl (Eve Ridley) who is bent on killing the lead criminal and you\u2019ve got yourself a 12A John Wick in space.
