Suddenly Amish<\/p>\n
10pm, TLC
Tapping into the cultural obsession with tradwife life, this reality series sends a group of men and women to live in an Amish community. Unsurprisingly, they\u2019re met with scepticism. But the participants seem genuinely attuned to this new way of life: coffee barista Billie Jo has been dressing in Amish clothes at work for 10 years. But then Kendra is shamed for arriving in a low-cut dress, and Aaron\u2019s phone is confiscated \u2013 despite him needing it for his hearing aid. Hollie Richardson<\/p>\n

Big-city surgeon turned local doctor Martin Best (Josh Charles) is finally warming to the sleepy Maine town of Port Wenn. Or at least he is willing to tolerate its folksy traditions, such as the imminent annual pie-making competition, which is so competitive that one patient describes it as \u201clike The Purge, but with blueberries\u201d.

Wholesome, saucy and educational (how many shows can say that?!), the BBC\u2019s now cancelled gay dating show will be so missed. There are still four episodes to go, though \u2013 this double bill sees more emotional farewells and a chemistry test that leaves nowhere for shaky couples to hide. Hannah J Davies<\/p>\n
The American Revolution<\/p>\n
10pm, BBC Four
1780: the final phase. Cavalry commander Banastre Tarleton helps Gen Charles Cornwallis drive Britain\u2019s southern campaign. Meanwhile, in Ken Burns\u2019 epic history lesson, Benedict Arnold\u2019s defection rocks the patriot cause \u2013 before the French help deliver Washington\u2019s decisive victory at Yorktown, paving the way for American independence. And it\u2019s all been so peaceful ever since.
