Inside Our ADHD Minds
9pm, BBC Two
Autistic presenter Chris Packham returns with his Inside Our Minds series, this time meeting people with ADHD to make a film about what life is like for them. Tour guide Henry describes his struggle to regulate attention as being like the balls in a tombola. Jo, meanwhile, was diagnosed during the menopause; it’s another diagnosis missed more often in women. Touching and informative. Hollie Richardson
Malpractice
9pm, ITV1
Moody Dr James Ford (Tom Hughes) is even moodier, since he found suspended midwife Maria Carter dead in her flat. What does this mean for the MIU’s investigation? Even as more evidence points towards serious wrongdoing, getting anyone to go on record seems impossible. But maybe George (Jordan Kouamé) already has access to the information they need?

Virgin Island
9pm, Channel 4
Appearing on national television seems a drastic way of addressing very personal struggles with sex and intimacy. But that’s the scenario facing 12 adult virgins in this new series. They’ll be heading to a luxury resort in the Med to see if a course of therapy can help them overcome their issues. Phil Harrison
The Last of Us
9pm, Sky Atlantic
Anyone worried that the action would go downhill after that explosive second episode needn’t have worried: it was hard to breathe as Ellie (Bella Ramsey) and Dina (Isabela Merced) were chased through Seattle last week. They now know where to find Abby – but with Dina pregnant, will Ellie go it alone? HR
Elsbeth
9pm, Sky Witness
As another series of the campy Good Wife spin-off begins, a night at the opera ends in murder, with one audience member meeting his fate in a scene ripped straight from Tosca. As always, viewers see whodunnit first – a la Columbo – before Carrie Preston’s oh-so-quirky detective works out the how and why. Hannah J Davies
Assisted Dying: The Final Choice
11pm, BBC Two
A deeply emotional and sobering documentary sees Fergus Walsh visit California and Canada, where assisted dying is legal. The main case, an octogenarian in excruciating pain, is an unarguable mercy, but the arguments against the practice are also compelling. Jack Seale
Film choice
Gladiator II (Ridley Scott, 2024), Paramount+
Considering the success of the original, it’s a surprise it has taken 24 years for Ridley Scott to return to the Colosseum. But there’s still a lot of familiarity in his ancient Roman sequel – from returning characters to elaborate fight scenes and animal antics. Paul Mescal stars as Lucius, the son of Russell Crowe’s Maximus, who is living a quiet life in north Africa until an invading Roman army takes him into slavery. From there, it’s a short hop to becoming a gladiator and reviving his father’s rebel stance, while his owner, Macrinus (a lip-smacking Denzel Washington), plots to overthrow the unstable twin emperors. Mescal is more of a brooder than Crowe, which lends the film an elegaic, end-of-an-era feel. Simon Wardell
