Buried With Michael Sheen
9pm, BBC Two
Increasingly as much an activist as he is an actor, Michael Sheen draws attention to a grim pollution scandal several decades in the making in this enraging two-part TV take on the award-winning podcast he co-hosted.

As Sheen speaks to reporters, visits the towns and villages affected and journeys to Anniston, Alabama, in the US to hear of a connected outrage, his anger grows. Phil Harrison

The Wedding Singer (Frank Coraci, 1998), 6.20pm, Sky Cinema Greats
The first inkling that there was more to Adam Sandler than puerile physical comedy came with this 1998 romantic comedy set in 1985. A streak of melancholic sweetness runs through his portrayal of the titular musician, Robbie, who loses his way after being dumped at the altar. Will helping the ineffably lovely Julia (Drew Barrymore) plan her own nuptials cure him of his gloom? As weird as it may seem to make a film nostalgic for the previous decade, the wall-to-wall 80s bangers make it a pretty joyful experience. Simon Wardell
