Mortimer & Whitehouse:
Gone Fishing

9pm, BBC Two
“I had a dream about you,” Paul Whitehouse tells Bob Mortimer. “We were getting married and you had a really thick head of hair – which of those is more likely?” This friends-gone-fishing series never fails to raise smiles. But as well as joking around while trying to catch Bob’s first salmon on a fly in the Scottish Highlands this week, the pair have a more serious moment as they talk about health and Paul’s recent skin biopsy.

Antiques Roadshow: Unseen Treasures

8pm, BBC One
A telegram from Ringo Starr? Queen Victoria’s parasol? A Phantom of the Opera mask? These items all sound interesting enough to have made it into regular episodes, but instead, they’ve been saved for this round-up in which presenter Fiona Bruce presents various unseen heirlooms from the recent series.

Game of Wool: Britain’s Best Knitter

8pm, Channel 4
A roast dinner, seafood ramen, crispy bacon … As the gentle knitting contest reaches week five, it seems to have morphed into MasterChef. Don’t adjust your set: the food is made of yarn, with host Tom Daley and judges Di Gilpin and Sheila Greenwell looking for textured perfection. Hannah J Davies

Prisoner 951

9pm, BBC One
This fine, moving drama about the internment of Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe continues. And initially, there’s relief, as Nazanin’s solitary confinement ends and she is moved to a more comfortable prison. Is her ordeal nearing its end? Sadly not, as careless remarks by Britain’s foreign secretary Boris Johnson weaken her position. PH

Daisy May and Charlie Cooper’s NightWatch

9.30pm, BBC Two

A ghoulish face at the window during a storm. An old man in a rocking chair. Footsteps in empty rooms. These are the things the siblings are warned about ahead of their final sleepover, in a remote bothy in the Scottish Highlands. It brings the two even closer together – and it is a joy to watch. HR

Revival

10pm, Sky Max
So far, more questions than answers in the offbeat horror drama about the dead coming back to life in rural Wisconsin. This flashback episode helpfully rewinds to two years before “Revival Day” to fill in some context about deputy Dana (Melanie Scrofano) and the case that tarnished her local rep. Graeme Virtue

Film choice

Ruby Gillman, Teenage Kraken (Kirk DeMicco, 2023), 2.05pm, BBC One

Ruby and Connor in Ruby Gillman Teenage Kraken.

An animated family film that didn’t make the splash it deserved to upon release in 2023, Ruby Gillman, Teenage Kraken is a fun riff on every coming-of-age trope. Ruby is a teenage girl whose family bans her from going near the ocean. One day she rebels and immediately discovers why: she is secretly a giant kraken, as is her entire family. Eventually the film lapses into slightly generic action, but if you have kids who like The Little Mermaid (or even Teen Wolf) they’ll have a lot of fun watching all their expectations be subverted.
