Sandi’s Great British Woodland Restoration

8pm, Channel 4

Sandi Toksvig and her wife Debbie get into the swing of their project to restore a patch of woodland in southern England for this charming series. It has been a long, cold winter and now they’re focusing on aiding wildlife habitats: building a wildlife pond, ensuring a 200-year-old beech tree is safe, forking out thousands on fencing. The main issue, though, is the number of deer in the area, which could jeopardise the chance of the wood’s regeneration, forcing them to make a big decision. Hollie Richardson

The gripping, if gloomy, drama about Jim Swire’s (Colin Firth) campaign for justice over the Lockerbie bombing reaches the trial, more than 11 years later, and interspersed real-news footage recalls the global media frenzy. As witnesses talk about the horrors, Swire’s eyes are solely on suspects Abdelbaset al-Megrahi and Al Amin Khalifa Fhimah. HR

Unstoppable, Prime Video

It may largely hew to the sports movie template of underdog triumphing over adversity, but William Goldenberg’s biopic of one-legged US wrestler Anthony Robles certainly gets under your skin. Jharrel Jerome (I’m a Virgo) plays the Arizona high-schooler who is supremely talented but has to fight to prove himself when he goes to college. His mother, Judy (a spirited Jennifer Lopez), backs him but has her own troubles with an abusive husband, Rick (Bobby Cannavale), and money worries. It’s an inspirational, tear-stained tale, with plenty of clammy grappling (Robles himself is Jerome’s stunt double) and family bonding, building to a tense college championship climax. Simon Wardell
