MasterChef Final
8pm, BBC One
It’s time for the final episode of the weirdest, most uncomfortable season ever. If the BBC will be breathing a sigh of relief at the departure of Gregg Wallace and John Torode, the contestants will also be relieved that their big moments in the kitchen haven’t been lost for ever. A champion will be crowned as the BBC prepares to embrace the Grace Dent/Anna Haugh era. Phil Harrison
Susan Calman’s Grand Day Out
8pm, Channel 5
The Scottish comedian’s travel series is surely one of the sunniest programmes on television. This week, she’s scooting through Yorkshire’s “Wallace and Gromit country” in her trusty campervan, to learn about wensleydale cheese, sword-dancing, guerrilla knitting, and much more besides.

Stranded on Honeymoon Island: The Final Flare
9pm, BBC One
Seldom-glimpsed presenter Davina McCall is back for the finale, so this must be a big deal. She’s informing the honeymooners that they must now face one last “flare-out”, or test of their commitment to each other. But with tans fading and real life looming, will it be lasting love for any of these couples? PH
St Vincent at the Proms
9pm, BBC Four
A very welcome chance to see the excellent Prom performed by Annie Clark – AKA St Vincent – who, with composer Jules Buckley, has worked up orchestrated versions of songs spanning the seven albums of her career to date. Clara Amfo presents from the Royal Albert Hall. PH
The Paper
9pm, Sky Max
A very serviceable US Office spin-off prints out a strong double bill, which begins with the temporary residence on the reporting floor of CEO Marv (Allan Havey). As deep-seated attitudes to authority come to the surface and toady Ken (Tim Key) goes into overdrive (“My liege!”), Ned (Domhnall Gleeson) drops a massive clanger. Jack Seale
Mitchell and Webb Are Not Helping
10pm, Channel 4
In their previous foray into sketch comedy, Mitchell and Webb had a skit about the patchiness inherent in the format. This new series embodies that problem: for every scene that lands (a confused teacher and an acclaimed novelist in the wrong century), there’s another that outstays its welcome. PH
Film choice
French Lover (Lisa-Nina Rives, 2025), Netflix
Lisa-Nina Rives’ Paris-set romantic drama relies heavily on the charms of its male lead, Lupin’s Omar Sy, for its success. So there’s a sly irony that those same characteristics – embodied in his pampered film star Abel – don’t really work on the bar worker, Marion (Sara Giraudeau), he meets not-so-cutely. She has her own, unstarry problems, which means their union is a slow burner. But the reassuring narrative of the “boy meets girl” trope does kick in eventually, with Sy convincing as a self-obsessed but lovable actor. Simon Wardell
Seven Psychopaths (Martin McDonagh, 2012), 12.40am, Channel 4
Either a comic interrogation of his own desire to make violent dramas or an attempt to have his cake and eat it, Martin McDonagh’s bleak, chatty comedy concerns a Hollywood screenwriter, Marty (Colin Farrell), who is trying to pen a script called Seven Psychopaths. He’s encouraged by his best mate, dog kidnapper Billy (Sam Rockwell, who always seems to be having a great time), but soon finds fiction and real life overlapping. There’s a shaggy-dog story quality to the film that keeps you on your toes, while Christopher Walken, Woody Harrelson and Tom Waits add heft to the supporting cast. SW
The Southerner (Jean Renoir, 1945), 4am, Talking Pictures TV
The great French film-maker Jean Renoir’s sojourn in the US during the war resulted in six pictures, of which this rural drama is the most celebrated. Oddly, it’s a very American story, in which a Texas farm worker rents a piece of land to fulfil his dream of growing his own cotton. Zachary Scott and Betty Field give natural performances as the Tuckers who, along with their two young kids and grumpy granny, try to make the best of things despite a leaky house, sickness, hostile neighbours and one hell of a storm. A humanist paean to family and community. SW
