The Walking Dead: Dead City
9pm, Sky Max
He only debuted midway through The Walking Dead but leather-clad despot Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) made a huge impact on the show by beating beloved character Glenn to death with “Lucille”, a baseball bat wrapped in barbed wire. This new spinoff pairs the now-chastened villain with Glenn’s aggrieved sweetheart Maggie (Lauren Cohan) for an odd-couple rescue mission in zombified Manhattan. Graeme Virtue
Classic Movies: The Story of The Producers
8pm, Sky Arts
Ian Nathan’s deep dive into cinema history this time takes in Mel Brooks’s daring 1967 satire. The film centres on a fraudulent musical, designed to fail by celebrating the life of Adolf Hitler. Which, needless to say, was somewhat near the knuckle coming only 22 years after the end of the second world war. Phil Harrison
Who Do You Think You Are?
9pm, BBC One
“I don’t know if you’ve had anyone who knows as little about their family as me.” Paddy McGuinness, born and bred in Bolton, didn’t even know his grandparents’ names before taking this genealogy journey. Any discovery “is a treat” – and there are plenty ahead. Hollie Richardson
Daddy Issues
9pm, BBC Three
“He was drying his pants in the microwave the other day.” Inviting her hapless dad Malcolm (David Morrissey) to live with her is going as well as can be expected for pregnant and single Gemma (Aimee Lou Wood). Worse still, he’s accidentally discovered dating apps and the world of hook-ups. HR
Interview With the Vampire
9pm, BBC Two
Season two of the ravishing drama based on Anne Rice’s bestsellers resumes. Sibling vamps Louis and Claudia are now embedded with a bloodsucking theatre troupe in post-second world war Paris. Staging gaudy revues is great for attracting prey but Claudia despises being the babydoll star. Dare she defy scary coven leader Armand? GV
10pm, U&Dave
The unstoppable comedian (she even opens the show by declaring she’s “on every bloody thing”) hosts a funny night of disabled performers for a third show. On the bill: Jonny “I’m quite a weird man” Pelham, Lara Ricote and Tim Renkow. HR

Men (Alex Garland, 2022), 11.05pm, Film4
With Daniel Kokotajlo’s Starve Acre due in cinemas soon, it seems that every notable British director nowadays is taking a stab at folk horror. This is Alex Garland’s attempt – a grisly, bizarre tale of misogyny woven through the fertility myths of the green man and sheela na gig. Jessie Buckley stars as Harper, who seeks respite after the death of her husband (Paapa Essiedu) at a rural holiday let. But pretty much every man in the village (all played by Rory Kinnear) – from the victim-blaming vicar to the mute, naked stalker – makes her feel in danger. Heady stuff, with an astonishing ending.
