The Elon Musk Show: The Next Chapter
9pm, BBC Two
Only two-and-a-half years have passed since the BBC's documentary series examined the world's most famous billionaire – but there's a hell of a lot to catch up with in this sequel, most notably the Twitter/X takeover and endorsing Trump before publicly falling out with him. Former school friends, colleagues, associates and insiders give more insight into a man at the forefront of the culture wars. Hollie Richardson
Race Across the World: The Final
8pm, BBC One
They've travelled 11,000km across Europe and Asia – and now it's time for the final hurdle. To get to the Hatgal finish line, the teams can either go off-road on a shorter route or use public transport on a slightly longer one. Who will make the right call and bag £20k? HR
Classic Movies: The Story of Three Days of the Condor
8pm, Sky Arts
In another edition of the documentary series where earnest analysis compensates for a minuscule budget, Ian Nathan leads a dissection of Sydney Pollack's 1975 spy thriller, starting with the memorable early sequence where Robert Redford gets back from lunch to find all his co-workers have been shot. Vietnam, Watergate and the 1970s oil crisis all, we are told, fed into the movie's paranoid tone. Jack Seale
Taskmaster
9pm, Channel 4
After 21 series, Taskmaster often feels more like a comfortingly familiar gameshow than the sadistic celebrity circus it's billed as. Even so, it still has the potential to get weird, and quickly: this week Kumail Nanjiani spins a yarn about herpes, before Joel Dommett has far too much fun with socks. Hannah J Davies
The Hardacres
9pm, Channel 5
“I do hope they haven't forgotten how to cut fish …†As Mary goes full steam ahead with her new adult education classes, Lady Imelda quietly threatens the rags-to-riches success of the Hardacres in this quality period drama. What is her agenda in inviting Ma for a game of bridge? HR
Prisoner
9pm, Sky Atlantic
Amber is reunited with Olly and baby Mia – while Tibor, handcuffs newly severed, is reunited with his estranged, shotgun-wielding mother, Carla. “By the time I was 16, I'd killed three men,†he tells her. “That's what you made me.†Then Olly makes a terrible mistake – and all hell breaks loose. Ali Catterall
Film choice
Glory (Edward Zwick, 1989), 11.40pm, Film4
The film that bagged Denzel Washington his first Oscar brings a necessary spotlight on the history of the 54th Massachusetts infantry regiment – one of the first Black Union army units of the civil war. It's unfortunate that Edward Zwick's drama is told through the eyes, and letters home, of its white commander, Col Robert Gould Shaw (Matthew Broderick). But there is valuable time given to the African American enlisted men, with Washington as the prickly recruit Trip and Morgan Freeman as his wiser sergeant major Rawlins, the pick in a bloody tale of bigotry, heroism and freedom. Simon Wardell
