Lose a Stone in 21 Days with Michael Mosley, 9pm, C4

Michael and his team of dieters

According to Dr Michael Mosley, two thirds of Brits have put on weight in the past four months, overindulging to combat the stress and worry of lockdown. Well, the doctor has decided enough is enough. Determined to stop our bad habits becoming permanent, he’s come up with a three-part series designed to shift our love handles and boost our immune systems. He’s even doing the diet himself. Michael’s insistence that we need to improve our health to prepare against a possible second wave of coronavirus is hard to ignore.

Harlots, from 9pm, BBC2

TV tonight Harlots

Samantha Morton as brothel madam Margaret

Set in 18th-century London, this eight-part drama (first shown on ITV Encore) centres on the rivalry between two brothel madams. Samantha Morton plays Margaret Wells, who’s desperate to elevate her tired establishment, while Lesley Manville is her rival, Lydia Quigley, who has amassed riches running the high-class House of Earthly Delights. Their rivalry stems from a dark past, which draws in everyone around them in a tale of lust, betrayal and revenge. 

★★★★ HD

Best box set to watch

Black-ish, seasons 1-5, Amazon Prime Video

TV tonight Black-ish

Anthony Anderson and Tracee Ellis Ross star

An entertaining family sitcom that also wittily weaves issues about race into its storylines. African-American couple Dre (Anthony Anderson) and Rainbow (Tracee Ellis Ross) raise their children in a predominantly white neighbourhood. 

Best film to watch on TV tonight

King of Thieves, 10pm, Channel 5

TV tonight King of Thieves

Michael Caine and Ray Winstone star

Against expectations, this big-screen adaptation of 2015’s notorious Hatton Garden Robbery hasn’t turned the gang’s exploits into a cosy Lavender Hill Mob-style heist movie. Instead, you’ll find British national treasures Michael Caine, Tom Courtenay, Jim Broadbent, Michael Gambon and Ray Winstone lobbing f-bombs and c-grenades at one another. Far from being a bunch of lovable rogues, the robbers come across here as fairly nasty pieces of work.

Live sport

  • Cricket: England v Pakistan First Test from 10am, Sky Sports Cricket (highlights, 7pm, BBC2)
