9pm, BBC Two<\/strong><\/p>\n The return of the lovely series in which a group of likable celebrities with different faiths embark on a pilgrimage and share profound moments. This time it\u2019s a 300km hike through the Austrian and Swiss Alps, starting with the Salt Road. It\u2019s a particularly sentimental route for comedian Helen Lederer, whose Czech Jewish father took her skiing there. The group also includes Catholic Traitors star Harry Clark and Muslim journalist Nelufar Hedayat. Hollie Richardson <\/p>\n 7pm, BBC One<\/strong><\/p>\n Paris may be terribly romantic, but by the 1960s the Seine had become so polluted with sewage it was declared \u201cbiologically dead\u201d. Ade Adepitan follows efforts to completely detoxify it ahead of the Olympics (before going for a quick dip himself), while in California Liz Bonnin witnesses the largest dam removal in US history. Ali Catterall<\/p>\n 7pm, U&Dave<\/strong><\/p>\n In 2021, the government raised the maximum sentencing limit for animal cruelty from six months to five years. You may wonder whether that is severe enough after this painstaking but upsetting investigation, in which the RSPCA\u2019s special operations unit and Essex police uncover a dogfighting ring based in Chigwell. Graeme Virtue <\/p>\n 8pm, ITV1<\/strong><\/p>\n A woman is discovered dead in her flat and it looks like a break-in gone wrong, but if that\u2019s the case, why are her phone and laptop the only valuable items missing? As DSI Roy Grace (John Simm) discovers more about the victim, further suspects and leads emerge, all pointing towards one devastating conclusion. Ellen E Jones <\/p>\n 9pm, BBC One<\/strong><\/p>\n This Liverpool-set crime drama has been carried by a magnetic central performance from the charismatic James Nelson-Joyce. There\u2019s an unexpected personal curveball for Michael as Diana (Hannah Onslow) drops a bombshell about her past, while back in gangland, trouble is brewing from an unexpected source. Phil Harrison<\/p>\n 9pm, Channel 4<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/span>Love today \u2026 The Piano on Channel 4. <\/span> Photograph: Channel 4<\/p>\n Sun, sea and sonatas \u2013 these are the three crucial elements for an enjoyable weekend away with the travelling piano at Brighton Station. Claudia Winkleman, Mika and Jon Batiste hope to discover ivory-tinkling talent in a street cleaner and a model railway enthusiast. That is, if they can be heard over the incessant sound of gulls. EEJ<\/p>\n The King Tide, out now, Paramount+<\/strong><\/p>\n Like The Wicker Man from the islanders\u2019 point of view, plus a dash of Celtic myth, Christian Sparkes\u2019s dark fable is a slow-burning treat. A baby washes up in a boat after a storm, and is adopted by Grace (Lara Jean Chorostecki) and Bobby (Clayne Crawford), the mayor of an isolated isle dependent on fishing. Ten years later, the girl, Isla (Alix West Lefler), turns out to have healing powers, as well as the ability to attract large shoals of fish. But when she loses her magic, the community starts to panic about the end of their traditional way of life and demand Isla saves them. A cautionary tale about what happens when a child\u2019s welfare conflicts with the common good. Simon Wardell<\/p>\n Oliver!, 3.40pm, Channel 4<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/span>It\u2019s a fine life \u2026 Oliver! on Channel 4. <\/span> Photograph: Allstar Picture Library Ltd.\/Alamy<\/p>\n Who will buy this wonderful movie? Lionel Bart\u2019s musical version of the Charles Dickens novel sidelines a lot of the novel\u2019s darkness and social edge, but when you\u2019ve got fantastic, earwormy tunes such as Food, Glorious Food, Consider Yourself and You\u2019ve Got to Pick a Pocket or Two it\u2019s hard not to prioritise pleasure. Carol Reed\u2019s colourful adaptation is well served by Ron Moody\u2019s sneaky Fagin and a menacing Oliver Reed as Sikes, while Jack Wild\u2019s spirited Dodger makes up for a relatively insipid Oliver \u2013 a fault of Dickens, not angelic youngster Mark Lester.
