Tonight's Channel 4 Dispatches sends reporter Matt Shea to scrutinise Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, better known as Tommy Robinson, focusing on the far-right activist's fundraising activities. The programme follows a year-long investigation into public records and documents connected to his finances, probing an area critics have long described as murky. It airs alongside a BBC Two documentary in which grooming gang victims share their experiences, offering a corrective to what the article calls the cynical political exploitation of the issue.

The Dispatches episode airs at 10pm on Channel 4, while the grooming gangs documentary is on BBC Two at 9pm and stresses that neither victims nor perpetrators fit any particular cultural profile, framing it instead as linked to wider criminality and toxic masculinity. Other picks for the evening include Grand Designs-style property show Location, Location, Location at 8pm, a Miranda Richardson guest turn in a post-war detective drama, ITV1's Professor T at 9pm, and a rare BBC Four screening of the 1974 folk-horror Play for Today classic Penda's Fen at 10pm, alongside live cricket and Champions League football coverage.
