TV tonight: laughter and horror in a dark new Aussie crime comedy
Tonight's TV picks are led by a new Australian crime comedy, loosely inspired by the BBC's Guilt, following two squabbling siblings who accidentally kill a man and then try to cover it up, only for the victim's niece to start digging into what happened. Also featured are further instalments of the Arctic-set thriller Vigil, with Suranne Jones investigating a murky murder case, and Vicky McClure's bomb disposal drama as a mysterious bombing campaign grips London.
Other highlights include a Proms concert conducted by Marin Alsop showcasing 20th-century American orchestral works, a bleak true-crime documentary concluding its investigation into a teenager left with fatal head injuries amid a gang dispute, the season finale of a horror anthology featuring Dan Stevens, and a Dolly Parton tribute double bill including the 1989 film Steel Magnolias starring Julia Roberts, Sally Field and Shirley MacLaine. Sport fans can also catch Premier League football, with Everton v Manchester United at 1pm and Arsenal v Chelsea at 4pm, both on Sky Sports.
