The Guardian's nightly television guide highlights the return of Austin, the British-Australian family sitcom starring Ben Miller and Sally Phillips, which airs at 11.10pm on BBC One. The comedy follows Julian, a grumpy children's author, and his relationship with Austin, a neurodivergent man played by Love on the Spectrum's Michael Theo who had claimed to be his estranged son. In the second series opener, DNA results reveal the pair are not a match, prompting them to set off in search of Austin's real father, though the reviewer notes that Phillips as Julian's exasperated wife Ingrid steals the show.

Alongside the sitcom, the guide rounds up the evening's other viewing across several channels and genres. Highlights include a documentary about Northumberland's struggling Ashington AFC (7pm, BBC One), a return visit to Amanda and Clive Owen's Yorkshire farm (8pm, Channel 4), Monty Don presenting Gardeners' World from the first ever RHS Badminton flower show (9pm, BBC Two) and Celebrity Gogglebox (9pm, Channel 4). Film picks span Wicked: For Good, the 1945 noir Leave Her to Heaven and Whitney Houston's 1992 debut The Bodyguard, while live sport features day one of the England v India women's Test at Lord's from 10am on Sky Sports.
