At 9.50pm on BBC Four, The Sentinels delivers its final two episodes. The French counterfactual thriller about lab-grown super-soldiers in the first world war has stayed convincing; now the political intrigue and action sequences dovetail as the mission to free Mazauric hangs in the balance.
Coastal profiles, Proms debut and Olympic history
Sussex: Jewel of the South Coast (7pm, Channel 5) takes in a lifeguard, a Chichester cleric working to preserve her cathedral, and farmers making artisan cheese. The continuing profile risks alienating every other south-coast county with its title.
Boléro at the Proms (7.55pm, BBC Two), recorded on the day of the World Cup final, marks the Spanish National Orchestra's Proms debut. Chief conductor David Afkham, wearing a Spain football scarf, leads Ravel's Boléro, Rodrigo's Concierto de Aranjuez and de Falla's The Three-Cornered Hat. Nick Mohammed presents.
Hitler's Games: Berlin 1936 in Colour (8pm, Channel 4) uses historians and the offspring of competitors such as Jesse Owens, Audrey Brown and Jack Beresford to tell athletes' conflicted stories of wanting to compete in an event that served as Nazi propaganda. It includes the line: “One hundred thousand spectators rose at once doing the Hitler salute and shouting ‘Heil Hitler’.”
Courtroom drama and Australian ghosts
The Staircase (10.55pm, ITV1) remains tense and gripping as Colin Firth's Michael tries to prove he did not kill his wife Kathleen, played by Toni Collette. The DA's office is building its case, and details from Michael's past may do the prosecutors' work for them.
Ghosts Australia (10.55pm, BBC Three) returns with a double bill. Kate's spooky housemates include Lindy, an 80s aerobics instructor, and Satan, a 90s biker, but will they behave when her mum, Mel, unexpectedly comes to stay? Worse, Mel is threatening to move in.
Films and live sport
Heretic (9.35pm, Sky Cinema Premiere) stars Sophie Thatcher and Chloe East as unworldly Mormon missionaries who visit an avuncular Englishman played by Hugh Grant. A playful debate about religion turns terrifying, and Grant commands the screen in a career-best performance, with enough dark miracles to restore faith in A24's horror output. Scott Beck and Bryan Woods, co-writers of A Quiet Place, wrote and directed.
Love Me (10.25am, Sky Cinema Premiere) imagines millennia after humanity's extinction, when a smart-tech-enabled buoy (Kristen Stewart) floats alone on a half-frozen ocean and emits a “waiting to connect” signal. A passing satellite (Steven Yeun) answers, and together they search the internet to understand life and love. First-time film-makers Sam and Andy Zuchero combine animation and live action, and it is funny too.
Live sport includes day nine of the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow (8.30am, TNT Sports 2) with netball, cycling, boxing and bowls; the Women's Open third round from Royal Lytham (noon, Sky Sports Golf); Glorious Goodwood with the Coral Stewards' Cup (1.15pm, ITV1); the Tour de France Femmes starting in Lausanne, where Giro d'Italia winner Demi Vollering is a big favourite (2.30pm, TNT Sports 1); and Scottish Premiership football as Hearts, last season's unlucky losers, visit Aberdeen at Pittodrie (5.15pm, Sky Sports Main Event).
