The Eubanks: Like Father, Like Son
9pm, BBC Three
A documentary that goes beyond the boxing, and follows Chris Eubank and his son Chris Eubank Jr in behind-the-scenes footage and candid interviews filmed over the course of a year. They talk about rivalries in the ring, modern masculinity, living with grief after the death of Eubank’s other son, Sebastian, in 2021, and rebuilding a strained relationship with each other.

World’s Most Dangerous Roads
9.45pm, BBC Two
“Vast, remote and brutal” is Stephen Mangan’s accurate summation of Cape York, Australia. He attempts to navigate its roads alongside a perfect stranger: comedian Lara Ricote. It’s a classic, sparky odd-couple road-trip dynamic. Ali Catterall

After a career spent repurposing domestic objects for conceptual sculpture, the 69-year-old Cornelia Parker this year switched to painting for a new exhibition.
