Storyville: The Eternal Memory

10pm, BBC Four

Augusto Góngora was one of Chile’s most prominent journalists. Paulina Urrutia is an actor who served as the minister of culture and arts. They have been together for 23 years – and at the start of this deeply moving film, we see Paulina remind Augusto of this when he wakes up in bed, as his memory is deteriorating after being diagnosed with Alzheimer’s eight years earlier. Oscar-nominated director Maite Alberdi follows the couple as they navigate life. Hollie Richardson

The second half of a documentary that premiered on ITVX last year is very much the fall of Becker, opening in 2000 with divorce proceedings then adding allegations that the ex-tennis star was arrogant, controlling and failed to pay the correct tax on his collection of horses.

“I’m here for the same reason as every single person,” says Rylan Clark from West Ham’s stadium – before we cut to shot after shot of homophobic chanting.
