The Split
9pm, BBC One
Abi Morgan’s glossy divorce drama continues, with Hannah’s estranged lover, Christie, returning to London in a blaze of glory – complete with a bewildering rose-tinted, slow-motion entrance. Within 20 minutes, he has given the name of his hotel to Hannah, who is still at loggerheads with Nathan and his new girlfriend (so much for that happy divorce, eh?). Get the popcorn out and enjoy the show’s reliable blend of high-class arguments, romps, well-tailored suits and tearjerking moments. Hollie Richardson
Yorkshire Midwives on Call

Travel Man: 48 Hours in … Cyprus
8.30pm, Channel 4
Joe Lycett whisks Mo Gilligan away to Cyprus for his latest mini-break. They have an eclectic itinerary: halloumi workshops, a salt-and-pepper-mill museum (Lycett’s banter with the bemused curator is wondrous) and sampling gold-leaf ice-cream. This is a lads’ trip you’d actually want to join. Henry Wong

House of Maxwell

The Lego Movie (Phil Lord & Christopher Miller, 2014), 6pm, Sky Showcase
Astoundingly mercenary it may be, but Christopher Miller and Phil Lord’s product-placement-heavy animated comedy is undeniably enjoyable. Chris Pratt adds an air of friendly befuddlement to a caper that riffs shamelessly off The Matrix and uses the limitations of the titular toy bricks for much of its humour. In a highly regulated Lego world, Pratt’s nondescript builder, Emmet, is chosen as “the Special”, a leader who, it is prophesied, will free everyone from the evil Lord Business (Will Ferrell). In this task he is aided by Elizabeth Banks’s Wyldstyle and Will Arnett’s scene-stealing Batman. Simon Wardell
