Tell Me Lies
10.40pm, BBC One
This gloriously soapy and seriously steamy new US drama is easily addictive. Based on Carola Lovering’s juicy 2018 novel, it introduces us to twentysomething Lucy – who, at her friend’s wedding, is anticipating bumping into her ex, Stephen. Cue flashbacks to their toxic and mysterious eight-year relationship. This week’s opening double bill rewinds to them meeting at college. Hollie Richardson

Ben Fogle: New Lives in the Wild
9pm, Channel 5
The lives of more off-gridders are explored by Fogle, who this time visits Dan and Emily – the caretakers of Great Blasket Island off the south-west coast of Ireland. The vibe is very much The Banshees of Inisherin without the pub and, by the looks of it, minus the arson and finger amputation too. Phil Harrison

Then things go sideways when a client’s kitchen refurb disturbs a vengeful spirit with the voice of an angel. Graeme Virtue
What We Do in the Shadows

Arguments over snagging and a few unfortunate incidents with ladders are just some of the obstacles in Nadja’s way as she pursues her ambition of opening a vampire nightclub, complete with blood sprinklers.
