The Walking Dead: Dead City

9pm, Sky One
The spin-off from the zombie franchise that refuses to die is back for a third series – and immediately gets back to what it does best: kicking infected ass in apocalyptic New York. Bitter enemies Maggie (Lauren Cohan) and Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) are at the point where Negan is literally about to stab Maggie in the back – but an interruption brings a change in events … Hollie Richardson

George Clarke’s Amazing Spaces: First Home

8pm, Channel 4
This new series focuses on affordable, nontraditional homes. Even if it does accept the impossibility of the housing market as a fait accompli, it offers intriguing ideas. This time: Kat, whose bespoke tiny home will cost her £50k; Sean, who is building his own; and a Dutch experiment in regulatory relaxation around construction. Phil Harrison

You’re Killing Me

8pm, U&Drama

There are shades of Murder, She Wrote to this cosy, Maine-set whodunnit, as sleuthing novelist Allie (Brooke Shields) and her gen Z sidekick Andi (Amalia Williamson) casually unmask killers. Their latest case involves the suspicious suicide of a smarmy podcaster’s wife. Can the duo poke holes in his airtight alibi? Graeme Virtue

Live from the Lycett Arms

10pm, Channel 4
More boozy merriment as Joe Lycett’s pop-up pub opens its doors once again. This time, landlord Lycett will be delegating his least favourite tasks to temp manager Mel Giedroyc, while special guest Sophie Willan lounges on a barstool and has a natter. As subliminal chatshow formats go, there have been many worse. PH

New Zealand Spy

10pm, Sky One
The 1970s-set espionage spoof created by Kiwi comic Paul Williams wraps up its first season with a deadpan double bill. With one hapless agent missing and the actually competent Sue (Rose Matafeo) ready to quit, it’s left to Michael (Williams) to don scuba gear and two wristwatches to foil a toxic sabotage plot. GV

The Rainmaker

10.45pm, ITV1
“I guess you’re right about being an acquired taste.” Uh-oh. Is Rudy and Sarah’s romance heading for the rocks? Certainly, last week’s expensive suit gift went down like a cup of cold sick, and episode four puts their relationship under more pressure, when Sarah accidentally lets slip the existence of the hospital’s secret committee.
