The Great British Bake Off
8pm, Channel 4
Nigella Lawson enters the tent as a new judge and all it takes is her saying “sumptuous” to crack Noel Fielding: “I think I might be pregnant.” Chocolate stout cake is the first task for the eager batch of bakers – with one of them daring to put a twist on Nigella’s own recipe. They then need to recreate a coffee and walnut cake from a picture, before doing their self-portrait cake showstoppers. You will gasp in horror at least twice. Hollie Richardson
Race Against the Tide
7.30pm, BBC Two
In its inherent ephemerality, sand-sculpting requires technical mastery, incredible patience and a philosophical acceptance of entropy. While Rachel and Athena race against the tide in this final episode, Yusuf and Johannes’s ambitious “journey through life” concept seems doomed even before the North Sea walks off with it. Ali Catterall
Emergency 24/7
9pm, BBC Two
The last visit, for now, to the NHS trauma team who always seem to tackle cases designed to show off their excellent organisational skills. This time it’s a man with alcohol withdrawal who might have deeper issues, plus two patients in their 80s whose broken bones cannot, because of their advanced years, easily be mended. Jack Seale
70 Up
9pm, ITV1
It’s the final (ever) part of this epic, revelatory documentary series and, as befits a show that has spanned not only most of our lifetimes but also the lifetime of television as a mass medium, the tone is reflective. This time, we hear from Sue, Bruce, Jackie, Suzy, Peter, John and Andrew as they ponder mortality. Tissues at the ready. Phil Harrison
Paul C Brunson: Red Flag
9pm, U&W
The early warning signs for Ellie and Gareth, who tell their stories in back-to-back episodes of this excellent series, were love bombing and subtle indications of possessiveness. While Gareth was financially and emotionally abused by his girlfriend, Ellie suffered sexual violence. Priya Elan
Tempting Fortune
9.30pm, Channel 4
“Why take the moral high ground when you could have three grand?” This quote sums up this adventure challenge hosted by Rob Beckett in which 12 strangers slog through the Malaysian rainforest, dreaming of a share of £300k but waylaid by temptations ranging from clean clothes to fast food. A show designed to bring out the worst in its participants. PH
