The Good Fight Club
10pm, Sky Documentaries
The stakes are high for charismatic Mixed Martial Arts coach Steve Cooke, who works hard to get his gym’s family of fighters from south London to LA.

Ancient Egypt by Train With Alice Roberts
9pm, Channel 4
The anthropologist concludes her gentle, ASMR-worthy documentary series charting the wonders of the pioneering civilisation. As she journeys from Luxor to Aswan, the focus is on temples, from those restored from ruin to one that was painstakingly moved to a new location to avoid its destruction by the rising Nile – piece by piece. Hannah J Davies
A Better Place
11pm, BBC Three
Part of BBC Comedy’s Short Films strand, here’s a classic sitcom set-up in just 13 minutes: in a Scottish village, the kooky Camerons attempt to rescue their faltering family-run funeral parlour from the conglomerate Sympathy Plus. Bonus points for use of Sparks’ Change as the theme tune. Ali Catterall

Emily, 10.05pm, Sky Cinema Premiere
The romances of the Brontë sisters have fallen out of fashion lately: Andrea Arnold’s rough-hewn Wuthering Heights and the Mia Wasikowska/Michael Fassbender Jane Eyre are the most recent adaptations, over a decade ago. But writer-director Frances O’Connor had the smart idea to make this biopic of Emily, the middle sister and author of Wuthering Heights, as if she and her siblings were characters in one of their own novels. It’s given weight by an excellent Emma Mackey, who handles the shift from wild-child to ardent adult with aplomb. O’Connor takes some liberties with history, but she’s crafted a character study that chimes beautifully with its literary inspirations. Andrew Pulver
The Last of the Mohicans, 3.55pm, Channel 5
It came as something of a shock when master of the flashy urban thriller Michael Mann turned his attention to the prelapsarian era of colonial America for his 1992 adaptation of Last of the Mohicans. The result was, and still is, one of the most romantic and heart-wrenching action films ever. Who could have predicted that Daniel Day-Lewis would pull off playing James Fenimore Cooper’s Hawkeye as a super-sensitive hunk, able to win the day for winsome Cora Munro (Madeleine Stowe), though of course not able to forestall the final tragedy.
