The Masked Dancer

6.30pm, ITV

Another series of the objectively ridiculous celebrity guessing game sees Peter Crouch bring his dancing expertise to the judging panel alongside Oti Mabuse, Davina McCall and Jonathan Ross. But who are the 12 mystery dancers sweating under those big furry heads? Jack Seale

The Voice UK

8pm, ITV

Viewers might not quite reach the same excitement levels as judge Tom Jones about the 11th season of the long-running talent contest (“I’ve been waiting all year for this!”), but it has undeniably become a Saturday night staple. Jones rejoins fellow judges Anne-Marie, Olly Murs and will.i.am. In tonight’s first blind auditions, a couple who met at university take on a big old classic from Les Misérables. Hollie Richardson

Griff’s Canadian Adventure

9pm, Channel 4

Dr Gordon Giesbrecht, AKA Professor Popsicle, advises Griff Rhys Jones on sub-zero survival methods tonight, as he ventures to the town of Churchill – the polar bear capital of the world. Despite the bears’ cute appearance, one local quips: “You should never sneak up on things that sneak up on things.” Danielle De Wolfe

State of Happiness

9pm, BBC Four

Season two of the low-key Norwegian Dallas – set in a fishing village turned 70s oil boom town – continues with another stylish and soapy double bill. Anna is stressed about her first global oil conference in Stavanger, but divers Christian and Martin loosen up the delegates with some high-pitched helium larks. Graeme Virtue

The Secrets She Keeps

9.20pm, BBC One

The high tension is palpable throughout this typically dark episode of the Aussie thriller – and nobody is left unscathed by the end. Lorelei is served a restraining order, pregnant Agatha is coughing up blood in the prison hospital and Meghan and Jack’s marriage is in tatters. HR

Roxy Music & Bryan Ferry at the BBC

9.30pm, BBC Two

The Beeb digs deep into the archives again, this time grabbing anything that’s captured Roxy Music founder Bryan Ferry doing his thing over the years. Rewinding to the 70s, fans can relive his band’s brand of sophisticated cool, then progress to his solo work. Expect hits such as Do the Strand, Slave to Love, In Every Dream Home a Heartache and More Than This. HR

Film choice

Color Out of Space, 9pm, AMC

Richard Stanley’s psychedelic sci-fi fuses an HP Lovecraft story with classic body horror Society – and then throws Nicolas Cage into the mix to guarantee chaos. He plays an alpaca farmer whose life, and those of his wife and two teenage kids, becomes increasingly nightmarish after a mysterious, glowing meteorite crashes in his garden. Its sickly magenta-purple emanations infect the land, water, flora and fauna, leading to visions, violence and insanity. Cage is a loose cannon but he fits perfectly in a gloriously hallucinatory experience. Simon Wardell
