The Elon Musk Show: The Next Chapter

9pm, BBC Two
It’s only been two-and-a-half years since the BBC’s documentary examined the world’s most famous billionaire – but there’s plenty to discover in the following series, especially Twitter/X’s take on and endorsements of Trump before publicly confronting him. Old school friends, co-workers, associates and insiders provide a wealth of insight into someone who is at the forefront of the culture wars. Hollie Richardson

World Cup: Finalists

Classic Movies: The Story of the Three Days of the Condor

8pm, Sky Arts
In another edition of the documentary whose honest analysis leads to a small budget, Ian Nathan directs the team of Sydney Pollack’s 1975 spy thriller, starting with the unforgettable opening scene in which Robert Redford returns from lunch to find all his colleagues shot. Vietnam, Watergate and the oil crisis of the 1970s were all, we’re told, fed by the film’s ironic tone. Jack Seale

Taskmaster

9pm, Channel 4
After series 21, Taskmaster often feels more like a popular game than the popular circus it’s called. Despite this, it still has the chance to be amazing, and quickly: this week Kumail Nanjiani spins the thread of herpes, before Joel Dommett is very happy with the socks. Hannah J Davies

Film selection

Glory (Edward Zwick, 1989), 11.40pm, Movie 4

The film that won Denzel Washington his first Oscar brings important information about the history of the 54th Massachusetts regiment – one of the first Black Union militias in the Civil War. It is tragic that Edward Zwick’s play is told through the eyes, and letters home, of his white superior, Col Robert Gould Shaw (Matthew Broderick). But there is an important time dedicated to the enlisted men of the African American, Washington as a wise man’s journey and Morgan Freeman as his wise sergeant Rawlins, chosen in a bloody story of racism, heroism and freedom.
