Millionaire Hoarders 8pm, Channel 4 For anyone who is waiting to discover hidden treasure in their attic, experts Paula Sutton, Clive Downham, Ronnie Archer-Morgan and Rachel Fox are here to provide some inspiration in this new three-part series. In tonight’s opening episode, they help Paula in London sift through a collection of vintage dresses, and Simon and Adity, who have inherited an 800-year-old Scottish castle that costs a fortune to run. Could that really be a painting by John Constable hanging on the wall? Hollie Richardson Reframed: Marilyn Monroe 9pm, BBC Two Created by an all-female editorial team and narrated by Oscar winner Jessica Chastain, this high-end documentary seeks fresh perspectives on an icon of 20th-century cinema. The first part of the double-bill begins in 1954 with the newly ambitious Monroe at loggerheads with Darryl Zanuck, the movie mogul who launched her career. Graeme Virtue Riches 9pm, ITV1 Two big revelations – the identity of the thief and the contents of Stephen’s will – power this explosive finale of a satisfyingly soapy series. While it’s tricky to say who will ultimately seize control of the family’s Black beauty empire, one thing can now safely be assumed: whoever it is will rule with both flair and glory. Ellen E Jones Then You Run 9pm, Sky Max Serial killer the Traveller did not look happy at the end of last week’s episode, and we are finally about to learn how his path crosses with Tara and her girlfriends. But before the gang continue to run across Europe, they need to find Stink. HR The Power of Parker 9.30pm, BBC One Fax machines, Rosemary Conley videos and Babyliss crimpers … Sian Gibson’s 90s-set comedy about two women in relationships with the same man continues, and it turns out that Diane and Kath knew each other well before slimy Martin came along. Will they form an alliance to get revenge? HR Chris McCausland Live: Speaky Blinder 11.05pm, Channel 4 Between 2021 and 2023, the standup comedian Chris McCausland embarked on a mammoth UK tour, concluding at the Shepherd’s Bush Empire theatre in London after a 140-plus-date sellout. Here’s the film of that gig, in which the comedian covers subjects such as childbirth and parenthood, race and his blindness. Ali Catterall Film choice Maggie Moore(s) (John Slattery, 2023), 8pm, Sky Cinema Premiere This amiable US crime comedy (oddly based on an unsolved real case) features a Mad Men reunion of sorts. John “Roger” Slattery directs Jon “Don” Hamm as small-town police chief Jordan Sanders, who investigates the deaths of two women – both called Maggie Moore. We know whodunnit early on so it’s a cops v criminal caper rather than a mystery, with Jordan’s tentative courtship with Andy’s neighbour Rita (Tina Fey) punctuated by acts of violence.
